What it costs

This is a national program drop-off. National programs typically accept the manufacturer's own brand free of charge, with fees on third-party items or oversized goods (CRT monitors, large appliances). Confirm pricing with the location before drop-off.

Wisconsin e-waste law

Wisconsin's E-Cycle Wisconsin (Wisconsin Statute Chapter 287.17) (2009) governs how electronics must be disposed of in this state. The law uses an manufacturer-funded recycling and covers computers, monitors, laptops, TVs, printers, fax machines, e-readers, DVD players.

Fee structure: Free to households, K-12 schools

Penalty for illegal disposal: Up to $25,000 per day per violation

Key requirements: Landfill ban since 2010 for covered devices. Manufacturers must register and report annually.

Before you visit

**Preparing your e-waste:** factory-reset phones, tablets, and laptops before drop-off (most facilities will not perform data wiping for you). Bag loose batteries separately. Bring proof of residency if the program is municipality-funded. Check whether the site accepts the specific item you're bringing - acceptance varies widely.

Used electronics still hold recoverable value: gold connectors, copper bus bars, palladium in catalytic surfaces, and aluminium cases. Responsible recycling sends those materials back into the supply chain instead of into landfill.
