Television Recycling in Wisconsin
A retired TV isn't ordinary trash. Tube-style sets carry lead and cadmium, and many flat panels contain mercury-bearing glass. Recycle Technologies processes televisions at its New Berlin, Wisconsin facility, so households and companies across the state have a documented, responsible option. Residents can bring sets to our door or ship them through the nationwide Mail-In Program, while businesses can book a commercial pickup.
Television Recycling Services in Wisconsin
Every television we receive is processed at our New Berlin site. Sets reach us in one of three ways: a personal drop-off, a mail-in shipment, or a scheduled pickup for commercial customers.
Our Wisconsin Facility in New Berlin
Our Wisconsin operation is based in New Berlin, in the Milwaukee metro area. It is one of two licensed Recycle Technologies facilities, alongside our Minnesota site, and it reflects the same recycling standards we have followed since 1993. Individuals can bring TVs in themselves, and companies can arrange pickup.

TV Recycling for Wisconsin Businesses
Offices, property managers, hotels, schools, and other facilities can request a commercial pickup for retired televisions. The service is built for organizations, not households. If you're replacing displays across a building or clearing out a site, we can coordinate pickup for larger volumes.
TV Recycling for Wisconsin Residents
If you live in or near the Milwaukee, Waukesha, Madison, Green Bay, or Appleton areas, you can bring your TV to New Berlin and staff will guide you to the right bay. For anyone farther away, the Mail-In Program is available nationwide. Televisions are bulky, so call first to check the best way to send yours.
How the Recycling Process Works
Intake
Bring the TV to New Berlin, ship it through the Mail-In Program, or, if you're a business, book a pickup.
Paperwork
Commercial pickups may come with a hazard consignment note recording who collected the items, where from, how many, and where they went.
Sorting
Sets are grouped by technology (CRT, LCD, LED, or plasma) so each gets the correct handling.
Disassembly
Each TV is taken apart safely, with extra caution for CRT glass because of its lead and cadmium content.
Material Recovery
Glass, plastics, and metals are separated and sent on for recycling instead of landfill, in keeping with our zero-landfill commitment.

Wisconsin TV Disposal Rules
Wisconsin's electronics recycling law restricts how televisions and other covered electronics can be discarded. Since 2010, these items have been banned from Wisconsin landfills, which means old TVs can't simply go out with the household trash and must go through recycling channels.
Rules and collection programs differ by community, so confirm current television disposal and recycling requirements with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and your local city or county solid waste authority before publishing.
