How to Dispose of Water Heater in Milwaukee, WI
In Milwaukee, water heater follows the same verified program pathway as refrigerator. Milwaukee does not collect appliances on bulky item pickup. Take refrigerators and other appliances to City Drop Off Centers — South (3879 W Lincoln Ave) or North (6660 N Industrial Rd) — with photo ID and Milwaukee residency proof; load fees are by volume. MMSD hazardous-waste sites do not accept appliances. Keep Freon sealed; never vent refrigerant yourself.
