2025 Refuse and Recycling

The 2025 quarterly refuse and recycling bill from the service provider (Penn Waste) has increased $109.70 effective January 1, 2025.  The changes in the contract costs consist of a $4.00 quarterly increase from 2024 to 2025, and a quarterly tipping fee of $1.74. A tipping fee is paid by those who dispose of waste in a landfill; it is used to cover the costs of opening, maintaining, and closing the landfill, as well as the costs of disposing of waste and to offset the cost of operations.

On September 19., 2024, The York County Solid Waste Authority released the following statement:
