Swift County - Solid Waste Management Plan

We invite you to comment on the solid waste management plan for Swift County.


Swift County submitted a solid waste management plan to the MPCA that proposes an integrated solid waste management system. The solid waste management plan states that over the 10-year planning period of 2025-2034, Swift County will:


- generate approximately 10,500 tons of municipal solid waste annually


- send waste to the Dakota Sanitary Landfill, located near Gwinner, North Dakota, for final disposal


- reach a recycling rate of approximately 52% through county-wide curbside collection as well as rural drop sites


- facilitate waste reduction, recycling, and segregation of problem wastes from the waste stream


- collect household hazardous waste at its annual collection day and twice-weekly dropoff at the regional collection site


- encourage and support yard waste management at four drop-off sites throughout the county


Minnesota counties and solid waste management districts outside the seven-county metro area are required to prepare and implement detailed solid waste management plans every 10 years. Visit our website for more information about Solid waste management plans.
