It is the responsibility of the owner or occupant of a residence to have their household garbage at the curbside on pick-up day. The pick-up day for the west side of the Village is Tuesday. Once the garbage collectors have passed a certain street, they will not return. If you are out of town on your pick-up day, arrange for a friend or neighbor to put out your garbage and pick up your cans when emptied.
Garbage cans placed throughout the Village park system are for park use only.
Remember that this service is for household garbage only. The garbage collector will not pick up leaves, grass clipings, construction materials, appliances, etc. Some items can be disposed of by contracting a private refuse collector. If a private refuse collector is needed, the Village will not pay for these services. The nearest landfill is Mallard Ridge located on Highway 11, west of Delavan.
