Beginning in January 2012, it is illegal to dispose of closed electronic devices with regular household waste. In order to alleviate the burden this law imposes on residents, the Village will hold periodic residential electronics collections.
These events will be held once per quarter from 8 am - noon in the municipal parking lot at the corner of Duane Street and Lorraine Road. In 2012 events will be held on the following Saturdays: January 28, April 28, July 28 and October 27. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the Environmental Commission Staff Liaison at 630-469-5000.
