Yard Waste Pick Up & Disposal Service

Residential Yard Waste Season is April 1 – November 30

By Illinois state law, yard waste cannot be disposed of with regular garbage.

  • Yard waste can be placed in brown paper yard waste bags or in yard waste carts.

  • Yard waste cannot be placed inside plastic garbage bags.

  • Yard waste bags and containers cannot exceed 50 pounds each and should be able to be reasonably lifted by one person.

  • Bundled and tied branches should be cut to 3-4 foot lengths.

  • Yard waste is picked up on regularly scheduled garbage days.

  • Each village has selected its own method for yard waste disposal (carts, cans, yard waste bags.)  Please enter your village below to find out how to place yard waste out for collection in your neighborhood.

Some village waste programs require yard waste stickers to be purchased and attached to each bag of yard waste. Some villages also require these stickers to be attached to any bundles of branches placed out for collection.

Yard waste stickers can be purchased at our offices in Homewood, Park Forest and Tinley Park or at vendor locations listed below.
