Recycling and Trash Information

Recycling and Waste Information

 

Spring Garden Township contracts with Penn Waste to remove trash and recyclable materials from properties located in the Township.  

A PDF showing the acceptable materials for recycling (click on "Recycle These Items") and what they are used for can be opened from this page by clicking on “Penn Waste Recycles”.

A good motto to remember is “When in doubt, throw it out!”  However, be assured that the non-recyclable trash does NOT go into a landfill anywhere.  The York County Solid Waste Authority burns all trash in their incinerator on Blackbridge Road to generate steam which powers electrical generating turbines – so-called “Waste to Energy”.

Please try to comply with the new requirements for recycling so that reusable materials actually do end up in new products.
