Penn Township recycling site is running smoothly...except for the occasional items left by people who think we are the landfill...and it's still FREE!
Anyone caught leaving material we do not accept will be prosecuted.
Bins are clearly marked indicating what goes where.
There is an information flyer for recycler's on the fence with detailed
bin information and is updated as warranted.
Take a look at the board along the fence.
This displays items left
behind that are NOT accepted here.
Quick list of things to note:
-
All boxes must be broken down.
-
No deli trays, strawberry containers, clear plastic cookie trays and the like, these are NOT a #1 or #2 bottle or jug.
-
Take all your bags home with you - unless they contain shredded paper
-
Read the signs on bins, they are clearly marked.
-
Plate glass is not allowed - we are not the landfill.
-
Compressing any plastics and returning lid to container saves lots of space and makes our site even more efficient...keeping it free!
-
Cardboard bin - all cardboard, books (hard and soft cover), junk mail, packaging boxes, bagged shredded paer, ANYclean dry paper material go in this one bin!
The printable document below has a map of the site indicating
how the bins will be situated and what goes in each.
