90+ Years of Experience
Established in 1932 by the Crenshaw family, Lake Area Disposal & Recycling has become the oldest and largest locally owned waste disposal service in Springfield and Sangamon County. Even after more than eight decades, the company remains under the operation of the Crenshaw family, displaying their dedication to their legacy.
Having survived the challenges of the Great Depression, Lake Area Disposal & Recycling has thrived by adhering to the principles set by the Crenshaw family for five generations. Our foremost belief is that our customers are our most valuable asset. As the oldest waste hauler in Sangamon County, we distinguish ourselves through our unparalleled commitment to service. In fact, service is an integral part of our company name.
Additionally, we recognize that Lake Area Disposal & Recycling is an integral part of the Springfield and Sangamon County community. We are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, nor do we sponsor PGA golf tournaments. Instead, you will find us where you need us the most – right here in Sangamon County.
We're proud of our local heritage. Just like our neighbors here in Sangamon County, we prosper because of hard work and service to our customers. Our customers are not just clients; our customers are neighbors. All of us have a stake in the health, prosperity, and welfare of our community.
We're a family that has extended our bloodlines through our staff, and many of our employees have worked here for 20, 30 years, and more. That kind of loyalty among our employees is extended to our customers. When our employees service your disposal needs, they have a connection to the customer that the multi-national companies simply can't match.
That commitment has served us well. When the City of Springfield shifted waste disposal service from a city agency to the private sector, more than two dozen local companies picked up Springfield residential trash. Lake Area Disposal & Recycling is the last remaining hauler, more than 50 years later.
When you call our East Cornell Avenue office, you'll get personal attention. We answer your concerns with our own voices because that's the way we were brought up, beginning way back in 1932.
Our prices are competitive, and our services are unmatched. It's a family tradition that we are proud to extend to all of our customers. Call us to learn more about our garbage and waste services.
