Application for City Curbside Collection

Allentown businesses and non-profit organizations that generate small quantities of trash and recyclables are eligible for City curbside trash & recycling collection. The annual fee of $340 includes:

Twice a week collection of trash, up to ten 40 gallon bags per week, and
Once a week curbside recycling collection of bottles, cans, cardboard, paperboard, mixed office paper, #1 through #7 plastic bottles & containers.

Corrugated cardboard may also be taken to the Allentown Recycling Drop Off Center located at Martin Luther King Jr Drive and 15th Street (open 24/7).

Participation in this program is optional. However, if you are not in City collection you must contract with a licensed trash and recycling hauler and comply with the City's mandatory recycling requirements. Anyone using City curbside collection is liable for payment for the service.
