Another Billing Error With Darien's Ex-Trash Hauler

DARIEN, IL – Darien's former garbage hauler mistakenly sent invoices to a "limited number" of residents recently, the city said Thursday.

The bills were for April 1 to June 30, the city said. However, Houston-based Waste Management's contract ended March 31.

Those who received Waste Management bills are urged to call Waste Management at 800-778-7652.

"You are not responsible to pay this bill," the city said.

In March, Darien officials said Waste Management sent out bills to residents for the next quarter starting April 1. The city said the company had an error in its billing system.

Last fall, the city chose Morton Grove-based LRS over Waste Management. The LRS contract began April 1.
