Common Council

The Streets Division's drop-off site located at 1501 W. Badger Rd will be closing on March 25, 2022 for a construction project.

Residents will not be able to use the Badger Rd. drop-off site while it is closed for construction.

The site will remain closed until at least the spring of 2023.

Closing Badger Rd will create many changes to the drop-off site services provided by the Streets Division. The below information provides an overview of these changes and alternative drop-off locations besides the Badger Rd location.

You can also read about all these changes at our drop-off sites website, www.cityofmadison.com/DropOffSites.

402 South Point Rd Will Replace 1501 W. Badger Rd
Drop-off services currently available at the Badger Rd facility will be moved to 402 South Point Rd .

The South Point Rd. drop-off site will be open for business at 7:30am on Tuesday, March 29, 2022.

You will not be able to pay for recycling fees for the items that require one in person at South Point Rd. If you are dropping off an item that requires a fee, you should use the work order system and pay for it in advance.

Stickers will be mailed to you after the purchase. Items requiring a fee must have the stickers attached to them before they will be accepted.

South Point will be open from then through the remainder of the year and through the winter of 2022-2023.

New Temporary Drop-off Site at 121 E. Olin Avenue
A special additional drop-off site open only on evenings and weekends will be in place at 121 East Olin Avenue. This site will open on April 4, 2022 at 3:00pm.

This drop-off site location will close for the winter of 2022-2023.

Also, this drop-off site is the same location as the waste transfer and brush processing facilities. It is critically important for your safety and Streets Division operations that you visit Olin Avenue only during the posted times.

West Side Streets Office Remains Opens
The Streets Division office located at 1501 W. Badger Rd will remain open for resident questions and assistance, like help with setting up a large item work order or purchasing a fee sticker to drop-off an items at the remaining sites.

Why is the Badger Rd drop-off site closing?
A construction project to demolish and rebuild the salt storage facilities at the Badger Rd drop-off site will get underway this year.

Due to the construction, there will not be sufficient space to operate a drop-off site safely.
