Drop-off sites (original) (raw)
Recycling Fees
There are recycling fees for some large items, appliances, and electronics. You need to pay these fees before you drop off your items.
If the City of Madison collects your recycling, you do not need to pay recycling fees. The fees are covered on your Municipal Services (water) bill, under Resource Recovery Special Charge.
Paying recycling fees
If your item has a recycling fee and Streets does not collect your recycling, you need to buy a fee sticker before you come to the drop-off site.
We will mail you a recycling fee sticker. Put the sticker on your item before bringing it to the drop-off site.
You can also buy fee stickers at the Streets East or Streets West offices during office hours. (Office hours are different than drop-off site hours.)
