Two bulk items and two cubic yards

Accepted with preparation

Up to two bulk items under 50 pounds each and up to two cubic yards of extra material are included, and anything beyond that is billed by the yard or quoted as a special pickup.

City cost & eligibility
From $12.39 for the published charge per yard for non containerized material pickup, which carries a two yard minimum. The included allowance covers two cubic yards of additional waste that will not fit the cart and up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards. Beyond that, LRS provides service as needed on an agreed per yard basis billed separately, and the village rate table prices non containerized material pickup at 12.39 per yard with a two yard minimum.
When & how
Set the material out on the collection day by 7 a.m., and call LRS at 844-633-3577 when the load is larger than the included allowance so the per yard or special pickup arrangement can be made.
Get it ready
Keep each item under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards, cut carpet and padding into widths no greater than four feet and tie them into rolled bundles under 50 pounds, break window and patio door glass into a box clearly labeled broken glass with the frames disassembled, remove and empty fuel tanks from grills and gas powered equipment and put the empty tanks in the trash separately, and separate two piece toilets into two parts.

Major appliances

Accepted with preparation

A major appliance, including ovens and refrigerators, is collected on request as a separate service priced per appliance.

City cost & eligibility
$25.81 for the published rate for a separate collection of a major appliance. The village prices a separate appliance collection at 25.81 per appliance, arranged by contacting LRS at 844-633-3577. The hauler states that on request it will collect major appliances including ovens and refrigerators.
When & how
Call LRS customer service at 844-633-3577 to schedule the appliance collection, then set the unit out for the arranged day.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors, keep it out of the trash and recycling carts and out of the yard waste, and remember that a pressurized tank or flammable waste cannot be placed out at all, so a gas grill tank must be emptied and put in the trash separately.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Curb by 7 a.m., never before the night window

Carts and material go out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before pickup from April 1 through September 30 and no earlier than 4 p.m. from October 1 through March 31, and everything has to be at the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day. Carts belong in the parkway or on a driveway apron, because a cart in the street or bike lane violates the village code.

Prepare the bulky items the way the village lists

Nothing may exceed 50 pounds, carpet is cut into widths no greater than four feet and tied in rolls, window and patio glass is broken into a box labeled broken glass with the frames disassembled, grills and gas equipment are emptied of fuel with the empty tank placed in the trash separately, two piece toilets are separated, and a mattress or box spring is wrapped in plastic with a queen or king set split across two weeks.

Lakeshore Recycling Systems for the Village of Schaumburg, with the village running the electronics and hazardous waste referrals

Schedule a separate appliance collection

A household with a refrigerator, oven, washer, dryer or another major appliance to dispose of.

Cost & conditions
$25.81 for the published rate for a separate collection of a major appliance. The village prices a separate appliance collection at 25.81 per appliance and the hauler collects major appliances on request, including ovens and refrigerators, arranged through LRS at 844-633-3577.
Arrange it
Call LRS customer service at 844-633-3577 to schedule the collection and set the unit out for the arranged day.

The fee is per appliance, so a kitchen full of appliances adds up, and the appliance still cannot contain food or loose parts. Pressurized tanks and flammable waste are refused at the curb, so a gas cylinder has to be emptied and placed in the trash separately.

See the service rates

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Schaumburg pays for its basic refuse and recycling program and LRS runs it: a free garbage cart and recycling cart at every home in three sizes, weekly waste and recycling, and seasonal yard waste from April 1 through the second full week of December. Nothing needs a sticker, material goes out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before from April through September and 4 p.m. from October through March, and everything is at the curb by 7 a.m. Cleaning out means working inside the included allowance: two cubic yards of extra material and up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards, with mattresses wrapped in plastic and a queen or king set split over two weeks, carpet rolled no wider than four feet, broken glass boxed and labeled, grills emptied of fuel, and toilets separated. Anything bigger is arranged and billed through LRS at 844-633-3577, which also does a separate major appliance collection at 25.81 per appliance. Electronics are illegal in the Illinois trash and get tagged at the curb, so televisions, monitors, computers and microwaves go to a listed local recycler such as Protech Environmental in Elk Grove, where a television or monitor of any size is 20.00 and a microwave is 20.00, while household batteries, cell phones and CFL bulbs go to the village drop boxes at Temporary Village Hall, Engineering and Public Works or the Al Larson Cultural Center. Hazardous products never go in the refuse: paint, gasoline, pesticides, antifreeze and pressurized tanks go to the Naperville household hazardous waste facility at 156 Fort Hill Drive, open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Schaumburg.

How much does appliance removal cost in Schaumburg?

A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.

Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Schaumburg?

Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.

Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?

Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.

Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?

Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.

Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?

Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.

How much bulk waste is included?

Two cubic yards of additional waste that will not fit the cart plus up to two bulk items, as long as each item is under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards and the load is safe for the driver to handle. Anything beyond that is arranged with LRS at 844-633-3577 and billed separately by the yard.Official guidance

How do I prepare bulky material for Schaumburg?

Keep every item under 50 pounds, roll carpet and padding no wider than four feet, box broken window glass and label the box, disassemble frames and toilets, and empty and remove fuel tanks from grills and gas equipment before setting the tank out in the trash. Large, awkward or heavy items beyond the included allowance need a special pickup arranged with LRS.Official guidance

What does an appliance pickup cost?

25.81 per appliance for a separate collection, arranged with LRS at 844-633-3577. The hauler will collect major appliances on request, including ovens and refrigerators, and the village lists that separate collection as a resident paid service.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Schaumburg?

Lakeshore Recycling Systems, known as LRS, has been the village's exclusive residential provider for curbside waste, recycling and yard waste since May 1, 2022. The village pays for the basic program and sets service up automatically, while special services are arranged and paid for by the resident through LRS at 844-633-3577.Official guidance

How much bulk waste is included in Schaumburg?

Two cubic yards of extra material plus up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards, as long as the load is within Illinois landfill rules and safe for the driver to handle. Anything beyond that is scheduled with LRS at 844-633-3577 and billed per yard or as a special pickup.Official guidance

What do the paid services cost?

The village pays the basic program, and the published extras are 3.10 a month for an additional cart plus a 25.00 movement fee per cart on exchanges, 15.49 a month for back door service which can be free with two qualifying conditions, 37.20 a year for an organic waste cart, 25.81 per appliance for a separate appliance collection, and 12.39 per yard with a two yard minimum for non containerized material pickup.Official guidance

Where do electronics go?

To one of the local recyclers the village lists, because electronics are illegal in the regular trash and the contractor tags anything left at the curb. Protech Environmental in Elk Grove takes televisions and monitors of any size for 20.00 and microwaves for 20.00, and the village also lists AVA Recycling, Best Buy on Golf Road, the Elk Grove Township Recycling Center and EZ Electronics Recycling. Batteries, cell phones and CFL bulbs have their own village drop boxes.Official guidance

How does yard waste collection work?

Yard waste runs from April 1 through the second full week in December on the same day as the rest of the collection, using the resident's own can of 35 gallons or less marked YW or brown kraft bags at no charge, with a 50 pound limit and bundles no longer than four feet and two feet in diameter. Food waste may be mixed in, a cart can be rented for a fee, and multi family dwellings are excluded from yard waste service.Official guidance
