Public works employees who normally operate the trash trucks on Friday will be reassinged to other duties on that day. In 2011, the township invested in new, larger capacity, high compaction automated collection trucks that allowed the township to go from four trucks collecting five days a week to five trucks collecting only four days a week.Ĭouncilman Steve Zeuli said the change in trash service shows how efficiently the township operates.

Kohl points out that the change will also cut down on the number of receptacles placed curbside on Fridays, which is the county’s recycling collection day for the township.īulk trash collection for the affected routes will also change, starting with the July collection.

“We feel we can provide a better service at a better price,” he said. He emphasizes that the change will not affect the quality of trash collection service, just make it more efficient. Superintendent of Public Works Tom Kohl points out that the change does not mean the townhip will be collecting less trash, but instead will be doing it more efficiently, allowing it to be done in four days rather than five. The new trash collection schedule will take effect on May 6 and will only effect those residents who have Friday trash collections and one neighborhood that has Thursday collections. Friday will no longer be a regularly scheduled trash day in the township. EVESHAM-While some neighboring towns are outsourcing trash collection services, Evesham Township has found a way to provide the service to its residents in just four days a week.
