Heights Spring Cleanup

  • Village of Peoria Heights 4901 N. Prospect Rd. Peoria Heights United States (map)

The Village of Peoria Heights will hold a two-day Community Cleanup on Friday and Saturday, April 29-30, at its Public Works Garage, 3838 N. Boulevard Ave. in the Heights.

Dumpsters will be available on site from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on each of those days, said Village Administrator Dustin Sutton, who hopes to make it an annual event to coincide with the police department’s traditional spring code enforcement efforts.

The Village is working closely with its waste hauler, G&O Disposal, to coordinate the cleanup, which is a preemptive move aimed at preventing the littering of local alleys with large items that are not eligible for curb pickup.

That said, the landfill will not be accepting everything. Not eligible for disposal are tires, appliances (dishwashers, humidifiers, laundry machines, air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, etc.), electronics (televisions, stereo equipment, computer monitors, keyboards, etc.), large batteries, hazardous waste including motor oils and wet paints, propane tanks and yard waste, among other items.

Residents are permitted to drop off one mattress and box spring.
