DELAWARE TOWNSHIP BULK DISPOSAL

Resident Bulk Disposal Sticker Application

2025 Disposal Days 

How It Works
In an effort to relieve the pressures of storing unwanted bulk items on your property, Delaware Township has initiated a program to meet the needs of our residents.  You may bring your unwanted bulk items the First and Third Saturday of each month from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to the recycling station located at 145 Wilson Hill Road (behind the ball field #4).  You may pay by cash or check.  Checks are to be made payable to “Delaware Township.”  NO TRAILERS ALLOWED.  Resident registration is required with the Township Office prior to using bulk disposal.

ITEMS FOR DISPOSAL:
