Recycling in Green Bay, Wisconsin

Green Bay Public Works collects single-stream recycling in a blue cart, with paper, plastic, glass, and metal loose together under a closed lid. Bulk household items go out only during the city's scheduled overflow trash and bulk weeks. Brown County Port and Resource Recovery runs the rest from two sites: the Hazardous Material Recovery Facility at 2561 S. Broadway and the Solid Waste Transfer Station at 3734 W. Mason Street.

Frequently Asked Questions

What goes in the blue recycling cart in Green Bay WI?

Paper, cardboard, cartons, plastic jugs and containers of any number, glass bottles and jars, steel and tin cans, aluminum cans, and empty aerosol cans go in together, loose. Rinse containers, put caps and lids back on, and cut cardboard to size. Plastic bags, wrap, and film stay out, including blue biodegradable bags. Foam, shredded paper, paper towels, receipts, foil pans, and drinking glasses go in the trash.

Where do I take household hazardous waste in Green Bay?

The Brown County Hazardous Material Recovery Facility at 2561 S. Broadway takes hazardous waste from county residents on Tuesdays, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and Thursdays, noon to 6:00 PM. It accepts paint, gasoline, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides, fluorescent lights, electronics, cooking oil, propane tanks, and antifreeze, with fees for batteries and small appliances. It refuses ammunition, flares, sharps, and pharmaceuticals. Call 920-492-4950.

When can I put bulk items at the curb in Green Bay?

Only during the city's scheduled overflow trash and bulk household item weeks, listed in the 2026 collection schedule. During those weeks, anything over 2 cubic yards of bulk items or more than 4 bags beside your cart gets picked up and billed. Bulk waste, construction waste, or extra bags set out at other times cost $105 up to 3 cubic yards, $210 up to 10, and $315 over 10 (2026 rates).

Where do I take construction debris in Green Bay?

Green Bay does not collect construction, remodeling, or demolition waste at the curb. Haul construction debris to the Brown County Transfer Station at 3734 W. Mason Street, pay the dumping fee, and bring a high-visibility vest or shirt. A contractor who leaves debris at the curb sticks the property owner with the city's full removal bill.

What if my cardboard is soggy in Green Bay?

Yes, soggy cardboard still recycles. Put what fits in your blue cart and take the rest to the Brown County Recycling Center at 2561 S. Broadway (920-492-4950). Do not stack it next to the cart, because crews leave anything outside the cart behind.

Recycling tips for Green Bay

  • •Sanitation carts set out before your pickup day draw a $66 early set-out invoice.
  • •Trash in the recycling cart or recycling in the trash cart earns a violation notice, then an invoice if it continues.
  • •Large appliances, including anything with Freon, go to the Mason Street transfer station, not the hazardous waste site on Broadway.
  • •Every city invoice goes to the property owner, so landlords pay for a tenant's early set-out or curb dumping.
  • •Keep personal property away from the curb on pickup day, because crews treat it as trash and the city can bill the owner.
