Changes to the city's Refuse Rebate program last January have resulted in shorter timelines for filing and lower per unit rebates.
For 2012, only owner occupied units that received a rebate between January 2009 and November 2011 will be eligible to receive a rebate. The current rebate amount is $50/unit. Applications must be submitted to your Alderman's office by January 15th for the 2012 rebate.
For more details on the program and applicable forms, please see the Chicago City Council's Website.
