Recycling & Recycling Drop-Off Center
Perkasie Borough Public Works Department provides weekly curbside recycling collection services for Perkasie Borough residents. We do not provide a recycling bin, so residential households may use their own container to set out recyclables.
Perkasie Borough operates DUAL STREAM recycling, which means we ask you to set out PAPER & CARDBOARD separately from other recyclables (plastic, metal & glass).
Plastic, metals, glass are all collected together on the same day as your trash. Rinse everything and remove the caps and lids. Mix these items together in one bin.
Paper & cardboard are collected on Fridays. Fold everything flat and either bundle with twine or set inside a cardboard box or paper bag.
- Recyclables must be placed out by 7:00am on scheduled collection day. Do not place recycling out before 6:00pm the night before. No callbacks for recycling placed out later than 7:00am.
- All recyclables should be stored out of sight of the street. Do not store recycling on the street.

Recycling Drop Off Center
Residents of Perkasie Borough are invited to bring recyclables to the Recycling Drop Off Center. The Recycling Drop Off Center is for use by Borough residents only. USE BY COMMERCIAL, INSTITUTIONAL OR EDUCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED – EVEN IF RECYCLING IS GENERATED BY A BUSINESS OWNED BY A RESIDENT OF THE BOROUGH.
The Center has one collection area for plastic containers (#1, #2, #3 & #5), glass containers, and metal food & beverage containers, and another collection area for paper & cardboard. The Center also accepts most yard waste. Follow the signs when you arrive.
