Bulk Collection Program

Overview

Berkeley Township's Department of Sanitation offers on-demand bulk collection. Items that cannot be picked up during regular trash collection, can be scheduled with the Public Works office. Bulk collection is available by appointment only to Berkeley Township residents. 

How It Works

1. Submit Your Request. 

Please start the scheduling process by filling out the Bulk Collection Request form. This request form is for bulk, appliance, metal, and electronic pickup scheduling.

2. Schedule with Public Works.

A representative from the Department of Public Works will be in contact with you to discuss next steps and provide you with your bulk collection timeframe. 

3. Set Out Your Items.

Place items at the curb the evening before your scheduled bulk collection timeframe, no earlier than 4:00 p.m.
