Solid Waste Overview
Monthly Rates On June 2, 2005, the Village Board authorized a five year extension to the residential garbage and refuse collection and disposal contract. The contract will expire on June 30, 2010. We are in the fourth year of the extended contract. There are no changes to the garbage and refuse collection program, and residents have no limitation on the number of containers placed at the curb on collection day. In addition, there are no changes in the curbside recycling, yardwaste collection, or brush pick up programs.
In November 2005, Allied Waste Services initiated a cart system for garbage and refuse for all customers under the contract. This program has been very successful for both Allied Waste Services and the Village. Please remember that if you leave your cart outside it must be screened from view of the street. This regulation is no different than in the past when residents utilized 35 gallon plastic or metal containers. Click here for more information on the refuse cart program. The rates charged for all services increased on July 1, 2008. The rates for all services will be fixed over the next two year period, and a rate schedule can be found below. The service rates in all categories have increased due to increases in fuel, labor, tipping fees, transportation and final disposal costs. Our garbage and refuse is currently hauled to the DuKane transfer station in West Chicago. From there it is loaded into large semi-transfer trailers and transported to a landfill in Livingston County in Pontiac, Illinois for final disposal. All single family homes, duplexes, triplexes and the Church Street Station, Court J, Fremont Junction, Hartford Square, Larkspur, Olde Salem, Rainbow Point Sacramento, Rainbow Point West, Savannah Subdivision, Tall Oaks and Tanglewood Homeowners Associations are required to have garbage and refuse collection and disposal by Allied Waste Services. The Village and Allied Waste Services are dedicated to providing the highest quality service at the lowest possible price. If you have comments regarding the program, Allied’s performance, or general service concerns, please call the Village at (630) 372-4210 or Allied Waste Services at (630) 469-1036.
