Electronic Waste Recycling and Disposal
LRS provides curbside E-Waste collection, recycling and proper disposal of electronics that are banned from landfills for Village of Lisle residents. Electronic waste (E-Waste) is collected once a month, on the first Wednesday of every month.
The Village still provides quarterly electronics recycling services on certain Saturdays.
Annual Clean-up Day is Saturday, October 7th, 2023
The Village has arranged for an Clean-up Day pick up program with Lakeshore Recycling Systems (LRS). On Saturday, October 7th, 2023, residents who participate in curbside collection programs (subscription cart service or the sticker program) will have the option of disposing of an unlimited amount of refuse and household debris by placing it curbside for pick up. The material must be prepared in the same manner as you would for any other collection day.
To participate, residents who do not have subscription service with LRS must affix stickers to the first five items set out for disposal. Additional items placed out with the stickered items will be picked up without charge. For those that have a subscription cart service with LRS, there are no stickers required to participate – simply set items out at the curb for collection. Residents can begin to place items at the curbside after the regular pick up that occurs on Wednesday, October 4, 2023. All items must be placed at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 7, 2023 to ensure collection, as crews will be unable to return to an area once they’ve passed through. More information can be found on the LRS website.
