West Hanover Township will have a different trash/recycling provider effective July 1, 2023. Republic Services was the low bidder and will provide the trash/recycling services and monthly yard waste pickup and bulk pickup. Waste Management will retrieve and recycle their containers, and Republic will issue each resident container the same size as what we currently have. There is the option to receive a 35-gallon (instead of a 96-gallon) container for trash. The cost of bag tags has almost tripled, so going with the quarterly service will be cheaper. Refuse companies are going fully automated, eliminating the need for a worker hanging on the back of the truck and risking getting hurt by something in a trash bag.
To be clear, as of July 1, 2023, bag tags will no longer be offered because of the cost. Current bag tag customers will need to be quarterly customers and can request a smaller container if needed.
