Vernon County Solid Waste and Recycling

Vernon County Solid Waste and Recycling in Viroqua is the county recycling center folks from town and nearby farms use to drop off household recyclables and small loads. Drivers commonly bring cardboard, paper, glass, plastics and metals; many county centers also host occasional special collections for electronics, appliances or tires.

Think of a no-frills county lot with roll-off containers and a small entrance booth or signs directing traffic. Pull into the lane, have ID handy, and follow the directions to the right bins for paper and cardboard, a metal pile, and separate areas for bulk items. There's often a scale near the entrance or exit, so plan for an extra stop and a little waiting if the line backs up. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, tend to be busiest; weekday mornings usually move faster.
