Automated Recycling Collection: With the upcoming re-bidding of our solid waste collection contract this fall, we will begin migrating to an automated collection system. Phase I, beginning in October, will involve recycling. We will be providing all households with one (1) 95-gallon container for residential use. By request, those desiring a smaller, lighter option, may obtain a 65-gallon container. This may be preferred by seniors. To receive a 65-gallon container, request one by calling the Borough Hall at (856) 783-6655 extension 102 by September 18. If you do not request a smaller container, a 95-gallon unit will be delivered to your household in late September. The container will be registered to your address and remains the property of the Borough. This change will take place beginning with the first collection in October. It will be important to place your container curbside in the proper position to facilitate collection.

Solid Waste (Trash) will continue to be collected as usual. We expect to eventually migrate that to the automated collection system.
