Open Burning Prohibited

Burning trash, recyclables, leaves, limbs, tree stumps or yard debris of any kind, whether in an open fire or in a barrel-type container, is strictly prohibited in the Township. This prohibition has been in effect since the spring of 2012.

  • Weekly Curbside Collection of Trash and Recycling.

  • Monthly Curbside Bulk Trash Collection.

  • Six Curbside Yard Waste Collection dates per year.

  • Four Leaf Collection weeks per year.

  • A limited Wood Chipping Service performed by the Township. (Public Works staff is available on request.)

  • The Township operates a Recycle Drop-Off Center.

  • The Township co-sponsors multiple Hazardous Household Waste Collection Events throughout the year.

  • The Township co-sponsors an annual Shredding & E-Waste Recycling Event.
