What is the protocol for when our recycle or garbage collection day falls on a holiday?
When your trash pickup is scheduled for a holiday, the trash will be picked up the following day. When the recycling is scheduled for a holiday it will be picked up the following Saturday. The holiday schedule can be found on our website, ewingnj.org.
It’s the time of year when residents start cleaning up their yards. What’s the procedure for yard debris gathered during spring cleaning? Should people be leaving their brush and leaves at the curb for pickup?
We will be picking up brush and spring cleaning starting in mid-April. This can be placed at the curb similarly to what we do in the fall season.
Small sticks and branches can be placed in the recycling bags that will be picked up the day after your regular trash pickup.
If you don’t have a vehicle that can bring the branches over to the drop off facility, it may have to wait until we start the pickup in mid-April, or you can rent a Home Depot, Lowes or U-Haul truck/trailer in bring it over the drop off site. No other commercial vehicles are permitted.
Starting in mid-April we will once again start picking up the debris from spring cleanup. You can leave it in the street at the curb.
You can also place in the recycle bags and we will pick it up the day after your regular trash pick-up. If you have a vehicle that can be used for the debris you can also bring it to the drop off location
If you have a question for the mayor for next month’s edition, submit it by emailing bsanservino@communitynews.org or by going to communitynews.org. You must be a Ewing resident.
