Effective May 1, 2011, the cost of a general refuse sticker and yard waste sticker for La Grange residents will increase by 25¢, from $3.95 to $4.20. This is a scheduled price increase pursuant to a five-year contract between the Village of La Grange and Allied Waste approved in 2007.
As an alternative to purchasing stickers, residents can subscribe to a toter service for refuse collection. Toters are wheeled carts with a 96-gallon capacity. Each cart holds the equivalent of 3 cans of garbage. Toters are completely enclosed with an attached lid to prevent odor problems and keep unwanted pests out of your trash. The cart service is a clean and convenient way to store and dispose of garbage. Material outside the toter still requires refuse stickers. The cost of the toter service will remain the same at $26.25 per month. Please contact Allied Waste directly at 708-345-7050.
