 REMINDER TO OUTAGAMIE RESIDENTS, DON'T GET TAGGED!

Plastic bags, batteries, shredded paper and more are too frequently being placed into curbside recycling carts, leading Outagamie County Recycling and Solid Waste (OCRSW) to step up its “Oops Tag” program. Tags are a friendly reminder of what should and shouldn’t be placed into your recycling cart.

 Here’s how it works: When drivers collecting curbside recycling see a cart with material(s) that shouldn’t be in it, they’ll place an Oops Tag on it with a note alerting the resident as to what shouldn’t have been placed inside. Depending on the amount of non-recyclable materials inside the cart, the driver may elect not to empty it to avoid contaminating the entire load. 

For a complete list of what is and what isn’t recyclable, please visit OCRSW’s website. 

BURNING OF LEAVES, BRUSH, CLEAN WOOD OR OTHER VEGETATIVE MATERIALS IN THE SANITARY DISTRICT - The burning of all leaves, brush, clean wood or other vegetative materials in the sanitary district is strictly prohibited.  Any burning of leaves, brush, clean wood or other vegetative materials outside of the sanitary is allowed.   A burn permit is required.

More changes will be made if misuse of the Brush Drop Off site continues.  

RESIDENTIAL TIRE DISPOSAL - Free Tire Day will not take place in 2024 and will be re-visited during the 2025 budget planning session.

Trash & Recycling Container Placement

Please remember to properly place your weekly trash and recycling containers along your street.  The containers should be positioned four feet from the paved road surface for roads with ditches or as close to the backside of the curb as possible for roads with curb & gutter.  Properly placing the containers allows the snow plowing crews to do a better job of plowing and also minimizes the potential for damage to the containers. Garbage and recycling bins should be placed by 5am along the road/curb for pickup.
