Our township is joining Exeter Borough’s Recycling Program. Exeter Borough will provide a recycling trailer with a divider separating 2 sections. Each section will be clearly marked either commingled or newspaper/cardboard. Please be certain to place the correct recyclable in the specified section. Residents are asked t bring their recycling materials in reusable containers to the Jackson Township Municipal Building, 2211 Huntsville Road, Jackson Township, PA. Please take the container home with you. No recyclable can be in a plastic bag. We cannot recycle plastic bags.
It is very important that all residents follow the recycling guides listed below. This avoids contamination and unnecessary manpower hours. Proper preparation insures the programs success!
