Fees

The Borough’s waste disposal service provides curbside trash and recycling collection, curbside bulky waste and appliance collection, and curbside leaf and yard waste collection. Fees cover the costs of waste collection and responsible disposal, and the costs of operations at the Borough’s Residential Recycling Drop Off Center. 

All residential properties are billed $50 annually, in addition to the following charges for trash service. Residents may choose to use the Pay-As-You-Go or the wheeled toter.

Pay-As_You-Go bags may be purchased from Borough Hall or local grocery stores during opening hours. Bags are used instead of, or in addition to, a wheeled toter. From January 1st, 2025, bags cost $3.75 (small) or $4.75 (large).

Residents may use this Wheeled Cart Service Sign-Up Form to sign up for one or more wheeled carts. Fully complete the form then bring it to Perkasie Borough Hall during opening hours. Wheeled toters are billed quarterly. From 1st January 2025 the quarterly fee is $87.50 per can, per quarter.
