Grass Clippings:
Are collected every Monday, except holidays. Place clippings in open plastic bags or containers and place at the curb. We encourage all residents to “cut it and leave it” when it comes to grass clippings. Grass clippings left on the lawn provide a natural fertilizer and help to reduce the growth of weeds. They can also be used as an effective mulch in your garden or put them in your compost pile to help create an excellent soil conditioner. Avoid time consuming raking and the expense of bagging your grass clippings.
Brush:
Must be tied with string or cord in bundles no more than 4 feet in length and 1 foot in height. Place curbside for Monday collection, except holidays.
Automobile Tires:
*Automobile tires will not be collected. You may recycle them at a county drop-off trailer located at the East Brunswick Recycling Center at 357 Dunhams Corner Road, East Brunswick, NJ Monday thru Friday: 8AM – 4 PM, Saturday: 8:30 AM – 2 PM. Paint cans may be dropped off at the same location on the first Saturday of each month from 8 AM
