 Shiloh Cut-Off (Main Street) Reconstruction Project:

The contractor has notified this department that, weather permitting, he intends to place the asphalt binder on the section between I-64 and the North entrance to the Midwest Twisters facility on Wednesday, May 8th. 

Again, weather permitting, beginning on Thursday, May 9th the section of roadway previously mentioned will be reopened to local traffic while the section of roadway between the North entrance to the Midwest Twisters facility to the center of the Market Basket entrance will be closed to all traffic so that the reconstruction process can begin on it.

The only effect that this will have on the current traffic patterns is that access to the Midwest Twisters facility will be from the South only.

Thank you.

Shiloh Public Works recycled 96 tires on April 24, 2013.   This was an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency sponsored collection.

  

 

UPDATE 6/4/2013 There are still a few raised beds left, call for more information.

“REPUBLIC SERVICES CUSTOMERS - LARGE ITEM CLEAN UP”  

AUGUST 26TH - AUGUST 30TH

 

Republic Services and the Village of Shiloh are sponsoring  a “large item clean up”.  This is an opportunity for residents to dispose of large items, at the curb, at no charge!  The large items will be picked up on your normal trash day during the weeks of:  August 26th thru 30th.   You do not need to call Republic Services to have items picked up, simply have them set out at the curb by 7:00 a.m. along with your trash to ensure pickup.   Please refer to the list below outlining what we can and cannot pick up:

 

Large items we will pickup include:

 

  • furniture 
  • mattress sets 
  • large carpets (cut into manageable bundles no longer than 4ft) 
  • bulky items that don’t fit in your garbage cans  
  • glass portions of doors, windows, etc. NOTE: These should be broken and placed into a small box marked “glass”.  Please also remove nails/staples or anything sharp that is exposed to prevent injury to you and the collector. 
  • Appliances can be set out with large items and will be picked up by our 3rd party vendor, Appliance Recyclers, at no charge.

 

 

Items that we cannot pickup include:

  • concrete
  • shingles
  • construction debris
  • loose trash
  • yard waste
  • trash in cardboard boxes
  • items identified as hazardous waste (such as tires, old/lead based paint, railroad ties)
  • ELECTRONIC WASTE – new this year - due to IL state law, electronics cannot be disposed of in a landfill and therefore cannot be placed at the curb for pickup.  This includes televisions, computer monitors/accessories, DVD/VCR players, as well as several other items.  For a complete list of banned items, and where to properly dispose of these items, contact Republic Services at 618-656-6883.
