September 18, 2023: For Mendham Township, the MCMUA collects single-stream mixed recyclables. This means that aluminum, glass bottles and jars, steel cans and plastic containers (#1, #2, #5 only) can be mixed with recyclable paper including newspaper, corrugated cardboard, junk mail, office paper, magazines, cartons, etc., for curbside collection. Additionally, none of the newspaper or cardboard needs to be bundled or tied. There is a 50-pound weight limit on the recycling container put out at curbside for collection by the MCMUA.

Prior to September 18, 2023, the collection was performed in a dual-stream manner where one week paper was collected and commingle containers collected on alternating weeks. With Single-Stream recycling, all acceptable recyclables can be mixed together for collection. For the convenience of resident, collection has been switched to Single-Stream.

Mendham Township does not provide a municipal recycling depot where recyclables can be dropped off. If you missed a recycling collection, please hold on to and put out the recyclables during the next available collection.
