Thank you for your patience!
Residents,
Our new municipal waste hauler, Waste Management, uses trucks with an automated arm on all streets except: Ann, Barry (left side), Church, Elm, Little Sarah (from N. 9th to N. 10th), Marion (from Stone to N. 8th), Monroe, North 6th, North 7th, North 10th, and Wallace (one-way section only). Knowing this all toters must be placed at the curb for the automated arms to reach and empty.
During this time of transition, the Borough appreciates your patience and kindness. If you have questions please call the Borough at 570-421-5444, ext. 109 to speak to Judy. Please see the picture below as an example of WHAT NOT TO DO!

Borough of Stroudsburg Ordinance | Alternate Side Parking
The Borough’s Ordinance on Alternate Side Parking (§ 15-307) requires vehicles to be moved, and physically parked, on the alternate side from 5:00 pm to 5:00 pm the next day. As a courtesy, we will not ticket vehicles from between 5:00 pm and 5:30 pm, giving everyone the time to move their vehicles without potentially receiving a ticket. Outside of this window, you will receive a ticket if you are parked on the wrong side of the street. We understand that this may be an inconvenience to some. However, having cars potentially parked on both sides of the street causes serious safety issues for both vehicles and pedestrians. We thank you in advance for your consideration and support.
Residental Parking Permits
Residential parking permits (Hill, West, South Districts) are now available to complete online for both Owners and Tenants. Please click here or the online payment icon (top right of the page) and follow the directions.
Your Input Needed | Take a Short Survey
Stroudsburg is considering a ban on single-use plastic carryout bags by businesses in the Borough. Numerous municipalities throughout Pennsylvania, and nationwide, as well as some states, have already enacted similar bans.
This ban would include plastic bags at the point of sale as well as for their use in pickup or delivery sales. As an alternative, businesses can either provide paper bags, have reusable bags for purchase, or encourage customers to bring their own reusable bags.
The plastic bag ban is an effort to reduce the use of wasteful single-use bags and their negative impact on the environment.
How do you feel about this potential change? Help us by taking a short, two question survey by clicking on the link below:

Sign the Petition to Scale Back the Expansion of I-80
Stroudsburg is the only town in Pennsylvania that is bisected by Interstate 80. The highway literally runs through the center of town, cutting Stroudsburg and South Stroudsburg in two.
PennDOT's proposal to expand I-80 will devastate the area, negatively impact the community, encroach on our pristine creek, streams and exceptional value watercourse, and require earthmoving activities (relocating a creek). It will crush Stroudsburg Borough, the Monroe County seat, and will wreak havoc on local businesses, cutting off accessibility to our thriving downtown Main Street. Two major hospitals, emergency services and fire companies will have dangerous response times due to the closure of two exits. Constant Main Street gridlock will be inevitable due to the closing of these exits and South Stroudsburg will be cut off with huge soundwalls.
This project will kill our tax base and lead to an increase in the borough tax, the school tax and the library tax. This would be devastating to our residents and business owners.
