Triangle Park
Triangle Park construction is well underway; construction is anticipated to complete the week prior to July 4th if the weather holds out and allows for work to continue on track. We appreciate everyone’s patience and support at this time!
As a reminder, Waverly Terrace between Swarthmore and Rutledge avenues has been changed to a one way street, traveling into the borough. Signage and line markings will be placed later this year.
Sanitation Committee
Next Yard Waste is Friday 20th
Yard Waste Scheduled for July 4th week will take place Monday, July 7th to allow everyone to enjoy their holiday weekend.
Double yard waste collections have begun! Collections will be First and Third Fridays through November. Please be sure to properly prepare your yard waste in a way that is collectible by the haulers. Use your toters, personal cans, paper bags, or tie with twine. Yard waste on tarps or in plastic bags is not acceptable due to difficulty to lift.
We are disappointed to announce our next E Waste was cancelled due to weather and our provider is now unable to reschedule for the planned rain date. We are working to find a new date.
If you have a large item that needs to be removed from your property, RecycleRight will come to your home for a small fee of $30 to pick up the item as long as it is driveway accessible. Contact RecycleRight at 610-803-2684 or recycle...@yahoo.com
Save the date: A textile and bicycle/sewing machine recycling event is scheduled for 10/18/2025 at Rose Tree Park. More details to follow.

The Streets Committee is working to compile road work needs for the Borough of Rutledge; if you notice any potholes or concerns to highlight for the borough roads, please send them to andreaju...@gmail.com and rutledg...@gmail.com
