Mar 16, 2026·1 min read

As many residents begin their annual pre-Passover and spring cleaning, the Lakewood Department of Public Works (DPW) has announced extended hours for the township’s main bulk trash drop-off site.

The site, located at 1 America Avenue near the intersection of Cedar Bridge and New Hampshire Avenues, will operate on an expanded schedule beginning Monday, March 16 through Monday, March 30. During that period, residents will be able to drop off bulk trash Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m.

The township also announced a special extended window at the end of the month. Beginning Tuesday, March 31, the drop-off location will remain open overnight and continue operating until Wednesday, April 1 at 3:00 p.m.

The facility accepts most forms of bulk trash, including wood, metal, electronics, and similar materials. However, construction materials, paint, and other hazardous items are not permitted at the site.

Township officials said additional details regarding seasonal sanitation services will be released in the coming weeks. Those announcements are expected to include information about additional temporary trash drop-off locations, expanded trash pickup runs, and designated biur chometz sites.
