Sign-up opens May 8th for Clean Sweep 2023. Drop-offs will be June 23 in Milton, June 24 in Beloit, and August 26 in Janesville. Open to all Rock County residents. This program is popular and capacity is limited so advance registration is required. Priority chemicals include pesticides, herbicides, mercury, old vehicle fuels, solvents, thinners, wood preservatives, pool chemicals, unknown chemicals, and oil-based paint, to name a few. Latex paint is not accepted.
For a list of accepted materials, year-round recycling for rechargeable batteries, motor oil, electronics, fluorescent bulbs, and a household chemical disposal guide, go to the Rock County Clean Sweep website (https://www.co.rock.wi.us/departments/land-conservation/clean-sweep ) or call at 608-754-6617 ext. 3
Collection of branches, brush and yard waste debris is scheduled from April to October, on the first (1st) full work week of the month. All grass clipping and small yard waste must be placed in a paper bag or a container that can be emptied and placed back onto the parking area. No plastic bags.
Yard waste should not be raked or blown into the street. Please be kind and blow your lawn clippings into your yard for natural decomposing. When the lawn clippings clump together they create major clogs in the stormwater drainage system which can contribute to flash flooding and standing water in the streets.
Curbside leaf collection begins after curbside yard waste collection ends and will continue until snow accumulates or the end of November. Municipal Services requests that leaves are left loose on the curb. You may also take them to the Yard Waste Drop Site, located at 465 Water St (next to the Fire Station).
Curbside tree collection will begin the first workday following Christmas Day and continue until snow accumulates or the end of January. It will then resume in April when the yard waste curbside collection begins.
Hours
Wednesdays: 5-7pm (April 1st through November 1st)
Saturdays: 9am-2:30pm (April 1st through November 18th)
At this site you can dispose of grass clippings, leaves, branches and general yard waste.
Leaves need to be in a bin or paper bags.
Location is at 465 Water Street (next to the Fire Station).
