Limited Special / Bulk Collections in August

The Jenkintown Public Works department will proceed with their Special Collections Program on a limited schedule in August as we continue to take the necessary safety precautions during the COVID-19 emergency.  Special collections for the month of August are scheduled on Wednesday, August 5th and Wednesday, August 19th.

Your collection request must be submitted no later than Tuesday, August 4th at 4:00 PMfor August 5th collections and Tuesday, August 18th at 4:00 PM for August 19th collections so a complete list can be compiled and provided to the Public Works Foreman for route scheduling.

You can schedule a special/bulk item collection by calling 215-885-0700opens phone dialer or email kriggins@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.  Reminder:  Borough Hall will be open Monday – Friday 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. by appointment only.
