[Amended 12-27-2023 by Ord. No. 2023-20]
Solid waste/recycling municipal dropoff center: The Borough shall provide a solid waste/recycling dropoff site center, which shall be located at the Lindenwold Public Works Building, during regular business hours of the Public Works Department. This dropoff is to be used for residential solid waste/recycling that is inconvenient to place at curbside for scheduled bulk pickup. No construction debris in excess of 50 pounds generated by an individual, or from a single site, shall be deposited at the municipal dropoff site. All debris in excess of 50 pounds shall be taken to an approved recycling center or landfill. Proof of residency in the Borough of Lindenwold is required in order to use the municipal solid waste/recycling dropoff site. Such proof may be provided by a resident showing his or her driver's license or vehicle registration. In the event that a nonresident contractor is hauling bulk trash for a resident to the municipal dropoff site, a letter stating the resident's name, address and telephone number and the contractor's authorization to haul bulk trash from that residence with the resident's signature is required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and within the discretion of the Public Works Superintendent, in-person authorization, given directly by the resident to the Public Works Superintendent or his designee, may be required before admittance of the nonresident contractor to the dropoff site.
