about the city's solid waste department
|
The City picks up household garbage weekly and hauls to the local landfill. Residents pay for this service with their monthly solid waste fee. To insure the citizens are receiving the best value, the City created a Solid Waste Enterprise Fund that holds the monies collected and limits their use to Solid Waste operations. Please see below for common issues and resolutions.
For any billing questions please contact the Danville Sanitary District 217-442-3193 To schedule an extra collection or for solid/yard waste questions please call: 217-431-2288

Common toter issues
- My toter was stolen: Call 217-431-2250 and report the theft. The City does not replace lost or stolen toters. In order to purchase a replacement toter call Public Works at 217-431-2288 or the City Finance department at 217-431-2200.
- Toters can be placed out after 4pm the night before pick up and must be removed by midnight on collection day.
- If your trash was missed make sure the following circumstances don't apply to you
- If there was a City holiday this week, your pick up will be delayed by one day. See the City holidays on the calendar or the holiday trash schedule print out below.
- If your garbage was not in a toter in trash bags with the lid closed, then a Cleanup collection probably should have been scheduled, see above
- We start early, if you did not get your toter out by 7:00 am we may have missed you. If you can wait one week, please do so.
- If we missed your toter, we are sorry. Call 217-431-2288 or email the Solid Waste Department with your address information so we can correct the mistake.
