 Another RECYCLING EVENT!!

Due to the unprecedented demand of the October Electronic and Small Appliance Recycling Event, Portage County Solid Waste has teamed up with Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations and Vizio to offer Portage County residents a second opportunity to properly recycle electronics and small appliances. Residents will be able to recycle items for free on Saturday December 2nd from 8:30 to 2:30 BY PRE-REGISTRATION at the Portage County Transfer Facility in Plover. To reduce traffic congestion and wait times, all participants must pre-register by noon on December 1st. A very limited number of weekday appointments leading up the December 2nd event are available.
