Residents have been very busy with spring yard clean up and in order to give you plenty of room to dispose of your yard waste we need to make some space at the compost site! The Elk River Compost Site will be closed Thursday and Friday (September 24 and 25), open for the weekend, then closed again Monday, September 28 through Friday, October 2, to allow for a contractor to grind and haul away existing material that has been dropped off over the last several months. We apologize for any inconvenience, and encourage residents to explore other yard waste and compost sites in the area if they need to drop off items during the closure by clicking here.
The Elk River Compost Site is located at 19000 Proctor Road NW, behind the Maintenance Facility. Compost site users must have an access pass which requires them to be a resident of Sherburne County. To learn more, please visit ElkRiverMN.gov/compost.
