NEW DATES
RE: Spring/Bulk Pickup
Dear Resident,
We are pleased to announce the REVISED 2020 Annual Spring Cleanup and Bulk Item Pickup. The pick-up dates by zone are as follows:
ZONES 2 & 4 - JUNE 1
ZONES 1 & 8 - JUNE 8
ZONES 3 & 5 - JUNE 15
ZONES 6 & 7 - JUNE 22
Please note the following:
- Please place all items curbside by 7am of your first scheduled pick up day. Due to the increased pedestrian street traffic, we are asking residents not to place items curbside until the weekend prior to your pickup date.
- Please note that NO TVs or other electronic items such as computers, printers, stereos, etc. may be placed curbside as per state regulations. However, all electronics may be brought to the Township Recycling Center throughout the year with no permit or fee required.
- It can take up to a week to complete the bulk pick-up in a particular zone, but once the truck has cleared your street of debris they will not return. (exceptions are large appliances that may be picked up separately)
- Millponds and Point De Jardin residents must place their bulk items at the center island in front of the unit in each court.
