Tinley Park, IL Trash & Recycling: Bulk Item Disposal (2026)

11 as grass or shrubbery cuttings, leaves, tree limbs, and other material from caring for lawns, shrubbery, vines, and trees. 15(B)(2)(a); commercial and non-single-family properties may use any village-approved alternative or their own licensed landscape service as an incidental part of lawn care work. Landscape waste may not be mixed with regular refuse intended for landfill disposal, and any scavenger who violates the section risks license suspension or revocation in addition to a fine. 07(A) addresses oversized household refuse: material too large or heavy for a standard 20-to-35-gallon container, such as construction materials, may be placed alongside the container rather than crammed inside it, as long as it is set out so it cannot be scattered.

Neither section creates a special large-item or furniture pickup program beyond what fits under those two rules, so a household with a bulky item outside those categories, such as an appliance, needs to arrange collection directly with its scavenger service rather than relying on the standard weekly landscape or refuse pickup. 15(C).
