Harter’s Quick Clean Up built a state of the art recycling center at the end of 2013.


This recycling center or Material Recovery System (MRF) has lead to increased recycling capability for the greater La Crosse area. The 19,500 square foot building has an attached loading dock with 4 shipping bays. Our proximity to I-90 allows for easy shipping and receiving. We are using state art design and automation to make the plant as efficient as possible. Our facility is set up to separate 10 different materials at the same time. Our MRF is able to process up to 10 tons of residential commingled recycling per hour.

Our Facility has the ability to handle large amounts of commercial and industrial recycling as well. If you or your company is looking to recycle more, give Harter’s Quick Clean Up a call and we will be happy to see if we can help you improve your waste diversion rate.
