I know there are 7 for sure. There is the hazardous waste site, 2 metal recycling sites, 1 electronics recycling site, most likely 2 compost sites and 2 cans, glass, tin and newspaper sites. Unfortunately, I do not know their names or addresses. I do know that the hazardous waste site is located just off of 3rd Ave. in North Mankato. The electronics recycling site was located out in LeHillier last time I checked. Good Luck *

Household paints contain tints and chemicals that make them undesirable in today's landfill and dump sites. The current way to dispose of latex paint is to open the can and allow the paint to completely solidify. Then check with your local landfill/dump sites to find out their policies on how to get rid of the cans. Most Hazardous waste collections do not include latex paints, however many of them will take the dried cans as a courtesy. For more information please see the related link below.
