Talking Trash at 22 May 2023 Meet Mack Monday

Mack's Newtown Voice

Participants in the 22 May 2023 Meet Mack Monday Zoom meeting talked trash. It began with a seemingly simple question: "Should Newtown Township contract with one trash company for savings, efficiency, less noise and pollution?" It quickly moved on to how some homeowners associations have taken matters into their own hands to reduce costs and reduce noise and other pollution by hiring a single source for trash collection. Left unanswered, however, was the question about whether it would be a good idea for the township to sign a contract with a single trash company to collect all the trash.
