Lawrence Township Eco-Waste Collection Program

Lawrence Township is offering an optional recycling program that allows residents the opportunity to compost their organic waste.  Removing organic materials from the waste stream will reduce the amount of trash that is taken to the landfill.  According to the EPA, food scraps and yard waste make up 20 to 30 percent of the waste stream.

The Cost is $17.00 per month and includes a 32-gallon recycle cart.

Community Notification System

The Township is using Nixle for its Community Notification System to alert residents in real-time for localized emergency situations and relevant community advisories.  The switch to Nixle has enhanced the Township's ability to keep the community informed and engaged in community events, traffic advisories and emergencies occurring in the Township.  If you have not registered yet, we encourage you to do so.  Click here to go to the Nixle website to register.

Material shall be placed in an area of the street not greater than four feet (4') from the edge of the pavement.  Trees greater than 8-inch caliper may not be disposed of through curbside collection.  Materials shall not be piled greater than three feet (3') in height.  Once the collection truck has collected your street, they will not return to your street until next month's collection.
