Other notes

Bins take loose, clean, compact recycling: corrugated/smooth cardboard, container glass, paper/newspapers/magazines, steel/aluminum cans and plastics #1 to #5 and #7. No bags, #6/Styrofoam, clothing or garbage.
Bin locations: Brook south of water tower; Goodland between bank and post office; Kentland East Goss Street; Lake Village west of Lake Township Fire Station; Morocco north of Highway Garage; Mt Ayr Chicago Street; Roselawn East Kellar Street east of Ceres Solutions/Generations Center.
County spells the Kentland street Goss; district page spells it Gross. County current location wording is used here, with the discrepancy disclosed rather than silently assuming a different site.
Electronics, appliances, tires, oil, oil filters and antifreeze go to Highway Department, not the 24-hour containers. District lists that department at 3653 S 275 W and phone 219-285-2595. Confirm special-item charges and any daily quantity limits before loading.
The recycling coordinator number above is separate from the Highway Department contact. No general household-trash drop-off is established by these recycling sources.
