The Rural Waste Survey
Registering: Please scan, or enter the link provided, to register for the rural waste survey. The online form will ask for some basic information that will help the County determine how many County citizens use the program.
Disclaimer: The information collected will only be used by Winneshiek County IA and solely in conjunction with the Rural Waste Collection System.
Since the system uses your license plate number for verification, you may need to enter multiple license plate numbers, either initially or by re-registering. Note: Only the plate number, your name, and address are required when registering.
How the System Works: When you dispose of your waste, the site monitors will enter your license plate number. The system will then associate your license plate number with your registration information and this data will then give decision makers insight into who and how much the collection system is utilized.
Thank you for participating. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact the County, using the information listed below.
Call 563-277-5288 and leave a message with your name and number.

FY25 Proposed Budget
Winneshiek County Public Survey
Winneshiek County will begin the process of updating the Winneshiek County Multi-Jurisdiction, Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan (due every 5-years). This plan is a FEMA requirement for any eligible applicant wanting to receive hazard mitigation dollars after a Federally declared disaster. We will once again be creating a multi-jurisdictional plan. Upon completion of the county plan, each municipality, school, etc. can simply adopt the plan in leu of creating their own individual plan. This not only saves time but taxpayer dollars as well.
The more community input our committee can obtain, the better Winneshiek County’s plan will become.
