Roll-off and dumpster providers are licensed as commercial trash service.
Weekly recycling service is provided by Eureka Recycling.
Reduce Trash. Save Money
Reduce the amount of waste you generate and save money by getting a smaller garbage cart from your hauler. Trash haulers are required to offer different size carts so get only the size you think you need. The smaller the cart, the less you will pay for trash collection.
Recycle All You Can
Recycling is exempt from taxes. If you recycle more, you may be able to use a smaller garbage cart and increase your savings. To find out more about recycling, see Roseville's Recycling webpage or call 651-633-EASY (3279), answered 24/7. There are more items that can now be recycled including many types of plastics, metal cans, glass bottles and jars, and all types of paper.

Questions to Ask Your Hauler:
1. Where does my garbage go?
It is important to keep waste out of landfills. Haulers are required to inform their customers in writing each year where they take their waste for disposal. Waste in Ramsey County is required to go to the Recycling & Energy Center in Newport.
2. Are there additional charges I may see itemized on my bill?
Some haulers charge additional fees such as a fuel charge or environmental fee but do not include these in the rate you are quoted.
3. How do I get rid of extra items that do not fit in my cart and what will it cost me to get rid of items?
Call your hauler to check if they can pick it up from your curb, or take anytime to any of the transfer stations listed below. Please call ahead to check hours of operation and charges.
