Where We Deliver
Peoria, the Heights and both sides of the river
On a private driveway or lot, no Public Works permit; the City says so on its own page. In a City street or alley, Peoria requires a Dumpster or Storage Container permit from the Public Works Permits Division (3505 N Dries Lane, 309-494-8800), and under City Code Sec. 26-29(d)(2) the hauler placing the container applies for it: $20 for each 30 days, about 48 hours to process, 50 feet clear of an intersection or alley, 10 feet clear of a hydrant, barricades with flashing lights, reflective strips, boards under the container, and a meter bag from Heartland Parking for a metered space. Haulers hold a City licence ($25 a year, $10,000 bond); the general penalty is $75 to $500 per day and a second offence of working without a permit adds $1,000. City Code Sec. 13-37(d) also limits a dumpster on a residential property to two weeks unless Community Development (309-494-8600) extends it in writing. Our permit guide walks through the whole process.
Outside the city the rules change at every boundary, which is why each town page above states its own. In short: East Peoria licenses the roll-off itself at $25 for 30 days; Morton allows one container per property, never on the street, for 30 days on a move; Washington keeps roll-offs out of front yards and off the street without the City Administrator’s permission; Pekin wants Public Works authorisation and a location map before a container obstructs a public way; West Peoria, Bartonville and Dunlap publish no container rule; and Peoria Heights and Creve Coeur keep their codes in a form we cannot quote, so we ask the village first. Where a place publishes nothing, we say so and keep the container on private property.
