Torvik Hauling is based in Hawthorn Woods. When you call from here, you are not calling a dispatch center that routes a truck from somewhere else. You are calling the owner, who lives in town.
Hawthorn Woods sits on larger lots than most of Lake County, and a lot of that land came with a shed, a barn, a playset, or a pole building that has outlived its use. Big lots also mean brush, storm debris, and yard waste in volumes no curbside cart was built for.
Hawthorn Woods curbside rules
What Waste Managementwill take, and what it won’t
The village program
Waste Management takes two free bulky items a week, plus white goods like water heaters, washers, dryers, stoves, and dishwashers on top of that limit. You have to call at least 24 hours before your regular pickup day to arrange it.
Waste Management: (800) 964-8988
Where that leaves you
Two items a week works fine for a slow cleanout. It does not work when you are emptying a garage before a move, clearing a pole barn, or taking down a shed. There is also no version of that program that includes demolition debris.
Rules current as of July 2026. Municipal contracts change, so confirm details with the Hawthorn Woods waste page before you rely on them. We keep the rules for every village we serve in one place.

What neighbors say
Reviews from around Lake County
“They helped me move two sofas and were incredibly professional, timely, and efficient from start to finish. I really appreciated how careful and considerate they were with the space. Matt was great to work with, very responsive and accommodating. I needed the sofas removed within 24 hours, and he made it happen seamlessly.”
“Super fast and professional. They took a rather challenging job that I have had others deny in the past. They were well equipped with tools to demo and remove an existing steel furnace drum that was original to a hundred year old house. Glad to finally have my space back in my basement. Torvik will be my go-to contractor in my personal and professional projects.”
“Prompt, speedy, affordable and a pleasure to work with. Showed up and removed our hot tub and made sure the area was all cleaned up when he was done.”
