2020 Recycling Schedule

UPDATE 5/4/2020:

The Recycling Drop Off Center will be Re-Opening NEXT Monday, May 11, 2020.

We are asking the public to bear with us through this process!

Our recycling containers can ONLY HOLD SO MUCH, so there is no guarantee that we will be able to maintain normal hours of operation.

Recycling Center Drop-off Site Information

Location: 170 Race Street, east of the railroad overpass, behind the Borough garage.

Hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 7:30 am to 2:30 pm.

We will let you know if we need to close or if we can longer accept some goods while we wait for our containers to be emptied.

WHEN YOU DROP OFF YOUR RECYCLABLES:

PLEASE BE PATIENT – WE KNOW THAT MANY OF YOU HAVE A LOT TO RECYCLE AND IT MAY TAKE LONGER THAN NORMAL

EVERYONE MUST WEAR A MASK

EVERYONE MUST MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PLACING YOUR OWN RECYCLABLES IN THE CONTAINERS. NO TRASH ACCEPTED, RECYCLABLES ONLY

Thank you for your patience and understanding and being flexible as we begin to open things back up again.

Curbside recycling will resume on June 4th, 2020 due to COVID-19.

The Borough provides curbside and drop-off site information.
