Helping protect our environment in SE Iowa since 1990!

We Want to Help

Established in October 1990, the commission is dedicated to providing its member communities with environmentally sound, fiscally responsible solid waste disposal and resource recovery services. The commission operates the Area Recyclers facility in Burlington as well as the Des Moines County Regional Landfill and the HazChem Center in West Burlington. The commission is governed by a board made up of representatives appointed by each member community. Currently, there are 11 voting commission members with some members electing to have “non-voting” status.
