The Blue Carts will be delivered in late June and pickup will begin the week of July 6.
Residents should put out their blue carts with their curbside pickup during their assigned week. See Schedule
For years, the city had a blue bag program, but officials hope the carts will lead to a higher participation. Residents whose neighborhoods are not yet part of the program can visit one of 30 drop off centers.
The city will hold three community meetings on the Blue Cart program to answer questions:
Logan Square Library
3030 W. Fullerton Ave.
Holstein Park
2200 N. Oakley Ave.
Lincoln Park High School
2001 N. Orchard St.
