02/05/2025

Waste Management will NOT be collecting trash or recycling tomorrow, and will operate on a 1 day delay for the rest of the week.

02/05/2024

As a reminder - if your property qualifies to be included in the waste & recycling program, you will be charged for participation in the program. These charges are included in your quarterly utility bills.

Participation in the program is not dependent upon how much waste/recycling is generated and/or how much waste/recycling is placed at the curb on a weekly basis.

We highly encourage all residents to utilize the collection program as often as they need, but to also utilize the facilities that are available to all Palmer residents, the Hartley Avenue Recycling Center and the Berks Street Yard Waste Facility.

Please feel free to reach out to the Municipal building with any questions or concerns so that they may be addressed accordingly.

EARLY START FOR TRASH & RECYCLING SERVICE TOMORROW, 1/19/2024.

With the pending snow storm approaching our area tomorrow during the day, Waste Management will begin their daily collection 2 HOURS EARLIER than normal. This means that they will begin collecting at 4am.

Remember that service is on a 1 day delay this week due to the storm that hit our area earlier in the week. So, tomorrows collection will be for everyone who is normally serviced on Thursday.

If this applies to you, please be sure to have your toters at the curb TONIGHT to avoid being missed tomorrow.

As always, please call the Township at 610-253-7191 should you have any questions.
