Somerset Township issued the following announcement on April 16.
In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Somerset Township has been forced to modify the 2020 Spring Clean Up provided to Somerset Township Residents. This year’s Clean Up will be held May 4th –May 7th 2020; however, residents will be required to bring Bulky Waste Items to the Somerset Township Municipal Building, 2209 N. Center Avenue, Somerset, and dispose items into the Roll -Off Containers from the hours of 6 a.m.-8p.m. A high lift will be on site to help residents to place items in the containers. All bulky waste items must be brought to the municipal building as township crews will NOT be picking up items at residences. Somerset Township is waving all fees this year; however, Somerset Township Residents MUST provide proof of residency—driver’s license and/or current utility bill. Anyone who violates the proof of residency requirement shall be prosecuted.
ABSOULUTELY NO E-WASTE (TV/Electronics) OR TIRES WILL BE ACCEPTED AT THIS YEARS CLEAN-UP! Somerset Township is recommending that residents take tires to a local tire dealership. Appliances containing Freon will be accepted at the site.
Items that will not be accepted:
*Propane Cylinders *Batteries *Motor Oil
*Tree Limbs *Brush * Paint Cans with lids on
*Leaves *Ashes * Household Garbage
Somerset Township will still be donating the proceeds from the sale of scrap metal to the fire departments that service Somerset Township. STEALING SCRAP METAL IS LIKE
STEALING FROM YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT--SO DO NOT DO IT!
Somerset Township Officials still want to provide the residents of the township an opportunity to dispose of unwanted items during the COVID-19 Pandemic. They would like to thank residents for understanding the reasoning for modifying the Spring Clean Up this year.
Any questions can be directed to the Somerset Township Office at 814-445-4675.
