Will the city take it?
Glenview contracts Groot Industries for weekly curbside garbage and recycling, with the village's own fee table covering the service and a single bulky item removed at no charge when it is scheduled in advance. White goods are priced per item, landscaping waste is collected from April through November only, and electronics get one free curbside pickup a year for up to six items. Household hazardous waste cannot go at the curb and moves through the free Illinois EPA collections that the regional agency lists, since the fee-based at-home pickup the agency offers does not include Glenview.
