Other notes

  • Rates effective January 1, 2026 (2026 rate resolution, updated January 2, 2026). Payment: cash, checks and credit cards.
  • Source note: in the rate resolution PDF, the "No Charge" entry sits between the untreated wood, trees and pallets line and the Fargo-resident transfer station line, so it is unclear which it applies to. Confirm at the scale.
  • In very windy conditions, loads with paper and lightweight materials may be turned away; heavy materials such as wood are still accepted.
  • General questions: 701-241-1449.
