Free Unlimited Yard Waste Collection Taking Place the Weeks of April 20 and April 27

For the weeks beginning Monday, April 20 and April 27, LRS will be conducting free and unlimited containerized landscape waste collection throughout the Village for those who do not pay a homeowners association (HOA) for waste collection  services. Landscape waste must be placed at the curb or the edge of the road by  6am on your regular pick-up day and must be containerized in one of the  following ways:

  • Kraft-type paper bag not to exceed 45 lbs.
  • Rigid cans not to exceed 32-gallons.
  • Bundles of brush not to exceed 2 feet in diameter by 4 feet long and weighing no more than 60 pounds with no individual branch being greater than 3 inches in diameter. Must be bundled and tied with twine or string in distinct piles.

Failure to have materials out by 6am on your pick-up day will result in the waste not being collected. As a result, residents will have to wait until the next week or when yard waste collection is not free.
