Single-Stream Recycling

Lakeshore Recycling Systems opened Chicago’s single-stream recycling center in 2016, which increases recycling and waste diversion. With this commitment, we vow to be an eco-friendly waste partner promise to make Skokie a greener place to live and work in the process.

Our single-stream recycling center sorts and separates recyclables. The facility handles more than 110,000 tons of high-grade residential and commercial single-stream recyclables at a time. Our 40,000 square foot recycling center recycles, sorts and separates over 20 tons of waste an hour.

Skokie and the Environment

As we continue to expand and improve our services, we are hopeful and confident that our partnership with the Village of Skokie will continue to grow as well. Located directly north of the border of Chicago, Skokie is one the most attractive places to live and work in Chicagoland. While it is very close to Chicago, Skokie also manages to maintain a small-town look-and-feel. The Skokie Park District maintains over 240 acres of land in ten different locations. At Lakeshore Recycling Systems, we want to keep those parks and the entire town of Skokie beautiful and green. With the help of the 64,000 residents and businesses that call Skokie home, we are confident that we can make a difference for the environment today and in the future.
