Let's Talk Trash! We knew the transition of trash haulers would not go without some issues. There have been many changes beyond our control that we simply could not communicate. The new containers are being delivered now. Here's what you need to know. Use the blue republic containers until Republic takes them OR it's the new year. Republic is not allowed to go onto your property to take them so leave them out this Wednesday. The new trash containers are all black, recycling containers are black with a blue lid and yard waste containers are brown

Thank you! I had forgotten when we needed to stop using the old ones
Are they picking up the old one?
Does anyone know if the yard waste containers will be like the old schedule? One pick up the last trash day of the month or can you put them out every week. Also, I saw no mention of putting out large items.
When would they start picking up trash?
What’s the name of the trash pick up they didn’t take our trash today?
Penbrook Borough Offices will be closed starting today at 12:30pm and because of the snow emergency we will advise when we re-open. Staff will be available by telephone or email. The dropbox is here but please stay off the streets if at all possible. Thank you.
