Ocean County operates the Ocean County Landfill in Manchester and coordinates recycling through the Ocean County Recycling Department. Trash pickup varies by municipality — Toms River, Brick, and Jackson use contracted private haulers (Republic Services, Waste Management). LBI boroughs run twice-weekly summer pickup with stepped-down winter schedules. Barnegat Bay shore towns must comply with stricter litter rules to prevent plastic entering the bay.
Solid waste collection in Ocean County operates under the NJ Solid Waste Management Act (N.J.S.A. 13:1E) and the Ocean County Solid Waste Management Plan. Ocean County Landfill Corporation at 601 New Hampshire Avenue, Manchester, is the primary disposal facility. Ocean County Recycling Department at 379 Haywood Road, Lakewood, handles single-stream recycling. Municipal pickup schedules: Toms River operates weekly trash via contracted hauler, Brick runs weekly pickup with designated days per zone, Jackson uses private haulers, Lakewood coordinates with the private sector. LBI boroughs (Surf City, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Township, Beach Haven, Harvey Cedars, Barnegat Light) increase to twice-weekly summer pickup from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Bins must be curbside by 6 AM on collection day. Holiday delays (per Ocean County Landfill observed holidays) shift schedules by one day. Contaminated recycling may be rejected at the curb.
