For the seventh consecutive year, Habitat for Humanity of Wausau is once again collecting unwanted holiday lights for recycling. Lights are accepted regardless of working condition. Drop off boxes are located at the following locations and will be in place until the end of January:
• Mosinee City Hall
• Wausau City Hall
• Pick ‘n Save – all 3 Wausau area locations
• Piggly Wiggly Mosinee
• People’s State Bank – all Wausau locations
• Intercity State Bank – Weston & Wausau
• Nigbur’s Fine Furniture
Through this program, since 2014, Habitat for Humanity of Wausau has kept more than ten tons of holiday lights from landfills. Habitat receives a modest sum each year for the value of the recyclable material in the lights.
