Press release from the Warminster Township:

2021-06-24

JP Mascaro has alerted the Township that they have experienced a labor shortage that is disrupting their regular collection schedule.

In an effort to minimize frustration among our residents and help our residents better plan for when a truck misses its route, they have indicated they will follow the priority schedule noted below:

JP Mascaro’s Priority Plan:
• PRIORITY #1: Picking up HOUSEHOLD TRASH. Our intent is that your household trash will be collected on its regularly scheduled day. If for any reason your residents’ trash is not collected, they should be told to leave the trash at the curb and we will collect it the next day (i.e., if your trash day is Monday and your trash is not collected, it will be collected on Tuesday)

• PRIORITY #1:

• PRIORITY #2: Picking up HOUSEHOLD RECYCLABLES. Our intent is that  your recyclables will be collected on your regularly scheduled day. If for any reason your residents’ recyclables are not collected, they should be told to leave the recyclables at the curb and we will get them the very next day (i.e., if your collection day is Monday and your recyclables are no collected, they will be
collected on Tuesday).

• PRIORITY #2:

• PRIORITY #3: YARD WASTE collection. Our intent is that your yard waste will be collected on your regularly scheduled day. If for any reason your residents’ yard waste is not collected, they should be told to leave the yard waste at the curb and we will collect it by the end of the week.

• PRIORITY #3:

If your trash is not collected on its scheduled day, please call: 1-800-432-1616

J.P. Mascaro has been in continual contact with the township and have indicated that they are working diligently to address the labor issue they are experiencing. They have expressed a strong desire to get back on the regular schedule and thanked our residents for their patience as they work through this challenging time. We very much appreciate their efforts to address this issue and have encouraged them to make every effort possible to meet the normal trash schedule for our residents.
