As 2024 turns to 2025 in the next few days, the city of Elgin prepares to change waste haulers, moving on from a 20+ year contract with Waste Management (WM) to a new contract with Lakeshore Recycling Services (LRS).

This is the final episode of The Elgin Watchman's Season Three special series on Waste. We've been calling this series WASTE WARS.

In this episode, Tia and Kendra talk about the tour that LRS generously took them on of the company's MRF (aka Materials Recovery Facility, which is kind of like a recycling facility).

If you are interested in learning more about Elgin's new waste hauling company, you will want to tune into this episode. It is an awesome behind the scenes look at a company who cares about the environment and someone with whom Elgin residents are about to enter into a multi-year relationship.

This is a must listen to episode for anyone who cares about waste and recycling.
