Hellertown Residents:
Our Sanitation Department works hard to meet the sanitation and recycling needs of our community. Trash is collected from all residential units, apartments, commercial and institutional buildings five days a week. Residential Recycling is collected every other week. Garbage pickup plays a vital role in waste management and recycling, contributing to a cleaner environment, healthier communities, and a more sustainable future.
Here is some helpful advice from the Sanitation Department
*Place all trash in bags before placing in your container
Throwing your trash into a container without a bag leaves a mess that can be hard to clean and attract pests. Put all of your garbage in a plastic bag, tie it off so it doesn’t spill out, then take it out to the container – preferably a 30 gallon can or totter.
*Place your container out the night before
Due to road and utility work, weather conditions, and other municipal work, your trash may be picked up earlier or later than usual. It’s always a good idea to have it out the night before your scheduled collection. Because of continued growth and time constraints, if your trash is not out, it will not be collected until the following week.
*LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Place the container at least 4 feet from any tree, utility pole, mailbox, fire hydrant and at least 5 feet from any cars parked. Cars parked within 5 feet of the container will inhibit or even prevent collection.
*THERE IS A REASON YOU WERE TAGGED!
If you see a green tag on your trash, please read it carefully! There is an explanation why it wasn’t collected. Items that are not collected include televisions and computer equipment, appliances, liquid waste, hazardous household waste, medical waste, construction materials, furniture, dead animals, dirt, rocks, building materials, tires and car parts. Call the Borough office and we’ll walk you through how to dispose of properly.
By following these simple guidelines, we can continue to beautify our community but also eases the burden on municipal waste services.
In addition, here is a comprehensive list of drop-off locations for disposal and recycling.
