After September 1, 2010, all Wisconsin residents must abide by the Wisconsin Electronics Recycling Law. Wisconsin residents are prohibited from disposing of specified electronics in landfills or incinerators. While a fee may still be imposed by collectors or recyclers for the recycling of the electronic device, this law was designed to make recycling easier and more convenient statewide.
A full list of manufacturers already signed onto the program as well as electronic devices covered under this law is available at the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources WDNR website.
The following will be banned from collection beginning August 30, 2010:
Many retailers in Wisconsin already collect electronics for proper disposal. In the Green Bay/Brown County area a variety of options already exists. As a note, some collectors may charge a fee for some or all of the types of electronics accepted under their program.
This prohibition is imposed on any person, business or entity in Wisconsin. This is a statewide ban no matter the origination of the devices households, schools, businesses, governments and institutions included.
