Sanitation

Curbside Sanitation

Residents are reminded to place their trash at the curb prior to 6:00 a.m. on the day of their scheduled collection. Ideally, trash should be put out the night before the collection day to ensure on-time pick up.

Items placed at the curb should consist mainly of kitchen and bathroom garbage. When in doubt about whether or not an item can be recycled, throw it out!

To report a missed pick up, please call our trash hauler Giordano at (800) 216-2250 or the Millburn Department of Public Works at (973) 564-7060.

Notice on Bulky Waste

Items that are not in a trash or recycling receptacle cannot be placed at the curb and instead may be brought to the Town Yard. Residents may call DPW at (973) 564-7060 to verify that their Type 13 bulky waste items are accepted at the Yard.

Inclement Weather Alerts

In the case of inclement weather, please refer to the Giordano Company Inc. website for updates on collections. The Township will also push out alerts when information regarding trash or recycling collections are made available.
