Dumpster Rental in Grayslake, IL

Growing Grayslake

It was not so long ago that Grayslake was considered more of an urban small town. But as the suburban areas of Chicago have expanded, Grayslake has been an expanding location now with over twenty thousand inhabitants. If you have a family you will likely be very happy in this location, which green space for kids to run and play and plenty of amenities, nightlife, security, and high-ranking schools. If you are expanding your home or business, you are also in the right place where the growth could likely pay off over time. Whether you are cleaning or improving your home, landscaping, renovation a home or business, or building a new home or facility, you will need a reliable open-top-bin company that will minimize your costs. Whatever your project, consider a 10, 15, 20, 30, or 40-cubic yard open-top-bin to make you fast and effective. The smallest bin begins at three hundred dollars and can hold two tons of debris, which the 40-cubic yard bin can hold an incredible five tons of debris.

Landscaping

If you are engaged in normal landscaping, such as cutting your lawn, trimming, or raking leaves, you are likely sufficiently serviced by the Village of Grayslake. An additional service that the Village offers is its Leaf Vacuuming Program in the fall. For about six weeks from October 21 to November 30, the Village has machines that vacuum up your leaves. Just rake your leaves to the curb. Strategically place your leaves withing three feet of the curb and five feet from the edge of the street. In some cases, the Village may pick up branches, but only those that result from high winds. The rest of your branches must be cut into small piles.

As a result, some landscaping projects just create so much yard wast that it may be more effective to rent a 10, 15, or 20-cubic yard open-top-bin in which you can simply throw all of your waste away and save a lot of time and energy. If you limit your wast to just landscaping, the debris can be disposed of environmentally and may save you money. Additionally, Easy Dumpster Rental open-top-bins are long and narrow to fit easily in your driveway and also hold long items (like branches). These containers can also take from two to five tons of weight and can handle things like dirt and gravel that get very heavy.

Special Waste

Pharmaceuticals: Certain things cannot go into an open-top-container without special arrangements. One such thing is pharmaceuticals. If you are renovating a bathroom or cleaning your home, be careful not to throw these items into your bin or your trash can. Old pharmaceuticals are considered hazardous waste and can contaminate the water supply. But do not worry as Easy Dumpster Rental will guide you through the process. Police stations often have facilities to accept hazardous waste. The closest location in Grayslake that will accept pharmaceutical is the Fox Lake Police Department located at 301 S IL Route 59, Fox Lake, IL 60020-1896.

The best location to go with household chemical waste is the SWALCO Hazardous Waste Facility, where they will be processed responsibly. The SWALCO HWC facility can be found at 1311 N.
