Normandy Roll is the local spot in Duluth where residents bring household and community trash. Neighbors, landscapers and folks cleaning out garages tend to use it for drop-off runs, especially during seasonal cleanups.
The site looks like a typical small municipal transfer area with a drive-up entrance and a staffed booth near the road. Expect to pull up, talk to someone at the booth, and then follow signs or attendants to the drop-off pile or container. There's usually a scale and separate places for recycling and bulky items a short walk from the vehicle, though some parts of the facility are outdoors and exposed to the elements. Weekends and spring cleanup times often have lines, and winter conditions can make the lot icy or slower to move through.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring straps or a tarp to secure loads - winds and steep truck beds can spill material on the drive.
- Aim for a weekday morning if possible; weekends and spring are when lines get long.
- Wear warm, waterproof boots and work gloves in winter - much of the handling can be outside and surfaces get slippery.
