COVID-19 Operational Procedures

​

For the health and safety of our visitors and our site workers, we have made the following operational changes to our Household Hazardous Material Facility collections.​

​

• All materials must be located in the trunk, hatchback, or truck bed of the vehicle.  Material may also be delivered in a trailer.  Please call at least 48 hours in advance if you plan to drop off a truck-full or trailer-full of material.  

• No material will be removed from the front seats or back seats of the vehicle.

• Driver and passengers must stay in vehicle at all times.  Site workers will remove material from your vehicle.

• The Product Exchange Room is closed for the season.  No material collected at this Facility will be returned to the public.

• Our site workers will be working in additional Personal Protective Equipment.  

Out-of-county materials are not accepted at this facility.  Residents of neighboring counties may have access to local Clean Sweep collection events or county-run programs.  More information is available at the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Clean Sweep website.
