RECYCLING

| Mandatory
Recycling |
Shrewsbury Borough Ordinance 1991-1 makes recycling mandatory for
residential customers and large commercial/industrial businesses. There is a fine for violation of not less than $25.00 or more than $600.00 plus costs of prosecution, and if in default of payment thereof, imprisonment for not more than thirty days. Each continuing day of violation of the ordinance shall constitute a separate offense. The Borough receives a yearly grant based on the tonnage recycled.
This money is applied toward the annual refuse costs. Guidelines for recycling can be seen by clicking here. Guidelines for large items can be seen by clicking here.
