What CAN’T be recycled curbside?

We would love to recycle everything but there are certain items that can’t be accepted.

Need a Cart?

At this time, carts are not available in all of Marquette County. 

Contact your municipality for cart availability and pricing.  If you don’t have a cart, place recyclables curbside in a hard-walled bin, can or receptacle. 

Please, do not place recyclables in plastic bags.
