The Jenkintown Public Works team has worked to create a solution to resume with special collections in June during this emergency. The transfer facility has re-opened and the means and methods to safely proceed with collections has been developed.
The next scheduled Special/Bulk Collection will take place on Wednesday, June 17th. Your collection request must be submitted no later than Tuesday, June 16th at 4:00 PM so a complete list can be compiled and provided to the PW Foreman for route scheduling.
You can schedule a special/bulk item collection by calling 215-885-0700 and leave a message OR email glocke@jenkintownboro.comcreate new email and provide your address, item to be collected and contact information (i.e. phone/email). Payment can be made by mailing a check to Borough Hall at 700 Summit Avenue, Jenkintown, PA 19046, placing payment in the mail slot in the front door of Borough Hall, arranging for a porch pick up on the day of your scheduled collection OR payments can be made online or by phone with a credit card, however a service fee will be applied by the card service company which may make this method less favorable.
The Borough will continue to provide updates as the situation develops and adjustments are made to improve the special/bulk collection program.
Thank you for your continued patience while we navigate through this COVID-19 emergency.
