Recycling & Bulk Pick-up
Information
Curbside Recycling Pickup is available for all residential dwellings located on roads regularly serviced by garbage haulers on the FIRST and THIRD MONDAY of

are required by law to recycle.
Material must be placed at the curbside the
evening before scheduled pickup - regardless of your
garbage contractor.
Bulk Pickup is provided March through November for
all residential dwellings located on roads regularly serviced by garbage haulers.
Bulk pickup will be during the 3rd full week of the
month. Items may be put out as early as Sunday of the
bulk pick-up week, but no sooner.
Additional information regarding recycling and bulk

Year Again...

Just a Reminder….
One never knows what the
winter will bring as far as the amount of
snowfall, so please keep in mind that Fredon Township Ordinances state that “no
snow which accumulates within private property is to be thrown, placed
or deposited upon the sidewalks,
streets or public roads of the Township”. Additionally, please make sure
that any private contractor plowing your
driveway complies with this ordinance, as
it is the property owners’ responsibility.
Snow plowed or shoveled onto the roadway
often creates an unexpected hazard for
drivers. Noncompliance with this ordinance may result in a notice of violation
and fines beginning at $100.00.
