Duncannon and Penn Twp. Recycling Rules 

The following rules and regulations have been provided by Duncannon Boy Scout Troop 64. The rules are designed to provide a recycling center for the residents of the Duncannon Borough and Penn Township. The goal is to provide a safe, clean, and efficient means for people to recycle. 

1. The Recycling center will be operated by Duncannon Boy Scout Troop 64. |
2. The Recycling Center will be open the 2nd Saturday of the month. 
3. The Recycling Center hours of operation will be set by Troop 64. The hours will be from 8 AM until 11 AM. If there is a need for recycling center hours to be extended, the Troop Committee and related municipalities will discuss options. 
4. Troop 64 will continue the curb side pick up of recyclables and honor their commitment to the Duncannon Borough. Borough residents can and will be encouraged to use the center as a drop off site at the designated open times. 
5. The type of materials collected and accepted at the recycling center will be determined by Troop 64 and the Perry County Recycling program. 
6. All materials collected and dropped off must be separated and cleaned. 
7. All dropped off recyclables must not produce any extra non recyclable items labeled as garbage. This would include materials not recyclable, caps, bags, or any other container that the materials are delivered in. The Troop will encourage residents to bring materials in a container in which they can reuse. (Bucket, Box, ECT.) All containers used to haul recyclables to the drop off center need to go back home with the concept of keeping trash to a minimum. 
8. The Scouts have the right to reject any or all materials that do not meet these requirements. This is for the Safety of the Scouts and volunteers.
