Effective Spring 2023, both Avalon and Stone Harbor will implement new trash and recycling container requirements.
Stone Harbor:
“Standardizing trash can size to 64 gallons (31.8†long x 24.25†wide x 41.75†high), equipped with wheels and a bar that allows the can to be tipped into the truck. The Borough will provide a list of retailers where homeowners can purchase the cans. Required compliance is set for May 1, 2023â€.
Avalon:
“As previously announced, the Borough intends to purchase and distribute new, uniform roll off solid waste and recycling carts for the community in 2023. These roll off carts will improve efficiency with trash collection while restricting trash from impacting the marine environmentâ€.
Property owners in both towns are reminded to remove non-compliant containers prior to the summer season so tenants/guests do not inadvertently use the wrong trash or recycle cans. Bulk trash pick up in early May will be an ideal time for disposal of old cans.
