The people are nice and try their best to move the line quickly. Lots of room to unload. Easy to get to.

Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, on the very busiest days the staff directs and keeps an efficient traffic flow.

Visited the Midway Yard Waste Collection Site on a rainy day in October 2016, as part of trips to different waste processing sites around Saint Paul. Every few minutes a car (or more often, a pickup truck) came by to drop off a load of tree trimmings, bags of raked leaves, or bags of compost/organic waste. There were also new compost bags in large or small size available to take, which is neat because for many residents hoping to compost from their home kitchens, the requirement of dropping of your compost in a certified compostable bag can be a barrier. The volume of the piles of trees and leaves were incredible, and the guide said those were from just one day! I had heard of this site as a place where people can go to collect tree branches they might wish to use for a project, but that is apparently no longer the case, as a precaution for controlling the spread of emerald ash borer beetles outside their quarantined area.

Convenient, fast, with friendly staff, good upkeep, and clear signage. My extended family's preferred leaf/grass dump for 20+ years.
