E-Cycle Wisconsin Wisconsin's electronics recycling law was signed by Governor Doyle in October 2009 as Act 50. The law establishes a statewide program, now called the E-Cycle Wisconsin program, to collect and recycle certain electronic devices. It is based on a product stewardship approach, which assigns primary responsibility for collection and recycling to the manufacturer. The law also bans certain electronics from Wisconsin landfills and incinerators after September 1, 2010. Who does the law affect? All Wisconsin residents are affected by a prohibition on disposing of designated electronics in a landfill or incinerator after September 1, 2010. Wisconsin's electronics recycling law covers electronics sold to/used by Wisconsin households and K-12 public schools. Electronic devices include; consumer computers, printers, video display devices, computer peripherals, fax machines, DVD players, VCR's and other video players, and phones with video displays. Electronic recycling collectors in the Brillion area include; Best Buy in Appleton and Green Bay, Lamp Recyclers Inc in Green Bay, Milwaukee PC in Green Bay and Manitowoc County Recycling Center in Manitowoc. Residents are encouraged to contact the collector before taking electronics to a site.
