important changes to bulk trash collection for 2018! - Washington
2018 BULK HOUSEHOLD WASTE COLLECTION CHANGES In an effort to defray rising bulk waste collection and disposal costs, while at the same time enhancing the level of service to residents, there will be changes to curbside collection of bulk household waste in 2018. Beginning this year, bulk collection will be held twice per calendar year consisting of the first Friday in May (Friday, May 4th, 2018) and the third Friday in September (Friday, September 21st, 2018). The following are the new guidelines for bulk collection: • •
•
Bulk collection will require a sticker, which is to be affixed to items to be discarded. One sticker covers up to 500 pounds of material. No items will be picked up without a sticker!!! One (1) sticker will be issued per household or address currently receiving regular weekly trash pickup from the Borough’s contracted waste hauler, per collection date, free of charge. Additional stickers (each covering an additional 500 pounds of material) will be available for purchase at a cost of $25.00 each. Stickers will be available for pickup during normal business hours (8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.) at Borough Hall Monday through Friday. Stickers may also be picked up anytime between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. on the following dates: ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
• • • • • •
Tuesday, February 20th Tuesday, March 6th Tuesday, March 20th Tuesday, April 3rd Tuesday, April 17th Tuesday, May 1st
▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
Tuesday, July 10th Tuesday, July 24th Tuesday, August 7th Tuesday, August 21st Tuesday, September 4th Tuesday, September 18th
In order to obtain stickers, residents must show proof of address in the form of government issued personal identification or a utility bill. Stickers are only valid for bulk collection on dates listed on sticker. Residents shall have 60 days from the date of the last bulk collection of the year (Wednesday, November 21st for 2018) to redeem stickers purchased but not utilized. Stickers should be affixed to items unlikely to be picked up by scavengers (ie: metal items, furniture, etc…) Items placed curbside for bulk collection without a sticker affixed will not be picked up and property owners will be subject to fines. Please note that allowing individuals from outside of the Borough to bring in items for disposal results in higher disposal costs for all Borough residents! For questions regarding bulk collection, please contact Borough Hall at (908) 689-3600 x119
