I’ve been a loyal customer for some years and was disappointed today when I asked for a courtesy pickup because of an accident that occurred with my garbage and was told no. They say in the other reviews that they care about there customers, well it doesn’t show when a simple mistake can’t be forgiven by them. :( Money for there company seems to matter more.

Professional and friendly crew who respect the neighborhood in which they serve. I appreciate how cautious they are driving around my highly pedestrian neighborhood.

I do not agree with the price raises with gas price as a reason. Gas price is back down and you are very picky in what you accept. I had 1 bag of garbage and 1 cinder block in my can you would not take the cinder block. People put all kinds of things in the over filled cans but you won't take 1 cinder block. I barley have any garbage ever. In a year I think I have had 2 price increases. You know it will force people to look elsewhere. I think the business knows we have no other real option so actually you could raise the prices every month there is no contract because you would have to stick to a contract price, that's why there is no contract. I guess I'll have to smash all my cinder blocks for you, put in bags, put in the can but then i'm sure it will be too heavy,.....uhhhh

I had to empty my parents home of 40 years but they had been collecting stuff for 60 years - it was overwhelming to say the least but the kind professional prompt care I received was priceless. Every single interaction I had was kind and personal and responsive. I used 3 dumpsters to get the job done and can’t thank Illini recycling enough for their service and care!

Where can I recycle paint and stain in Champaign County?

Suzanne Zercher | Nov 2, 2019
Cindi Long | Nov 2, 2019

If it's acrylic or oil based I believe your only option is Safety Klean for disposal. Regular water based paints can be disposed of with your regular household garbage by contacting your garbage hauler. I'm not aware of options for recycling them. Depending on quantity and condition the habitat for humanity restore could be an option for reuse but you would have to check with them.
