Waste Management will be collecting trees and other organic holiday decorations the first two collections in January: 

• Wednesday, January 2 & Thursday, January 3 (one day holiday delay this week) 
• Tuesday, January 8 & Wednesday, January 9

Please remove all bags and decorations including tinsel, lights, ornaments and tree stands. Trees will be recycled for compost by Waste Mangement.

The Village is partnering with ComEd for a holiday light exchange on Thursday, January 10 at Village Hall (850 Waukegan Road). Residents can exchange up to ten strands of working incandescent lights for up to ten strands of LED lights.

Keep an eye out for more information about this event on the Village's website and Facebook page. 

Due to the observance of  New Year's Day, Waste Management refuse collection (garbage and recycling) will be delayed by one day the week of December 31. Tuesday collection will take place on Wednesday and Wednesday collection will take place on Thursday.

As a reminder, keep Deerfield clean and be considerate to neighbors by not leaving large refuse items or garbage and recycling carts at the curb at unsanctioned times.

According the Village’s Municipal Code, on non-collection days, all containers for garbage and recycling shall be stored out of plain sight from the street. On collection days, all containers shall be securely closed and placed for collection at the curbside not earlier than sundown of the day preceding your scheduled collection day. This also applies to miscellaneous waste, which can be scheduled for pickup by contacting Waste Management at 800.796.9696.
