You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
You want to know it is handled.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Filled bags and boxes
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard and containers
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Furniture and other larger items
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

The Village publishes two different measures, a flat rate per 100 pounds and a special collection rate per cubic yard, so confirm which one applies to your load when you book.
Lombard is a collection-only program, and the Village publishes no resident drop-off site of its own. Everything moves through the weekly Waste Management collection, the sticker system for large items and yard waste, or a scheduled bulk pickup for material over 100 pounds. The Village does publish a special collection rate measured per cubic yard, which is the route to ask about for heavier or bulkier loads. Contact Lombard Public Works at (630) 620-5740 or publicworks@villageoflombard.org, or Waste Management at 800-964-8988, to confirm the right route before loading anything.
