Other notes
- This is a seasonal, short-window electronics service, not an all-day mixed-recycling or household-trash dump. Check the village linked acceptable-electronics list or call before bringing a specific device.
- The village does not accept batteries for recycling collection or household chemical waste at this site. Chemical waste goes to a separate Illinois EPA facility or an optional paid pickup program. Do not apply the separate $81 pickup-service price to this free electronics drop-off.
- The village now directs large white packaging foam to other locations, not this electronics intake. Ordinary curbside recycling and Hefty ReNew orange bags are separate collection programs.
- Alternative electronics at the Glenview SWANCC transfer station have a separate Saturday schedule and address. Do not confuse that site's hours with Thursday intake on Willow Road.
- Season runs through November; a specific last 2026 collection day or holiday-week exception is not published on the retrieved page. Call before a late-November visit.
