Evergreen Recycling

53465 Forest Blvd

320-358-3988

Weekdays 8am to 4pm, Saturday 8am to 12pm

The Bergfalk family bought a small Rush City recycling company in June 2007, and it now employs 13 people and averages about 20,000 mattresses, 300,000 pounds of electronics, and 700 tons of scrap a year over the last four years. Mattresses, electronics, tires, and household and commercial appliances are the core streams, and the yard buys aluminum, copper, brass, and lead-acid automotive and marine batteries at market price. There is no drive-on scale, so steel is not purchased and comes in as a free drop-off. Minnesota requires a copper sellers license to sell copper. The crew also picks up recyclables and cleans up properties at homes, farms, and businesses. The building runs on a 19.1 kW solar installation and heats with converted used oil, and the yard is open weekdays 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday morning.
