We’re a local family-owned garbage company serving the residents and businesses of Chicagoland and NW Indiana.

Since 1956, Homewood Disposal has continued building its business on the values of founder Wendell (Wendy) E. Yonker. His loyalty and integrity inspire our ongoing commitment to provide “the kind of service others only promise.”

Homewood Disposal provides residential, commercial, and industrial waste services to hundreds of thousands of our neighbors in over 80 local communities.

Over the years other companies have joined us, including Nuway Disposal, Star Disposal, Kankakee Disposal, Tinley Park Disposal, Heartland Disposal, and Star Disposal of Indiana. No matter which of our names you recognize, we operate under the same loyalty, integrity, and the same trusted teal color.
