25 sites in Wisconsin are listed for household hazardous waste: 8 landfills, 5 transfer stations, 4 drop-off centers, 3 C&D landfills, 1 yard waste site and 4 hazardous waste drop-offs. The most are in Dane County (3), Milwaukee County (3) and La Crosse County (2).
14 post hours and 2 publish a fee, and 1 say they serve residents only. A site is listed when its own record names household hazardous waste or it is an HHW drop-off. Limits and fees differ, so call before you load up.
Wisconsin has no paint stewardship law, so there is no PaintCare network of free paint drop-off sites (PaintCare runs programs only in 12 states and DC). Ask your local household hazardous waste program what paint it takes.
EPA lists paint among household products that can contain hazardous ingredients and points people to local household hazardous waste collections instead of drains or, in some cases, the regular trash.

Car (lead-acid) batteries are banned from Wisconsin's trash and landfills. Stores that sell them must take your used battery when you buy a new one; without a trade-in you pay a $10 deposit.
Household batteries: Wisconsin Act 170 (signed April 2, 2026) creates producer-funded free battery recycling, with a battery landfill ban from January 1, 2028. Until then, EPA says keep rechargeable, lithium and button batteries out of the trash.
