Wisconsin Law
Wisconsin's recycling law passed in 1990 and bans a variety of material from landfill disposal. Specific items must be reused, recycled or composted. Adams County is the Responsible Unit of Government who is responsible to implement this law within the County. Many Adams County municipalities provide free recycling drop-off sites to their respective County residents, see town transfer sites. The County also provides a wide variety of waste disposal services to help everyone reduce and manage their waste streams safely and properly.
