Residential and Commercial Trash & Recycling

Trash

Trash collection is every Wednesday.

Residents are encouraged to place their trash containers curbside the evening prior to collection day. Each household unit and participating commercial business is allowed a maximum of (6) thirty-two gallon containers not to exceed fifty (50) pounds each.

Recycling

Recycling pick-up is every Wednesday.

This is a separate truck just for recycling pick-up. Because trash and recycling are on the same day, we ask that you use Recycling Containers only. Call the Borough office to request a recycling container if you have not received one. Limit one per household. Additional cans may be purchased for $10.00.

Holiday Pick-up – Thursday

When a MAJOR Holiday falls on Monday thru Wednesday, trash will be picked-up on Thursday of that week. 

Bulk Clean-up

Residents are allowed to place one bulk item out each week for pickup. 

Yard Waste

All yard waste should be taken to the Sinking Spring Yard Waste Site located in the rear of 152 Woodrow Avenue. Follow the signs.
