Trash & RecyclingTrash & Recycling Did you know that trash is a renewable energy? The Lancaster County Solid Waste Management Authority (LCSWMA), the trash and recycling administrator for the Township, has developed an innovative system to provide the best combination of safe, clean, and efficient disposal for trash. It's called an Integrated System and it is the only one of it's kind. This integrated system allows for the disposal of waste in the most environmentally beneficial manner. The flow of waste into the landfill is greatly reduced and consumption of natural resources is reduced by generating energy (electricity) from waste and diverting a large portion for recycling or reuse. In fact, every 1 out of 9 homes in Lancaster County, benefits from the generation of electricity from waste. West Donegal Township residents participate in a mandatory trash and recycling program with one hauler. Beginning 2023, collection day is Monday (southside of Bainbridge Road) and Tuesday (northside of Bainbridge Road). Residents should place their trash, yard/woody waste, and recyclables curbside the evening before or no later than 5:00 a.m. Residents will be receiving a new Trash 96 gallon container equivalent to the prior year (3) 32 gallon bags, and a recycling container from Republic Services. NOTE: Extra bag tags can be purchased for a fee from the township office. For more information on the trash and recycling program, including yard/woody waste click here. Holiday Schedule: If the holiday falls on a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday trash/recycling service may be delayed a day. Republic Services observes the six major holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4th Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day. Please check the calendar located above for more information. Recycling Glass: Metals: Plastic Bottles: Corrugated Cardboard: Contamination items are NOT recyclable and should not be placed in the recycle bins. LCSWMA asked the local haulers to begin checking the curbside recyclables to eliminate contamination of non-recyclable items in the bins. Note: that contamination in the bin is NOT the same as those items that are no longer recyclable.
