Pellitteri Waste Systems begins new contracts for curbside waste & recycling collection in three Southern Wisconsin municipalities
DANE COUNTY, Wis. (April 30, 2024) — Pellitteri Waste Systems — Southern Wisconsin’s leading independent, family-owned and operated, waste and recycling service provider — started 2024 with three new municipal contracts, bringing the total local communities served by Pellitteri to 42 and more than 76,000 homes serviced weekly.
With the new contracts to serve the City of Monona, Village of Mount Horeb and Village of Poynette, Pellitteri added more than 8,100 new homes for curbside waste and recycling removal.
“As a local, family-owned and operated company, we earn our customers one at a time and are honored to be serving these new communities for their curbside waste removal,” Danielle Pellitteri, Pellitteri Vice President said.
For more information on trash and recycling programs for the NEW municipalities, please visit:
New communities now benefit from Pellitteri’s expanded recycling list because of their ability to sort and process items for recycling that go above and beyond what is required by state law.
- Hot and cold paper cups
- Paper milk and juice cartons
- Metal pots and pans
- Shredded paper properly prepared in clear plastic bags (no larger than a basketball)
- Small metal appliances like toasters and blenders (no larger than a basketball, no batteries)
- Small metal plumbing fixtures, faucets, valves
- Aerosol cans (empty)
“We continue to invest in our infrastructure to provide a high level of recycling for the community as evidenced by our Material Recovery Facility at Kipp Street Station in Madison. We make sure that your recycling is actually being recycled,” David Pellitteri, Pellitteri Vice President said. “We have greater control over how your recyclables are used in addition to exceeding what is required to be recycled by the DNR.”
Along with the new contracts, Pellitteri also began servicing the Village of West Baraboo and Town of Oregon in 2023, and secured contract extensions for the City of Middleton, Town of Middleton, Town of Verona, Village of Fall River and Village of McFarland; all of which will continue to be served by Pellitteri for many years to come.
Pellitteri customers now have a new mobile app that allows users to set up collection day reminders and receive weather-related alerts. The Recycle Right Search Tool provides tips on how to dispose of specific items correctly. Download the app at pellitteri.com/RecycleRight or directly from the Apple and Google Play stores.
