Horse-drawn dairy home delivery in Illinois began to decline significantly in the mid-20th century, particularly after World War II. By the 1950s, the widespread adoption of motor vehicles and changes in consumer habits led to the cessation of most horse-drawn delivery services. While some localized deliveries might have persisted into the 1960s, the practice effectively ended as modern transportation and distribution methods took over.
