Dumpsters & Haulers

The Black Hawk Sanitary Landfill accepts waste from the cities and counties within the landfill’s service area. The Black Hawk County Solid Waste Management Commission does not collect any materials and they do not operate any waste hauling vehicles. Dumpsters and haulers must be contracted through a private company or your city (if this service is available).

 

Dumpsters and Haulers for Rural Homes and Individual Home Projects

Cities provide waste collection, recycling programs, and other services specifically for their city residents, but some may also provide large item pickup, cleanup events, or dumpster rentals. Policies and programs differ. Contact your city hall or public works department for your city’s specific policies.
