Des Plaines, Illinois is a diverse city of approximately 60,700 residents in Cook County, located immediately northwest of Chicago and bordering O’Hare International Airport. Named after the Des Plaines River that flows through the city, Des Plaines was incorporated in 1925 and has developed into a major suburban hub with a mix of residential neighborhoods, commercial corridors, and industrial areas. The city is also home to the first McDonald’s restaurant, opened by Ray Kroc in 1955 on Lee Street (now a museum). Des Plaines’ diverse housing stock, from post-war bungalows to modern townhomes, creates constant demand for renovation and cleanout projects. EcoBox Dumpsters provides affordable roll-off dumpster rental with transparent pricing and reliable delivery throughout Des Plaines.
