Items should be compact and not exceed 50lbs in weight to allow one worker to lift. Organics and light branches should also be compact and bound for curbside removal. The Trash & Recycling Facility on Watsontown-New Freedom Rd will remain open for all residents. Proper ID and proof of address is required.Trash & Recycling Facility
