Racine disposal programs
Items that share the same official city or county source are grouped here. Alias items open this program section; core guides stay on their own page.
Bulky pickup in Racine
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Racine charges a published $25 per bulky item for mattresss. Pay the fee and use the Transfer Station at 6300 21st Street or the scheduled pickup service. Keep chemicals off the pile — HHW has its own Saturday dates.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Racine collects household hazardous waste on the third Saturday of the month from April through October at the Transfer Station, 6300 21st Street — the site is not an everyday chemical depot. Bring motor oil sealed in its original container on one of those Saturdays and store material safely during the November–March off-season.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Wisconsin's E-Cycle law bans TVs, monitors and computers from landfills, so Racine e waste mixed goes to the Transfer Station electronics area or a registered E-Cycle collector. Screens carry posted fees. Wipe personal data first.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Construction debris goes to the Racine Transfer Station, 6300 21st Street, at posted tipping fees — it is not covered by the $25 bulky item rate. Route paint to an April–October HHW Saturday.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Racine recycling carts do not want expanded polystyrene (EPS). White block foam, packing peanuts, and food trays are different streams. Grocery film/bag bins are not a foam drop-off. City of Racine — Bulky Waste is the official Racine program we verified — if that page only mentions plastic bags or film, treat block foam and food trays as bagged garbage unless it names a foam densifier. Clean peanuts may be reused at a shipper; starch peanuts are not EPS.
