New Lenox Township's 24th Annual Clean-Up Day—May 4

The 24th Annual New Lenox Township Clean-Up Day is May 4. The service is offered for both residents within the village and unincorporated areas.

New Lenox Township officials are proud to provide this service. It's part of their commitment to the environment. There is no additional cost for the service. 

There will be a curbside pick up of most large household items such as furniture, carpet, bedding, appliances, and small amounts of building material placed in containers. Just set your items on the curb as you would on your normal trash pick up day.  

Collection is from 6 a.m. till noon. In order to ensure pick up, place your items at the curb before 6 a.m. For additional information, please call the New Lenox Township Offices at 815-485-6431 or visit the website.
