New option for Chisago County recyclables in Forest Lake

Chisago County residents now have a second option for proper disposal of household waste, recyclables and later — organic compost products. Chisago County commissioners recently approved an agreement with Washington County to allow for Chisago residents to use the newest Washington County recycling center, at no fee to Chisago residents. The center opened December 18 and is located near the Headwaters complex, off Hwy 61, south of the Forest Lake downtown. There is a covered drive-thru drop-off and when weather warms the 35 acre site will also feature organics composting.
