Safe Burning Tips!

The DNR strongly
discourages individual
property owners from using
burn barrels to dispose of
household garbage, and
prohibits commercial and
government facilities from
using burn barrels.

MANAGING YOUR
AG PLASTICS
Plastic SIlage Bags are
becoming the norm in
farming these days. Deciding
what to do with old or used
ag plastic containers and film
can be difficult. Burning
plastics and most other
garbage - whether in the
open or in burn barrels - is
illegal in Wisconsin.

Bundle and Tie your bags
into small bundles and place
