We believe in the concept of using less, reusing more, and converting the materials we reclaim into new resources or energy. Our recycling program is one example of how that concept is becoming a reality.
All residents now have a 95-gallon cart for recycling supplied by the Village..
Recycling must be placed for collection no later than 6:30 am on the day of service.
All recyclable materials will be collected on the same day of service as garbage and landscape waste material.
