eWaste Collection!
Our latest E-waste collection went great. Recycle Right stated we had over 1,700 lbs of recycled material!
We are hoping to hold another after the summer. Please consider holding onto your appliances (see flier) and scrap metal (some items collected were an old fence, wheelbarrow, etc.) for the next collection.
Complete this Rutledge Borough Survey to show interest for a second event in the fall (post Yard sale) that will also accept TVs.
We need 20-25 people minimum to justify the costs to the borough.
Deadline for REAL ID is May 7th, 2025
In May 2025, Pennsylvanians will need a REAL ID in order to board domestic flights or enter federal buildings or military bases that require ID. REAL IDs require difference documents to obtain and we recommend reviewing the process now to ensure you are able to obtain one before the REAL ID deadline on May 7th, 2025.
For more information on REAL ID in Pennsylvania, visit PennDOT.pa.gov/REALID. For REAL ID information from the Department of Homeland Security, visit dhs.gov/real-id.
