DANE COUNTY, Wis. (May 18, 2026) —  Pellitteri Waste Systems — a leading independent, family-owned and operated, waste and recycling service provider — started 2026 with two new municipal contracts, bringing the total local communities served by Pellitteri to 46 and more than 85,000 homes serviced weekly.

With the new contracts to serve the Town of Berry and Town of Springdale, Pellitteri added almost 1,400 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,” said Danielle Pellitteri, Pellitteri Vice President.

New communities now benefit from Pellitteri’s expanded recycling list, which allows it to sort and process more items for recycling than state law requires.

  • Pizza boxes (empty) 
  • 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

“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,” said David Pellitteri, Pellitteri President. 

Along with the new contracts, Pellitteri also renewed contracts to service the City of Wisconsin Dells, City of Monroe, and Village of Shorewood Hills. In addition, Pellitteri secured contract extensions for the Village of Mount Horeb and Village of Poynette, which Pellitteri will continue to serve for many years.
