Recycling Resources
NJWC sponsors town-wide Styrofoam recycling twice a year. We are also dedicated to support recycling beyond the paper, cans and bottles that can be recycled as part of the town trash pickup. To that end, we are compiling a list of resources to assist the community in recycling other items. Click here to see a list of other recyclable items and where they can be reprocessed or re-utilized. We would appreciate everyone’s assistance in keeping this resource up to date.
If you have information on additional resources or something we have listed is no longer in operation,
