Where we work in Cottage Grove
Cottage Grove spans two ZIPs — 55016 and the 55033 edge it shares with Hastings — and we cover both, from the Grey Cloud Channel and Lake Robert side through Gables Lake and Hidden Valley Pond, and around Woodridge, Foothill, Pine Tree Pond and Ideal parks. The riverside end and the newer developments off 80th Street are different jobs entirely.
St. Paul Park, Newport and Hastings are all on the same route.
What Cottage Grove’s own disposal rules mean for you
One thing worth clearing up first: Washington County’s South Environmental Center is on Cottage Grove Drive, but it is in Woodbury, not in Cottage Grove. It is still your nearest county drop-off and it is free for residents with ID.
- South Environmental Center, 4039 Cottage Grove Drive, Woodbury — Tue 11am–7pm, Thu/Fri 8am–4:30pm, Sat 8am–2pm.
- It takes household hazardous waste, batteries, electronics, scrap metal, household recycling and food scraps. Large appliances, mattresses and furniture are not on the accepted list; the county Disposal Directory on 651-275-7475 covers those.
- Minnesota law bars major appliances, CRT electronics and yard waste from household trash (Minn. Stat. 115A.9561, 115A.9565, 115A.931), and Washington County’s trash is burned for energy at the Newport facility — which is why those items have to come out first.
What we actually haul in Cottage Grove
More than 220 completed jobs in Cottage Grove since 2020, spread evenly across every year. Standard junk removal and two-person loads make up nearly all of it — garages, basements and the occasional whole-property clear before a sale.
Cottage Grove junk removal questions
Which parts of Cottage Grove do you cover?
All of it — both 55016 and the 55033 stretch — plus St. Paul Park, Newport and Hastings on the same routes.
Is the county drop-off in Cottage Grove?
No, and the address misleads people. The South Environmental Center is at 4039 Cottage Grove Drive — which is in Woodbury. It is close, it is free for county residents, and it takes chemicals, electronics and scrap metal. It does not list appliances, mattresses or furniture.
Can I put yard waste in with the trash?
No — Minnesota law has barred it statewide since 1990. The same statute family also keeps major appliances and cathode-ray-tube electronics out of household trash.
