The City Recycling Drop-off Center, 850 Jacksonville Rd., accepts recyclables scrap metal , and appliances without freon (NO- AC units, refrigerators , or freezers) (see: Recycling: What Gets Collected).
These items should be taken to the Burlington County landfill, or disposed in a dumpster at your own expense.
Every other Friday, our curbside recyclables are collected by Burlington County. As of September 2014, Single-stream recycling began for those neighborhoods that could accommodate larger, blue carts.
Recyclables need to be at the curb by 6:00 am.
