Garbage

Rule

The City does not pick up brush, yard waste or any other kind of refuse. There are four licensed refuse haulers for the City of Edina, with which residents must privately contract for garbage-pick-up. They are:

  • Aspen Waste Systems, 612-884-8000
  • Allied Waste, 952-941-5174
  • Vierkant Disposal, 612-922-2505
  • Waste Management, 952-890-1100

Garbage containers should be set out by the house or garage or at the curb by 7 a.m. on pickup day. After collection, containers must be stored out of view from the front street. 

The City does not pick up compost, tree branches or other yard waste. There are compost and tree branch disposal drop-off sites in the area. Most of those drop-off sites charge a fee. Yard waste is the only refuse that can be placed at or near the curb for collection. Bags of brush and yard waste may be placed at the curb no more than 12 hours prior to collection. Grass and leaves cannot be raked into the street.

If you have questions about disposing of problem waste such as paint, propane gas tanks or florescent light bulbs, visit the Hennepin County Environmental Services website.
