Waste Removal and Recycling
Waste Removal & Recycling within Newtown Township is handled by private waste haulers. If you live in a private residence you need to contract with a hauler directly. If you live in a development with a Homeowners Association you should first check with the HOA to see if they have contracted with a hauler to service the development.
I am a new resident, how do I obtain a trash can and recycle bin?
Your contracted waste hauler will provide containers. You may also purchase a recycling container at the Administration office for a fee of $12.00, while supplies last.
*If you live in a homeowner’s association, contact them first to see if they have made prior arrangements for waste removal within your development. It has been mentioned that if the majority of residents in a development use the same Waste Hauler, a discount may be given. (if your association has a website and is not listed, please have them contact us to be included on our association’s webpage)
For more information on recycling within Bucks County, or if you have any type of Hazardous Household Waste you need to dispose of please visit the Bucks County Planning Commission’s site for recycling.
Leaves and Yard Waste
In any month, other than a month of special collection of leaves and other yard waste by Haulers (Fall and Spring), Township residents may deposit their leaves and other yard waste at Sparks Industies (free of charge).
Leaves and other yard waste shall include leaves, garden residue, shrubbery and tree trimmings, and similar material, but not grass clippings.
As Sparks Industies does not accept grass clippings, please continue to place separately from leaves and other yard waste for your hauler to collect during normal collections.
If you have any questions regarding yard waste disposal, please contact Sparks Industies directly at (215) 345-4481.
