Heads up, Bordentown! 🌿 Our Public Works team is out collecting brush, but they’re noticing a lot of yard waste mixed in—like grass clippings, weeds, and garden debris.
Yard waste should go in your regular trash can, not the brush pile. Mixing them can damage the chipper and slow down collection. Let’s keep brush piles to branches only (small to large). Thanks for your help in keeping things running smoothly!

Heads up, Bordentown!
This week’s bulk pickup change from Monday, May 26 to Friday, May 30 is for Zones 2 & 3 only.
