The Village provides single-family and multi-family structures (three units or less) the opportunity to recycle under the Village's recycling program. In this program, residents are provided with one 32-gallon container for free, and may use unlimited additional containers, and can discard the materials listed below into these containers. Additional recycling containers may be purchased from LRS for a one-time fee. Containers are to be placed at the "Top-of-the-Drive" location, which is a point on or immediately adjacent to the driveway near the front building line of your residence. Residents with alley service are provided one 65 gallon refuse cart and one 65 gallon recycling carts. For alley service residents seeking an additional recycling cart, a monthly fee will apply.
Village Ordinance requires that all multi-family buildings not served under the Village's program institute a recycling program. If your multi-family complex does not currently provide a recycling program, please contact the Public Works Department for assistance in implementing such a program.
