Recycling Center
The Town of Rhine Recycling and Collection Site is open as follows:
When?
THE SITE IS NOT OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC ONLY TO TOWN OF RHINE RESIDENTS.
It would be appreciated when you bring in a larger item (TV stand, dresser etc...) if you would knock it down as flat as possible to take up less space in the dumpsters. This would also be helpful when bringing in cardboard boxes. The more we get in the dumpsters, the less it costs us in transport charges. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Fluorescent green ID Tags were mailed to each property owner in December 2020. If you have not received yours, please contact the Town Hall Office at 920-876-3413. Lost, stolen or replacement tags are available for a fee of $20.00. Tags must be presented upon entering the Collection Site.
