TRASH & RECYCLING SCHEDULE/INFORMATION:

Beginning January 1, 2024, A.J. Blosenski will be the new contracted hauler for residential trash and recycling collection for East Fallowfield Township.

Trash pick up is every Friday. Please note that when a holiday falls within the week, trash/recycling pickup will be picked up on Saturday. Holidays are: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. Holidays that fall on a Saturday or Sunday do not affect your trash pickup.

Collection of trash is limited to what will fit inside the 96 gallon Township-provided container. Please put your trash toters out Thursday night to ensure your trash is not missed during pickup.

Recycling collection is unlimited. Should your recycling not fit in your 96-gallon Township-provided container, you can use your own container clearly labeled as 'Recycling,' or place flattened cardboard that will not fit inside the recycling container next to your recycling container. Recycling pick up is every other Friday. For more information, call us at 610-384-2104 or email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

BULK TRASH PICKUP:

Bulk trash (including white goods) is collected on the first Friday of each month. Limit of two bulk items once a month for each collection day. No appointment is necessary.

Bulk waste and white goods (metal appliances) must be placed curbside the night before, or prior to 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled day of collection.  Appliances containing Freon must have a certified tag from a technician to document the Freon has been properly removed. No E-Waste, Construction Waste, Hazardous Waste, or Tires will be accepted.

Please note that A.J.Blosenski requires that all mattresses and box springs placed out for bulk collection must be wrapped in plastic. This is in accordance with industry standards and is for the safety of hauler employees. Unwrapped mattresses are a hazard risk due to potential pests as well as the potential for excessive weight due to precipitation. Plastic mattress bags may be purchased at most hardware and home improvement stores.

ELECTRONICS ARE ACCEPTED FOR RECYCLING AT THE TOWNSHIP BUILDING

If you intend to replace a television, computer monitor, laptop or desktop computer, or a computer printer don’t leave the old TV or machines at the curb and expect the trash hauler to take them away. They won’t!

Pennsylvania’s Covered Device Recycling Act forbids trash haulers from accepting electronic materials as trash, and requires that they be recycled.

Township residents can now drop off electronic items (Televisions, Computers Laptops and tablets, Monitors, Computer Keyboards, Computer Mice, and Printers) at the FREE recycling drop off center at the Township’s Municipal Building-2264 Strasburg Road). The drop off site is open on weekdays from 8:00AM until 4:00PM, No appointments are necessary.

Anyone dropping off electronics MUST first stop at the Office and show a valid ID or a copy of a utility bill identifying that they are a resident of East Fallowfield Township. Electronics may NOT be left outside at the Municipal Building or collection site when the facility is closed.

The service is FREE for Township residents. For more information call 610-384-2104.
