Washington County issued the following announcement.

Washington County satellite weekend household hazardous waste collections are planned for 2022, in spring and fall, for county residents.

The first event of 2022 will be 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, April 16, at the Hugo Public Works Garage, 6900 137th St. N., Hugo.

Satellite collections bring the services offered at the Washington County Environmental Center closer to residents, making it more convenient and practical for them to recycle and dispose their household hazardous waste and electronics.

Confidential document shredding will be available at all events.

In addition to the satellite collection events, six dates have been set for confidential paper shredding at the Washington County Environmental Center, Wednesdays 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.:

  • April 20;
  • May 25;
  • June 22;
  • Aug. 3;
  • Sept. 28; and
  • Nov. 9.
In addition to remote-site collections, the Washington County Environmental Center, 4039 Cottage Grove Drive in Woodbury, provides residents with a free and convenient disposal option for household hazardous waste, electronics, and recyclables all year round.

It is open Tuesday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Thursday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Friday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The center accepts household hazardous waste, electronics, and recyclables. The center also has a Free Product Room, in which residents may browse the shelves and take home previously-owned products such as paint, stain, automotive supplies, household cleaners, and other products. All items taken to the Environmental Center are inspected to determine if they are usable products.
