Duluth disposal programs
Items that share the same official city or county source are grouped here. Alias items open this program section; core guides stay on their own page.
Bulky pickup in Duluth
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Duluth mattresss go to the WLSSD Materials Recovery Center, 4587 Ridgeview Road, at posted per-item fees. There is no free citywide bulky day, so plan the haul or hire a private hauler. Keep chemicals separate for the HHW site.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Take motor oil to the WLSSD household hazardous waste facility, 2626 Courtland Street, Duluth — a permanent site that accepts household quantities free from district residents. Note this is a different address from the Materials Recovery Center on Ridgeview Road. Confirm hours on wlssd.com before you drive over.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Duluth e waste mixed goes to the WLSSD Materials Recovery Center, 4587 Ridgeview Road, rather than the trash — screens carry posted fees. Wipe personal data first.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Duluth recycling carts do not want expanded polystyrene (EPS). White block foam, packing peanuts, and food trays are different streams. Grocery film/bag bins are not a foam drop-off. WLSSD — Hours & Facilities is the official Duluth program we verified — if that page only mentions plastic bags or film, treat block foam and food trays as bagged garbage unless it names a foam densifier. Clean peanuts may be reused at a shipper; starch peanuts are not EPS.
