*NEW* For fall the Township is starting a pilot program to cut down on single use plastics.
We are now accepting COMPOSTABLE BROWN PAPER BAGS for curbside leaf collection.
By using the
compostable brown paper bags everything placed curbside for leaf collection can now be recycled thus eliminating the use of any non-compostable items in leaf collection.
This increases efficiency in collections, is overall better for the environment and helps keep Toms River Township clean.
They are available locally at a variety of stores including:
Home depot,
Lowes
Costco
Bj’s Wholesale,
Walmart
Amazon. Tree and shrub cuttings and branches shouldn't be in bags. They can be brought to the recycling convenience center located at 1672 Church Road in Toms River.
