About the Division of Solid Waste & Recycling
Rahway residents and businesses are allowed to
commingle all of their newspapers, corrugated cardboard, magazines, books,
junk mail and other paper products. All of these materials can now be
placed in the same container for curbside collection on their scheduled
date.
Household special waste such as paints, chemicals,
etc. must be kept separate from regular household garbage .
Please call (908) 654-9889 or (732) 827-2159 or visit the Union
County Recycling page for disposal procedures and collection dates for
household special waste, electronics, smoke detectors, tires, etc.
Because solid waste costs are continuing to rise,
recycling is taking on added importance. By recycling these materials
in your household or business, you can help reduce our costs for garbage
disposal, help preserve our environment and save tax dollars. In the
past, newspapers had to be separated from other paper materials, which
discouraged many residents from recycling. The new program format
makes it very easy to recycle and we look forward to your participation.
Since its inception, the Division has saved
taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and provided the best solid waste
and recycling collection in Union County.
Please adhere to the guidelines on the
downloadable recycling map and schedule below. If you have any
questions please call the Division of Solid Waste and Recycling at (732)
827-2159 or e-mail us here.
