Cart Information Cart Delivery
If you are new to the township and have bought an existing house the trash and recycle toters should have been left with the house.

If not, call the municipal building at (610) 253-7191 and report that the toters are not with the home.

If you have moved into a newly built house contact the same telephone number and the toters will be delivered to your new home.

Caring For Your Cart

  • Do not drag the cart when moving it. Tilt and roll it with the lid closed.
  • Keep lid closed at all times.
  • Clean the cart periodically with water.
  • Store the cart in the backyard, side yard, or garage.
  • Do not store it near a fireplace, furnace, grill or other heat source.
  • Do not place hot ashes, solvents, paints, or other flammable liquids in the cart.
  • Do not use the cart to hold hazardous materials such as: dead animals, chemicals, oils, flammable liquids, medical waste, exposed needles, used bandages, etc.
  • Do not place dirt, rocks, large limbs or building materials in the cart.
  • Do not place automotive parts or tires in the cart.
  • Do not overfill the cart to the extent the lid will not fully close. If the lid is not closed, garbage will spill onto the road during collection so the container will not be emptied.
  • Do not allow children to play in or on the cart.
  • Please DO NOT write house numbers or put any other marking on the carts.
  • The cart is the property of Palmer Township. If you move, the cart must remain with the property you are leaving.
