Many Butler Township residents continue to take advantage of the recycling of electronics and hazardous household waste.
Butler Township Manager Tom Knights recently provided Township Commissioners with an update about collection by Waste Management in the second quarter of 2024.
According to the current figures, over 8,000 pounds of hazardous household and e-waste was collected from 80 households during April, May, and June including nearly 5,000 pounds of televisions, over 400 pounds of other electronics, and over 1,000 pounds of latex paint.
Items like tires, pharmaceuticals, and asbestos cannot be collected. Glass recycling continues to be available at the Butler Township building.
