Why Is My Recycling Still on the Curb? Caldwell Pick Up Has Changed to Thursday

Both commingled and paper pick-ups have moved to later in the week.

When it comes to recycling pick up, Caldwell residents need to forget about Mondays and start thinking Thursdays.

After years of collecting recycling on Mondays, the borough changed last week to a Thursday schedule. By the looks of several Caldwell streets Tuesday, the message is still getting out.

The switch started last week and a new schedule has been posted on the borough's website (also see PDF attached).

Residents should continue to put their recycling out the evening before (Wednesday) or by 6 a.m. on Thursday. Commingled and paper weeks will continue to alternate. 

Caldwell contracts with the First Occupational Center for collection of paper and commingled recyclables.
