There are many locations in North Dakota that residents and businesses can recycle or compost.  If there is not a local program where you are, contact your city council, garbage hauler, public works department or county office to see if a program (or containers/trailer) can be set up to collect recyclable or compostable items in your city or county.  The ND Department of Health has a guide to "Implementing a Recycling Program" on their Web site (www.ndhealth.gov/wm - see publications, solid waste program, recycling).    

See a list of recycling centers/companies by region that collect/market recyclables in North Dakota.  Looking for recycling bins, trailers or labels for your bins?  See our supplies page for links. 

Please let us know (below) if your community should be listed below, or no longer has recycling or composting services and needs to be removed from the list(s).  The lists have been provided by the ND Department of Health's Division of Waste Management staff.
