Find Your New Waste Service Day

Beginning January 6th, Waste Management began to implement a new trash collection schedule featuring once-a-week collection in Middletown Township. Trash, recycling, and yard waste will all be picked up on the same day, with bulk waste collected during the third week of each month on your collection day.  Click here to learn more

Christmas trees are picked up on residents’ collection day throughout the month of January.  Make sure all of the decorations and lights are removed.  Do not place trees in plastic bags.

Special Announcement from Waste Management

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM WM

February 3, 2025

Township residents have started receiving letters providing you with a Customer ID directly related to your collection service address, so that you can setup your online My WM Profile. We appreciate your willingness to manage your service account directly on your phone or laptop.

We have been made aware that some of these letters contained an incorrect Customer ID.

After speaking with our print service, they have confirmed that the error was made by them during production of the individualized letters. They sincerely apologize for the confusion and are correcting the problem quickly.

Please DO NOT call the Township office or WM Customer Experience directly about your Customer IDs, as it will slow the process of getting your corrected ID numbers to you. New Customer ID information will be coming to you by mail early next week.

You will receive a new letter with your correct Customer ID number on it. This number may be the same one you already received, but we want to ensure we didn’t miss any resident who may have received a letter with incorrect information. Please destroy the original notice you received and use the corrected ID number once you receive it.

Providing direct access to residents to their municipal service account is a relatively new service provided by WM, and unfortunately, a few glitches have occurred. These were unanticipated and unfortunately has created confusion unnecessarily. We apologize for the inaccurate information.

We appreciate your understanding and patience, as we move forward to provide you with the quality services you deserve.

Sincerely,
Waste Management

Middletown Township Awarded the Distinguished Budget Award

Jump to calendar

Middletown Township was awarded the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for its 2023 Budget for the fifth consecutive year. Out of nearly 3,000 municipalities and governmental authorities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Township is one of fewer than two dozen governmental bodies in Pennsylvania to earn this achievement in 2023.
 
Of the nearly 89,000 units of local government in the United States, the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is earned by less than 1% of governmental agencies.
 
In order to receive this award, the Township had to satisfy nationally-recognized guidelines for effective budget presentation.  These guidelines are designed to assess the Township’s ability for its budget to serve as a policy, financial planning, operations, and communications device.  The Township’s budget features financial analysis and contextual information, making it clear to staff and the community at large how funds are being earned and disbursed, and why.
 
The Township is also an 19-time winner of the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program. The Township is one of less than 70 municipalities in Pennsylvania to win this award.

Middletown Township is receiving this award for the fifth consecutive year in a row. The 2024 Budget will be prepared in accordance with GFOA's criteria and will be submitted upon final adoption by the Board of Supervisors in December.
