Black Hawk Waste Disposal - Waste Collection and Management

High Winds – Landfill Closed

Due to the high winds, the Black Hawk County landfill closed early.

This has impacted several of our routes due to the inability to dump at the landfill.

If you are a scheduled Monday collection and not picked up as expected, please leave your trash available for collection on Tuesday.

Some Tuesday stops may be affected. If you are a Tuesday stop, please set your trash container out at your normal time, and if not collected, leave it out for collection on Wednesday.
