Small-town disposal spot off Fawn Lake Rd that locals use for household cleanup and regular trash runs. People from Crosslake bring anything from bagged household trash to bulky items here, so expect a steady mix of pickups and cars on busy days.
Drive in from 13034 Fawn Lake Rd and follow the lane toward the main fenced area; the site looks like a working yard with piles, bays, and roll-off containers rather than a tidy retail lot. There’s usually a clear place to pull up and unload, and vehicles often have to stop for a brief check or to get directions from the gate. In winter months the layout can feel more cramped and there may be covered spots or indoor drop-off for harsh weather, so bring boots and be prepared for icy ramps.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a photo ID or proof of Crosslake residency-many local sites ask for it even if signage isn’t obvious.
- Sort obvious recyclables and keep bulky items separated so unloading is quicker and other drivers aren’t waiting on you.
- Avoid weekend afternoons and early spring cleanup times when lines tend to form; midweek mornings are usually the least busy.
