Trash & Recycling | Borough of Stratford

Stratford has curbside trash, yard waste, and recycling collection services for residential homes. Please have items at your curb no sooner than 24 hours prior and containers brought back inside or from public view within 12 hours of the collection day.

Recycling Information: Due to the recent changes in recycling markets, please note Stratford has updated the boroughs recycling processing facilities are now requiring that each load delivered must not exceed certain levels of contamination.

If the loads collected from Stratford are determined to be contaminated, the Borough can be fined as much as $600.00 per load. Those contaminated loads will then be sent to a trash disposal facility. If we continue to send contaminated loads, our town could be shut down from recycling at the facility. That could create a very serious financial burden for our taxpayers.

Yard Waste Information: Every Monday until the end of October, the Trash and Recycling Team will be around to collect your yard waste.  We ask those homes who have trash collected on Monday to please place any yard waste off to one side, so the Team knows not to confuse it with the trash.  Also ALL yard waste must be either in the brown biodegradable paper yard bags, use trash containers or is tied in bundles.  NO PLASTIC TRASH BAGS should be used. 

The Team Members appreciate all your kind words of praise and your efforts to make the process move efficient.

Helpful Hints:
The following items are trash.  Please do not place them with your recycling.

  • Pizza boxes
  • Plastic Bags
  • Styrofoam
