Call the Township for the RecycleBank Collection Schedule of your property. For questions relating to collection procedures and/or complaints, you may call Mascaro at 1-800-432-1616 during regular business hours [Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM].

The Township is participating in the innovative resident rewards based single-stream recycle program managed by RecycleBank. For questions relating to the rewards based program and/or complaints, you may call RecycleBank at 1-888-727-2978 or use their web site link above.

Single-Stream Recycling Means

You may mix all recyclable materials into one 64-gallon wheeled cart, no need to separate materials or even tie-or-bag newspapers.

Resident Rewards Based Program Means

You can earn rewards based upon the weight of the materials you recycle. The wheeled cart is embedded with an identification chip that is recorded while the collection truck weighs the cart. RecycleBank measures your recyclables and awards you points that may be redeemed for rewards at hundreds of national and local businesses or may be credited to non-profit organizations. You may call RecycleBank at 1-888-727-2978 or visit their web site to learn more about the rewards program or to activate your personal rewards account.

Recyclable Materials Include

All paper products [newspapers, magazines, office papers, envelopes, junk mail, telephone books] and cardboard products [corrugated, cereal boxes, etc.], glass bottles, glass jars, aluminum cans, steel cans, tin cans, aerosol cans, plastic detergent containers, plastic containers #1 and #2 [numbers marked inside a triangle located on container bottom] and plastic milk containers. ALL GLASS, METAL AND PLASTIC MUST BE EMPTY. You may call RecycleBank at 1-888-727-2978 or visit their web site to view the latest list of recyclable materials.

Collection Time begins at 7:00 AM

It is not possible to set firm collection times for each neighborhood because of unforeseen circumstances along the route. To ensure that your trash materials will be collected, it is recommended that you place them curbside the night before, but no earlier than 7:00 PM. NO RETURN TRUCK PICK-UP TRIPS WILL BE MADE.

All residential RecycleBank materials MUST BE ENCLOSED in the 64-gallon wheeled cart.
