A Reuse Event will be held on May 5, 2024. The City, along with Anoka County, will be accepting reusable household items in the Reuse Tent located in the Ham Lake City Hall parking lot, on Saturday, May 4th from 8:00 a.m. to noon and again from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Residents can drop off usable sporting goods, household goods, furniture and more! Items will be offered free for the taking on Sunday, May 5th. There is no requirement to bring items in order to take items. More information about this event can be found at AnokaCountyMN.gov/Reuse. Questions? Reach out to Anoka County at 763-324-3400 or email recycle@anokacountymn.gov. The weight of items taken by "shoppers" will be applied toward the City's 2024 reuse/recycling tonnage goal.
