As to Lake County, it's complicated -- recycling is on Wednesdays for everyone; other trash (including lawn/grass items) are picked up on scheduled trash days.

Today was my recycling day in Silver Lake and the crew never came through to pick-up!!! Glad the trash guys came in the morning though!

If Tuesday is your regular trash pickup day, they will usually pickup whatever is left out. If you put out a recycle bag, they will probably take that, too. It will all be thrown in the regular garbage. It will not be recycled.
Yard waste is picked up on Wednesday throughout the Villages. These trucks go around and ONLY pick up lawn bags. Yard trash should only be left out after 9pm on Tuesday night.

I myself, appreciate the great service they provide!!! Cleanliness and neatness seems to be a priority here in The Villages. We get our moneys worth!!
