Posted on: March 5, 2020[ARCHIVED] Free Leaf Collection April 13-17
Village of Westmont
Date Issued: March 5, 2020
The Village of Westmont and Waste Management is offering free leaf collection during the second full week of April. Starting Monday, April 13, and running through Friday, April 17, residents can put out unlimited kraft paper bags of leaves free of charge next to their garbage on their scheduled garbage pick-up day. Only kraft paper yard waste bags can be used for this free program. This program is for leaves only - grass clippings and other yard waste must be put in separate kraft bags and have a yard waste sticker placed on each bag or container.
Westmont does not have a curbside leaf pick-up program. Leaves raked into the street will NOT be collected and may result in a fine.
If you are putting out branches for pick-up, branches must be bundled with twine and adhere to the size requirements. Requirements for brush and yard waste can be found on our website here: westmont.illinois.gov/index.aspx
Yard waste stickers can be purchased at Village Hall, 31 W. Quincy Street; Bales Ace Hardware, 20 E. Quincy Street; Mariano’s, 150 W. 63rd Street; and Jewel-Osco, Cass & Ogden and 55th & Holmes in Clarendon Hills. For more information, contact Waste Management at wm.com or 800-964-8988.
