Composting

For information on the leaf and yard waste program in your community, contact your municipal building. For information on backyard composting, contact the Bucks County Recycling Coordinator at 215-345-3400.

How to Dispose of Latex Paint

To dispose of latex paint cans, leave the tops off and let paint harden. Crack the hardened paint and throw out with regular trash. Replace lids on the cans and put out with recyclable. If it takes too long to allow the paint to harden, simply mix the paint with about four cups of an absorbent such as clay-based kitty litter. After the paint is no longer liquid, wrap it in newspaper and throw out with regular trash. For Oil-based paint, see "Hazardous Household Waste" below.

Hazardous Household Waste and Old Computers

Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collections are held throughout the year in Bucks County at various locations. You can obtain a schedule of remaining collection events by calling the PADEP hotline at 1-800-346-4242 or by calling the Bucks County Planning Commission at 215-345-3400.

Air Conditioners, Refrigerators, and Items containing Freon

Air conditioners, refrigerators, and items containing freon cannot be thrown out with other trash. Air conditioners, refrigerators and freezers will be picked up for no additional charge by J.P. Mascaro in Lower and Upper Southampton and Northampton. A pick-up date must be scheduled by calling J.P. Mascaro at 1-800-432-1616. The doors of refrigerators and freezers need to be removed. Waste Automation will remove the main refrigeration unit when a resident schedules an appointment. Residents may also take these appliances to the following locations:
