Rock Island, Illinois
Dumpster rental in Rock Island, Illinois
Rock Island sits across the Mississippi in Illinois, with its own city rules. Each household gets one special pickup a year, which makes a container the practical choice for anything bigger.

The yearly special pickup
Booked by appointment through Public Works at (309) 732-2200. Small things bagged or boxed under 50 pounds, lumber and carpet tied in bundles no longer than 4½ feet, everything out by 7 a.m. and not more than two days early.
Not for appliances, used tires or household hazardous materials (city rules).
The rest of the year
Extra pickups carry a service charge. Yard waste can go to the city's drop-off center at Millennium Waste in Milan on Saturday mornings, covered loads only.
For a remodel, a cleanout or a move, a roll-off avoids rationing the year's pickup.
The city sends bricks, concrete block, masonry and railroad ties to Millennium Waste rather than collecting them. If you're taking out an old chimney or a block wall, a small heavy-debris container is the alternative; see concrete, dirt and brick.
Rock Island County households can book appliance and tire pickup through Weikert Recycling at (877) 934-5378: up to four appliances and ten tires a year, rims off (county program). That keeps them out of your container and its surcharges.
- Keep the container on private property, or call Public Works about the street first.
- Building work that needs a permit goes through the city's online permit portal.
- Paint and chemicals cross the river: the Carey Ave facility in Davenport takes Rock Island County households.
