EFFECTIVE MARCH 7^TH (SATURDAY) 2009

To Plumsted Township Residents:

IN ANTICIPATION OF THE SPRING CLEAN UP SEASON, RESIDENTS ARE ADVISED THAT THE SATURDAY MORNING BULKY WASTE CONTAINER SERVICE WILL CHANGE FROM “A FIRST COME – FIRST SERVED” BASIS TO A CALL-IN APPOINTMENT SCHEDULE TO ELIMINATE THE INCONVENIENCE OF RESIDENTS BEING SHUT OUT AND TURNED AWAY WHEN CONTAINER DUMPSTERS ARE FULL.  THIS PROCESS HAS PROVEN TO BE VERY SUCCESFUL ON WEDNESDAY EVENINGS AND IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT IT WILL BE SUCCESSFUL AS WELL FOR THE SATURDAY BULK WASTE PROCESS.

BEGINNING IN MARCH 2009 RESIDENTS ARE ADVISED TO CALL 609-758-2241 EXT 199 IN ADVANCE TO SCHEDULE ALL BULKY WASTE APPOINTMENTS. IF THE ALLOTED BULK WASTE SLOTS ARE FILLED RESIDENTS DURING A PARTICULAR WEEK RESIDENTS WILL BE PLACED ON THE LIST FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK.

THE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON BULKY WASTE CONTAINER SERVICE BY CALL-IN APPOINTMENTS WILL CONTINUE WITHOUT CHANGE TO PROVIDE RESIDENTS WITH THE SERVICE TWO (2) DAYS EVERY WEEK WITHOUT THE INCONVENIENCE OF BEING TURNED AWAY OR SHUT OUT.

THIS POLICY DOES NOT AFFECT THE TOWNSHIP RECYCLING OF NEWSPAPER, BULK PAPER, PLASTICS, CARDBOARD, ETC.  THESE FACILITIES WILL BE AVAILABLE AS THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE PAST.
