Dead Animal Removal in Wisconsin, Case by Case
Wisconsin answers this for roads and for deer, and for very little else. Each page below starts where the state leaves off: who is actually responsible for that case, and what an independent operator would have to know before putting a number on it. On a public road that is an agency, picked by road class. Past the property line the owner arranges it: no state instrument puts that duty on an agency, and not one of the nine cities researched here publishes a crew that will cross onto private ground.
Dead Animal RemovalFor the call that starts with a smell and no animal in sight. Public ground splits three ways by road class here; past the property line no state instrument puts the removal on anybody but the owner.
By animal
Dead Deer Removal
Deer get a written state program, and it stops at the state highway right-of-way. Keeping one means registering it with the DNR first; moving a whole carcass beyond that county or an adjacent one is something the DNR recommends against rather than prohibits.

Chimneys, soffits, under a deck, or out on the terrace strip. A rabies-vector species, so gloves and a bag are part of it.

Dead Skunk Removal
Usually under a porch, a shed or a deck, and most often in spring when the animals are moving. Death does not settle the scent question, and rabies is the other one.

Plenty of these calls start without a sighting. If you can point to a spot or a smell but cannot say what is making it, the pages below are written for that.
Dead Animal in Yard Removal
Madison and Eau Claire put it in writing that their crews will not come onto your property; the rest of the researched cities simply never publish one. Whether a bagged animal may go in your cart is a local rule, and it changes city to city.

Two different problems. A cavity that opens onto an attic or crawl space can often be reached without cutting; a mouse sealed behind finished plaster is not a job anyone here will open a wall for, and the page explains what to expect instead.

Why no figure appears here, what the operator is actually pricing, and which cases belong to a road agency instead.
