Curbside Recycling
Recyclables do not need to be separated. Recyclables are currently collected under a newer system of recycling collection and sorting. Residents can use green, blue or yellow recycling cans for any eligible recycling materials. Your recycling must be out to your curb prior to 7 am the day of your pick up.
If your recycling is not collected on the day scheduled, please call (609) 443-4000, ext. 415. Be sure to provide your street address. Also be aware that recycling collection is often not completed until 6 or 7 P.M. due to the size of the route. When recycling is missed, the missed stops are collected within 24 hours from the time of notification to the contractor. Please do not remove recycling from the curb during that period.
