Curbside collection schedules and rules are set by each Camden County municipality. The county's Pollution Control Financing Authority handles disposal at the Pennsauken landfill, while towns arrange the actual pickups.
In Camden County, trash and recycling collection is organized by each municipality, which either provides pickup directly or contracts a hauler. The Pollution Control Financing Authority of Camden County (PCFACC) operates the county solid-waste system, including the Pennsauken Sanitary Landfill, under the county district solid-waste management plan required by N.J.S.A. 13:1E. Countywide recycling coordination runs through the Camden County Division of Environmental Affairs and each town's certified recycling coordinator. Your collection days, container rules, and set-out times come from your municipality, not the county. Rental trucks are not accepted at PCFACC disposal facilities.
Missed-collection and improper set-out penalties are set by municipal ordinance and the hauler contract.
