The Northwest Cleansweep program was established in 1995 to demonstrate a safe, regional solution for the collection and disposal of hazardous wastes in our northwest Wisconsin region. The program is available free to households and farmers and also provided to agricultural-related businesses and very small quantity generator businesses at reasonable rates. Very small quantity generator (VSQG’s) businesses are those that generate less than 225 pounds of hazardous waste per month or less than 2205 pounds on an annual basis. Agricultural-related businesses include cranberry operations, tree and vegetable farms and other such enterprises. They receive a 50% reduction in disposal costs.
