Recycling Beyond Curbside
Do you have items to discard which are NOT taken curbside? The Montgomery Township Environmental Commission has prepared this very helpful Recycling Beyond Curbside webpage to assist you in locating recycling destinations/options.
Drop-off bin for Recyclables at Montgomery Public Works Yard
For the convenience of our residents, Montgomery Township also provides a Recycling Drop-Off location for residents to dispose of their recyclables without charge. The drop-off bin is located at:
Public Works Yard
12 Harlingen Road
Belle Mead, NJ 08502
The recyclable items are the same items (glass/plastics/cans/paper/cardboard etc) that are regularly picked up every other Friday by Somerset County Recycling. This opportunity is for recycling only – no trash will be accepted. Proof of Montgomery Twp. residency may be required. The items should be prepared just as they would be for curbside pick-up. Cardboard boxes should be broken down flat and tied together. Glass, plastic, and cans can be mixed together, but should be separated from cardboard and waste paper. Nothing should be left outside the bin, which is partitioned into two sections. Recycling must be placed in the correct section.
Any questions, please call the Montgomery Twp. Dept. Public Works at 908-874-3144.
