Gogebic Range Solid Waste Management in Ironwood is the local solid waste facility off US-2 that people use for larger cleanups, yard debris and drop-off recycling options that neighborhood pickups don’t handle. Handy for residents with trailers or bigger loads, it’s the place most locals head to when curbside won’t cut it.

Expect an outdoor working yard with heavy equipment and trucks moving about; these sites are not quiet places. Many facilities like this have an entrance booth and a scale, so plan to pull up, wait your turn, and then move to the appropriate drop-off area. Recycling containers are often grouped near the entrance while bulk piles or larger containers sit farther back. Weekends-especially during spring cleanup-tend to be busier, so lines can form at the gate and at unloading spots.

Before You Go

  • Separate recyclables, brush and household trash before getting to the gate to speed unloading.
  • Have license/ID handy and secure loads so nothing blows out while driving on US-2; many local sites ask for proof of residency.
  • Avoid peak weekend times if possible and bring basic straps or tarps for loose material-trailers shift and the wind on the highway can be unforgiving.
