Negaunee Township

Negaunee Township Located in Marquette County in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Negaunee Township was established on February 14, 1859. Burt on September 19, 1844.

The Township was originally made up of the territory which had been Teal Lake Township, with various sections of the western part subsequently being detached in the formation of Ishpeming and Tilden Townships

The first settlements in the Township were made under the sponsorship of the Jackson Iron Company, as iron ore was discovered in the area by William A. Today Negaunee Township is home to bot

h residents and commercial businesses. The scenic setting is traversed by the Iron Ore Heritage Trail, a 48-mile, multi-use, year round trail that connects communities and people to the region’s historic sites and human stories. In addition, trails and water access throughout the Township offer year round recreation possibilities.

Recycling personal information (documents, bank statements, medical records) is a bad idea because it places sensitive data into unsecured streams accessible to thieves. Once in the recycling bin, you lose control of the information, enabling risks such as identity theft, dumpster diving, and privacy breaches

Fireworks should never be placed in recycling because they are a major fire hazard and contain hazardous, non-recyclable materials. Used fireworks can smolder for hours, risking fires in trucks or facilities. They contain unexploded, toxic chemicals and heavy metals—such as barium and strontium—that contaminate recycling batches.

How to properly dispose of Fireworks: Soak all fireworks (including "duds") in a bucket of water for at least 15 minutes, but preferably overnight, to ensure they are completely extinguished. Once fully soaked, place them in a plastic bag and dispose of them in your normal household trash.

Putting hazardous waste in your recycling bin is dangerous because it can cause fires or explosions in trucks, release toxic chemicals into the environment, and harm sanitation workers. These items (batteries, paints, chemicals) require special, separate disposal to prevent contaminating recycling streams, damaging equipment, and leaching toxins into soil and water.
Please call to make an appointment (906) 249-4125 to drop off your hazardous waste. For Marquette County Residents, this is free and quite easy.
