♻️ DPW Recycling Event (Even Households Only) Today 9am – 1pm

The Town of Reading is hosting two more community recycling drop-off events in June. The dates of these events are June 7 and June 21. These events are an excellent opportunity for residents to dispose of specific household items. The drop off event will be held at the DPW Yard, 75 Newcrossing Rd.

This Saturday June 7th (for EVEN numbered households only) is focused exclusively on the following items:
– Rigid Plastics
– Trash & Recycling Barrels

Please note: Do not block traffic, please follow instructions from police officers and staff. If the line is already back to the Stop and Shop entrance, it takes between 45-60 minutes from that point to reach the DPW yard.

There are dumpsters at the DPW available to residents daily to drop off extra bins and rigid plastic from the hours of 7:30AM-2:30PM M-F.

As a reminder there will be curbside collection opportunities on five Saturdays in July and August to dispose of existing trash & recycling carts, free of charge. The dates for the special collections can be seen below:

– July 12 – Monday trash route
– July 19 – Tuesday trash route
– July 26 – Wednesday trash route
– August 2 – Thursday trash route
– August 9 – Friday trash route

We appreciate your commitment to recycling and sustainability in Reading
