Recycling Center plans to be open in the upcoming week to accept materials with temporary hours set, beginning June 9. Public drop off will not be open, according to Susquehanna County Chief Clerk Rebekah Hubbard.
The center, located at 133 Ellsworth Drive in Bridgewater Twp., will be open to the public on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with no appointment necessary, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The Recycling Center will not be accepting trailer loads of materials or scrap metal.
Commercial businesses can also bring in loads of recycling materials and are encouraged to do so on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays instead of the public hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Those taking recycling items to the center must wear face masks on the site. Proof of county residency is required and those bringing in materials will be directed to an area where staff members will unload it for them.
