Single-stream recycling collection is provided curbside every Wednesday, through a third-party contractor, included in your annual property tax bill.
Recycling is required and the easy method of single stream collection permits the placing of all items (glass bottles and jars, metal cans, mixed paper, cardboard, and # 1 and 2 plastics) into a single container. Cardboard that is not in a container should be flattened, bundled, and tied. Receptacles should be placed curbside before 6AM and no sooner than 6PM of the day before collection.
One (1) FREE 20-gallon recycling container is available per single family while supplies last. Visit DPU (75 Chestnut Street) to claim yours.
Recycling helps save money by reducing the amount of tipping fees paid associated with trash and helps generate revenue through recycling tonnage grants. Recycling grants to the Borough are based upon the amount of material we recycle yearly so we can actually make money as a result of increasing our recycling grants. It truly does pay to recycle.
Recycled materials should be clean, dry and empty. Plastic bags are prohibited and will result in non-collection.
