Gertens Landscape Supply & Yard Waste Recycling

Ken Reineccius 6 months ago

Always friendly and helpful. We drop off yard waste and buy landscaping materials every summer. We feel it is a fair and convenient option for our yard needs.

Over priced, went out of convenience because the jobsite was 10 minutes away; won't happen again. Was charged $175 to dump brush out of a 16×7 dump trailer and was $50 for the same amount at Shakopee Organic for the same amount of brush. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Great place to recycle your yard waste or even concrete pieces or pavers, etc. It's $1.25 per bin (I use a garbage can) or $0.75 per Gertens bag. I rely mainly on the bin, as my yard waste tends to dampen the bags rendering them useless. My only complaint would be what they charge for a trailer load (usually tree parts or branches). If I had enough of them, I could fit 15 garbage cans in my 6x10 trailer which would cost roughly $20 to recycle if filled. They charge at least $40 per trailer. I'd also admit that to fit tree parts in the cans there would be more work to do that, but then a lot more volume would be available (lots of empty space with branches). I was there recently and a guy had a tiny flatbed trailer that was 3'x5' and loaded with branches as tall as a man. I estimated if I cut it into small pieces it could have fit in about 8 garbage cans or $10. They charged him $40. Finally, when I lived up north (3 years ago) this was a free service. I mean, they turn it into products they can use or sell like mulch or dirt so I just think they should lower their price on trailers or larger loads.

Bad service Went for the first time with tandem axle dump trailer to dump brush. price was $175 which seems steep however for convenience I dumped here. I had another half load to dump later and the attendant told me that they have to see it but they would do the half load. Upon arrival with the second trip I was charged $175 for a full load which I paid and before I dumped I took this picture and saw that it wasn’t even close to full. I decided to go back to attendant without dumping and told them I to take a look and it’s clearly half of a load and he said that they don’t take half loads. I told him the other employee stated they do and he denied that. Basically the employees seem uneducated on their own practices, (the employee couldn’t process the return on his own and seemed annoyed with my presence.) At the end processed a refund because I am not paying $175 for a half load of logs and brush, there is other options out there than going to places with bad practices. Afterwards I told them to keep their people in check due to the miscommunication in their prices. Not going back because they wasted so much of my time. If one employee decided to be kind it would’ve changed my re

Love this place. Everyone is super friendly every year I drop off my yard waste. I don’t mind paying $1 a bag. It’s a great price when you don’t have many tress in your yard. I mostly dispose of my zinnia plants every year. Thank you
