WISCONSIN - With Christmas now past and, the time when all the pretty paper and other wraps go into the recycling bins…Wisconsin mandates recycling of flattened cardboard (no Styrofoam/air pillows), rinsed (not crushed) plastic #1/#2, aluminum, newspapers, and glass. DNR Coordinator Jennifer Semaru emphasizes proper sorting. Acceptable wrapping paper must be plain, flat, tearable, and free of glitter, foil, and ribbons; crushing or bows often lead to rejection. Reuse gift bags. Do not place tissue paper, string lights, electronics, or batteries (fire hazard) in curbside bins. Recycle string lights at local retailers/scrap yards, and drop off electronics/batteries at designated sites. Find a complete list at dnr.wisconsin.gov and search recycling.
