The City of Fargo and MinnKota Recycling Partner for ‘Cans to Cartons’ Recycling Challenge

Fargo, North Dakota – The City of Fargo and MinnKota Recycling will collaborate to promote the “Cans to Cartons” Recycling Challenge in November.

MinnKota Recycling will match all aluminum cans collected in November at The City of Fargo’s recycling locations (see list below) by one cent per pound.

Sites for collecting aluminum cans are situated at:

• The Coliseum – 807 17th Ave. N.
• McKinley Elementary School – 2930 8th St. N.
• Water Treatment Plant – 1408 River Road S.
