Yard Waste Drop Off

  • Date: 08/13/2022 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM  

The Borough has expanded our Yard Waste Drop-Off program for resident. The compost facility is located at the rear entrance of the Borough’s wastewater treatment facility, 650 Erie Rd. The compost facility is only available to Borough residents and for yard waste generated in the Borough. Residents may be asked for ID to prove residency. Please follow signs for drop off location.

"Yard Waste" is defined as leaves, grass clippings, garden materials, shrub/hedge trimmings, weeds, and brush one inch or less in diameter. The yard waste drop-off and composting are the most environmentally and cost-effective method to collect and dispose of yard waste and leaves. After the material is composted, it is used as a soil enrichment and mulching for Borough use and is offered free to Borough residents.
