Manitowoc County Recycling

Is nice to have a place to bring leaves and such and to know it's also going to a good purpose

Manitowoc County has a great recycling center and services available for residents of the county.

Very nicely kept and convenient.

Friendly workers great price

They used to take rechargeable batteries for free and you could drop off cans, bottles and paper 24/7. Not anymore. You can drop off your old NiCd's and CFL's at Lowes for free. OfficeMax also does fixed priced boxes for e-waste, so basically I only stop here now to drop off yard clippings. I'm just waiting for the day when they start locking up the compost area too, making it even more inconvenient. One tip for large e-waste items: You get a cheaper rate if you disassemble your items and take in the purely electronic parts. You can take the scrap metal and pitch it in the dumpster at Sadoff Iron. They no longer pay you anything unless you have over 200 pounds of steel. Lame

Make sure to precheck what is accepted here before you assume it will be as it once was. Also, be sure to check the times they are open, as that too, isn't what it had been. Not so user friendly for some.

The hours are not very convenient for most people
