DISPOSAL OF HOUSEHOLD WASTE

The Township provides its residents with curbside collection of recyclables and a drop off location for (cans/bottles paper/cardboard) recyclables weekdays, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.  at the DPW Yard, 231A Route 34.  Individual households are responsible for contracting directly with a cartage company for the removal of its household waste.  While the Township does not recommend specific cartage companies, you may want to speak with your neighbors and/or observe the names on the trash receptacles  and collection vehicles of these companies around town.
