RECYCLING QUESTIONS? WE HAVE ANSWERS!

If you have questions about your residential trash service, you can download the Recycling and Trash Guide (click "download" link below), review answers to commonly asked questions below or call our Recycling Hotline at: 267-812-2950

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RESIDENTIAL TRASH CUSTOMERS

Bristol Township contracts with Waste Management to provide automated trash, recycling, and bulk trash pickup service to residences in Bristol Township.  Trash and recycling is collected once a week according to the schedule above. Trash, Recyclables, Yard Waste, and Bulk Waste are all picked up on the same day. As part of the program, all residential customers receive a 95-gallon green waste and 65-gallon blue recycling cart. The containers are the property of Bristol Township.

Can I place additional trash bags next to the cart?
No. All TRASH must be placed INSIDE the Township-issued waste carts. Trash left in bags on the ground or street will NOT be collected. These carts are the only containers to be used for the automated collection. In order to reduce collection costs and increase efficiency and safety, Bristol Township uses automated garbage and recycling collection trucks. Each driver operates a robotic arm to empty carts into the truck. As a result, bags or other items left outside the cart cannot be collected because there are no extra people on the truck to collect additional garbage. Any refuse not collected due to non-compliance must be removed from curbside by the resident by 10:00PM on the designated collection day. The resident will be responsible for proper disposal of refuse.


What if one cart is not enough for our family's weekly trash? May I get a second one?
Yes. Please note that you must contact Waste Management directly at 800-869-5566 to purchase an additional trash container. The Township does not supply additional containers.

I bought a cart at Home Depot that looks just like the ones we'll be using. May I use it?
No, the automated truck can ONLY pick up the containers approved by Bristol Township. Using a non-approved cart, other than the one provided by the hauler or township, will result in non-collection.

What if all my RECYCLING will not fit into one cart?
The above guidelines apply to TRASH only. Most households will find that recycling materials will easily fit into their cart. Crushing your bottles and cans, collapsing cardboard boxes and milk containers and compressing all materials will free up space so you can fit more in your recycling container. Since there is no limit to how much recyclable material may be placed out on each collection day, the Township recommends placing recyclable materials, such as cardboard, on top of the container for pickup should it not fit into the recycling container.

What about Bulk Items?

One (1) Bulk Item can be placed out each week on your regular collection day. Examples of bulk items include mattress, washer, dryer, desk, etc.  Bulk items CANNOT contain CFCs, HCFCs, Freon, refrigerants, or liquids. Township residents can schedule a courtesy pickup of an appliance containing Freon, CFC or HCFC, by calling Waste Management's Customer Service at 800-869-5566.

PLEASE NOTE THAT RESIDENTIAL RECYCLING IS REQUIRED BY ORDINANCE. Failure to comply with the guidelines above may result in the issuance of fines under the provisions of Chapter 134 Article II, 170-14 Municipal Waste Management at Residential Properties of Bristol Township Codified Ordinance. Your cooperation in following these guidelines above is greatly appreciated.
