Due to the ongoing effects of COVID-19, J.P. Mascaro & Sons has advised that there will be continued delays in the collection of household trash, recycling and yard waste in Northampton Township.
The township has been actively monitoring collections and communicating with Mascaro on a regular basis to ensure that Mascaro is aware of any issues observed by the township or reported by residents.
Residents should continue to place household trash, recycling and yard waste curbside as they normally would on the assigned days. Mascaro will pick up items as soon as they can in the following priority:
– Priority #1: Household Trash – For health and safety reasons, all household trash should be placed in bags, and preferably inside containers.
– Priority #2: Household Recyclables – All recyclable materials should be placed loosely (not inside bags) inside clearly marked recycling containers; not outside or next to the container. All large recyclables, such as cardboard boxes, should be broken down to fit in the recycling containers.
– Priority #3: Yard Waste – Preferably, all yard waste should be placed in biodegradable bags. Please note that yard waste may be collected on weekends.
