UPDATE: In recent days, residents received notification from Waste Connections regarding the selection of a cart for trash service. Waste Connections has agreed to extend the deadline to April 30, 2025. We ask that residents please return the postage paid postcards as soon as possible. These containers will be provided free to residents. Please note, this change in service DOES NOT affect recycling and yard waste. Those services will continue as usual. Thank you for your patience as we navigate through this update in trash service.
***********
Beginning in the next few months, The City of Crystal Lake Park and its contracted trash hauler, Waste Connections, will be switching to an automated trash cart service from manual bagged or your personal container collection.
The waste industry has been transitioning away from manual collection for many years, and trash haulers in St. Louis no longer offer this service. Additionally, because the job is very physical and exposes workers to extreme heat and cold, contractors are unable to attract and retain enough workers.
Trash carts will preserve and protect the aesthetics of the city by keeping the trash contained in a leak-proof cart and decreasing the animal and windblown litter throughout the neighborhoods. Carts will also enhance the level of customer service by providing a more consistent, reliable, and dependable service schedule for residents.
For questions regarding your cart selection and other waste management issues, please contact Waste Connections, Customer Service, 636-321-2100 (8:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m. Monday-Friday).
Thank you for your patience during this transformation.

We are encouraging residents to take steps to protect their property and prevent crime by not presenting crimes of opportunity. This is to serve as a reminder to lock your vehicle doors and remove any valuables, even when parking in your driveway.
Criminals look for easy targets. You can make it more difficult for them by following the #9PMRoutine! Many vehicle burglaries, and to a lesser degree, stolen vehicles, occur as a result of vehicles being left unlocked. Criminals walk through neighborhoods, trying vehicle door handles, hoping to find an unlocked vehicle. The best way to prevent vehicle burglaries is to remove all of your valuables, lock your vehicle’s doors upon exiting and take the keys to the vehicle inside your residence.
The Frontenac Police Department strives to promote active participation amongst residents to report suspicious activity when it is observed. The public is a valuable partner in the prevention and solving of crime. We ask the residents of the City of Crystal Lake Park to be aware of any suspicious activity and to report it to Police immediately. If you observe something that seems suspicious, we ask that you call 911 or the Non-Emergency Number @ 314-737-4600 so an officer can be dispatched to investigate.
The Frontenac Police Department is a full service public safety agency providing quality policing services to the citizens of Frontenac, Crystal Lake Park, Huntleigh, and Westwood. The twenty-one sworn officers and one civilian staff member are committed to the established departmental Mission and Values that frame our partnership with the community we serve. It is this partnership that fosters the wonderful quality of life that those who live and work in our area enjoy.
If you observe any suspicious activity, please contact Frontenac Police. If you see something, please say something.
