Cardboard Compactor
Beginning November 1, Peters Township will offer to
all residents and businesses within its borders cardboard
recycling services via a new compactor installed in the
parking lot behind the Peters Township Fire Department, 245 East
McMurray Road. Use of this compactor is restricted to daylight hours,
and the compactor can only be used to recycle crushed cardboard boxes.
Directions for operating the compactor are on a sign mounted on this
equipment. The Township encourages operation of the compactor by only
those residents over the age of 18. For any additional questions on utilizing
this new recycling tool, feel free to contact the Township at 724.941.4180.
Purchase and installation of this compactor was funded, in part, by a grant
from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection.
