Residential Trash Containers
Please note that Casella will only pick-up trash in provided containers. Additional non-authorized containers with trash are not permitted and will not be picked-up. Trash fees are determined on a per container basis. If you have additional trash that needs to be disposed of, please purchase trash bags at the Borough Building or contact us and we will arrange for another Casella trash cart to be added to your account.
UNAUTHORIZED RECYCLABLES
Twin Boroughs Recycling has seen a troubling increase in the number of hypodermic needles and containers holding bodily fluids in recyclables set out for pick-up. This is extremely dangerous for Twin Boroughs Recycling employees and violates several Borough Ordinances. We will cite, and potentially refer to SARP for criminal prosecution, any Borough resident that continues in this practice.

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.

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.
