For appliances, furniture, tires and other bulky items, Rock County residents use municipal bulk pickup and the Rock County/Janesville Sanitary Landfill and drop-off sites. Janesville offers appliance, tire and metal drop-offs; disposal fees apply. The county's Clean Sweep program handles household hazardous waste.
Bulky-waste handling is split between municipal collection and regional disposal sites. The City of Janesville provides drop-off sites for tires, appliances, metals, motor oil and vehicle batteries and operates the Rock County/Janesville Sanitary Landfill, where general disposal fees are $46.00 per ton or a minimum fee (effective January 1, 2026). Cities and villages arrange their own bulk pickups. Rock County's Clean Sweep program collects household hazardous waste and hard-to-dispose items on scheduled event days (call 608-757-5588). Because bans apply to appliances, tires and electronics, take those to a drop-off or recycler rather than the curb.
Dumping banned bulky items in the trash violates Wisconsin's disposal bans (Wis. Stat. 287.07) and can bring littering forfeitures under 287.81 if abandoned on public or private property.
