If you would like a copy of the township's recycling ordinance please send your name, address or fax number to the township office.

Texas Township has adopted an ordinance which requires all waste hauling companies to provide their residential garbage customers with at least monthly curbside recycling pickup and the choice of volume-based garbage containers.

It is not mandatory that you use the recycling service, but, as an incentive to participate in community efforts to reduce our dependency on landfills, the ordinance requires waste hauling companies to assess any possible recycling charge to all residential garbage customers uniformly, whether or not they take advantage of the recycling service. In other words, recycling is automatically provided to all residential garbage customers.

To offset any possible recycling charge, households are encourages to recycle and subscribe to a service using a smaller, less expensive garbage container, including variable sized carts and bag service.

Also, you may elect to purchase pickup services for yard waste and special bulk trash pickup from your waste hauling company for a separate charge.
