Bristol Township recently signed a new five-year municipal waste contract with Waste Management. The $34.58 million contract is more than 40% higher than the $24 million paid by the township under the last deal approved over five years ago. The new contract will keep once-per-week trash and recycling pick-up, reduce bulk pickup to once per month, keep yard waste pickup during the same periods, and move to having township crews collect trash from parks. The new terms begin in January 2024. In 2022, Bristol Township households paid $340 per year for waste hauling. It is expected that the township will announce new trash rates during upcoming budget preparations.
