Illini Recycling is the BEST! Their people are so nice if you need to talk to them on the phone, the pick up is always on time, quiet, and clean, and their trash and recycling bins are great. Everybody in our neighborhood recommended them most highly and we couldn’t be more happy with the service we received. Plus, they have a great drop off near marketplace for extra recycling items.

Otherwise, it's a simple call in and added fee to get larger items toted away. ... read full review
