Refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, furniture and similar items will be collected. No more than three bulk items should be placed for collection at one time. Tree limbs are collected, providing they are no more than 5 inches in diameter, are neatly piled and are not mixed with other refuse or yard waste. If no private arrangements can be made to dispose of these items, the Borough will remove them at cost plus labor and disposal fees. The Borough collects used Christmas trees as a service to its residents.
Collection begins on the first working day after New Years' Day and lasts about two weeks.
Old Christmas trees put out for collection are chipped. The chips are used for Borough horticulture planting areas and are made available to residents by composting. All nails or other metal should be removed before putting trees out for collection. Residents wishing to take advantage of this service should place their Christmas tree at the curb. Fees Rates for collecting refuse vary, depending upon the type of service you receive.
