How to Recycle Plastics in Peoria Heights, Illinois
- 1). Sign up for free curb-side recycling pick-up by calling Eagle Enterprises toll-free at 888-932-2936. All homeowners in the city are eligible for free service.
- 2). Determine how much recycling you get rid of every two weeks. Decide which size of a recycling tote would suit you best, a 48, 64, or a 96 gallon unit. These are available for free from Eagle Enterprises.
