Lombard to resume yard waste pickup in April

The Village of Lombard yard waste program resumes the first full week of April. Cans and bags filled with yard waste (grass clippings, leaves, small twigs or branches, and plant materials) must have yard waste (green) stickers on them.

Bundles of brush must be tied, not exceeding six feet in length or 18 inches in diameter, and not exceeding 50 pounds each. Also, no individual branch or limb can exceed six inches in diameter. Properly bundled brush does not require a sticker. Brush is defined as limbs or branches from trees, shrubs or bushes.

Brush that is placed at the curbside and securely tied, and yard waste that is properly stickered, will be collected on your scheduled garbage collection day.

Locations that sell Lombard yard waste stickers include: Village Hall, Jewel stores (Lombard and Villa Park), Schroeder's Ace Hardware, West Suburban Bank locations in Lombard, S & R Liquors and Ultra Foods. They are $1.80 each.
