Other notes
- Bulk-item and special-material center, not an unrestricted bagged-household-trash dump. No construction materials, wooden pallets or electronics.
- Accepts listed cardboard, mail/magazines/office paper (no newsprint), qualifying scrap metal (no cans/foil), propane containers, yard waste and specified other materials. Read full official fee sheet before loading unusual items.
- Current February 2026 fee sheet supersedes the older 2024 sheet, which has lower appliance/bulk fees. Do not rely on the old prices.
- Tire-on-rim surcharge and fluorescent-lamp units are ambiguous in the official table. Mounted-tire and lamp totals are not calculated here; call to confirm.
- Fee sheet names both township-resident-only access and contractor yard-waste prices. A listed contractor rate is not treated here as general commercial access permission.
- Electronics are referred to the separate Dauphin County Recycling Center.
