2023 Stroudsburg Borough Solid Waste Billing
For 2023, billing for the Borough’s Solid Waste (Trash) service is on a compressed time schedule. The Third Quarter bill was mailed on June 30th and is due on July 30th; the Second Quarter bill was due on June 15th. We are transitioning to a billing schedule that has customers billed the beginning of every quarter and due 30 days later. Our Fourth Quarter bills will be mailed on September 30th and will be due October 30th. Going forward, we will maintain our schedule of quarterly billings mailed on September 30th; December 31st; March 31st; and June 30th.
We appreciate your patience as we continue implementing our Solid Waste Ordinance!
