Lake in the Hills grew faster than almost anywhere else in the region during the 1990s and 2000s. That means thousands of homes of the same age hitting the same replacement cycle together.

Lake in the Hills went from a small village to one of McHenry County's larger communities in about two decades, built out mostly through the 1990s and 2000s. Those subdivisions are now 20 to 30 years old, which is precisely when original decks, fences, sheds, playsets, and above-ground pools reach the end of their lives.

Lake in the Hills curbside rules

What Flood Brotherswill take, and what it won’t

The village program

The Village of Lake in the Hills contracts with Flood Brothers for all residential collection, with refuse, recycling, and landscape waste picked up once a week on a designated day. Bulk and oversized items beyond standard cart service are arranged with Flood Brothers directly.

Where that leaves you

Weekly cart collection is built for a steady household trickle, not for a subdivision hitting its replacement cycle all at once. When the original decks, pools, fences, and playsets across a 1990s neighborhood wear out within a few years of each other, that debris arrives as a load, not a weekly item.

Rules current as of July 2026. Municipal contracts change, so confirm details with the Lake in the Hills 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.
