Bolingbrook Will Shift To New Waste Management Provider In May

BOLINGBROOK, IL — The Village of Bolingbrook will be moving to a waste services management company next month, which will provide local residents with a choice in how they dispose of their garbage and recycling.

The Village announced on Wednesday that beginning May 1, Oakbrook Terrace-based Flood Brothers Disposal will handle waste management duties for local residents. Flood Brothers will replace Groot Industries and village officials said that services will be similar to the new provider.

The new waste management contact allows residents to choose if they will continue to use bags at the curb or to rent a garbage and recycling cart from Flood Brothers, for a rental fee of $2.50 per month for both garbage and recycling, village officials said Wednesday.

Cart rental will be billed annually by Flood Brothers. Residents who rent carts will receive two carts for the monthly rental rate of one. Residents will only be allowed to rent a maximum of three carts per residential unit. Flood Brothers will only collect garbage placed in bags or Flood Brothers Disposal rented carts. Residents must adhere to the Village ordinance for proper cart storage.

Flood Brothers has started to distribute the carts through Flood Brothers once residents arrange for the rental of the units. Residents are reminded not to begin using the carts until May 1. Residents interested in renting carts may visit the Flood Brothers website, can email or call (630) 919-0400.
