Recycling & Garbage
Dakota Valley Recycling
Burnsville’s recycling department is called Dakota Valley Recycling (DVR). DVR is a partnership department shared with the Cities of Apple Valley, Eagan, and Lakeville. DVR connects residents and businesses to recycling, composting, and waste disposal information. Dakota Valley Recycling is not a drop-off facility and does not accept any materials for recycling.
Visit the Dakota Valley Recycling website for detailed recycling information.
Setting Up Recycling and Garbage Service
The City licenses companies to collect garbage and recycling for residents; the City itself does not pick up trash and recycling. Residents are responsible for contacting haulers and setting up their own recycling and garbage services. Residents can choose from any of the licensed haulers listed below.
2020 Residential Hauling Starting Rates
The following rates were submitted by each garbage and recycling company licensed in the city, and are valid for 2020 for residential customers in Burnsville.
- These rates are for weekly curbside garbage pick up and every-other-week curbside recycling pick up unless otherwise noted.
- Taxes, surcharges and additional services are not included in price.
- Yard waste service is optional, and is in addition to the garbage and recycling price.
- Rates are determined by the size of garbage container you choose.
- Recycling service is always included.
- Small, medium and large-sized recycling containers may be available (inquire with your hauler).
- Unlike garbage, choosing a larger-sized recycling container will never increase your monthly rate.
Note: The City of Burnsville does not negotiate hauling rates with licensed residential haulers. The haulers licensed in the City are free to set their own rates for service. The rates listed below are starting rates, and may change over time.
