Vernon County Solid Waste/Recycling Facility in Viroqua, Wisconsin is the place locals use when curbside bins won't do-bring larger loads or items that need a drop-off. People from town and nearby farms turn up with trailers or full trunks.
Pull up and you’ll see a small entrance area where there's often a booth or scale; many county sites operate that way, so expect a short pause before driving in. The lot is mostly outdoor containers and skips, and common materials accepted at recycling centers like this include paper, cardboard, glass and cans, with occasional special collections for things such as electronics or appliances. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup season, get backed up, so lines are normal then. Most folks sort their haul in the vehicle before unloading to make the drop-off go faster.
