Building a statewide recycling program for boat wrap is a big undertaking, and it’s important to do it right. The Wrap Recycle Right (WRR) Program will grow in phases to ensure operational stability and long-term success.
Building a statewide recycling program isn’t just about adding locations—it’s about creating a system that works. By growing in phases, WRR can carefully plan each step to ensure sites are fully prepared and the network operates smoothly.
This phased approach delivers a program that is reliable, with collection sites ready and well-equipped for boat owners; efficient, with materials transported to the nearest plastic film recycling plant; and accessible, with site locations chosen to serve areas with high boating activity and community demand.
WRR is committed to building a strong, accountable, and transparent recycling system for Minnesota. Your patience and support help make Wrap Recycle Right a long-term success for Minnesota’s lakes, rivers, and communities. These goals support Minnesota’s long-term environmental and waste-reduction priorities.
Counties are gradually joining the WRR recycling program, bringing more communities into the network each year. If your area isn’t yet on board, here’s what you can do to get involved:
Opt to receive notifications about upcoming rollout phases, so you’ll know when your community is next.
Check back regularly for updated maps and county lists as new locations are added.
Access our educational materials to support boat owners in preparing for recycling in your community.
While your area is being added, you can recycle at nearby locations, and we welcome any suggestions for new sites.
