Due to a continual increase in illegal dumping and contamination, which results in increased costs, the Lake County Solid Waste Management District has decided to end its Recycling Center Drop Off Program. Beginning in June, the remaining 7 sites throughout Lake County will be gradually phased out with all sites being permanently closed by September 5, 2019. Residents without curbside recycling are encouraged to contact their garbage hauler for curbside recycling options.
