Junk removal in New Egypt
New Egypt isn't a town of its own. It's an unincorporated community in Plumsted Township, Ocean County, close to where Burlington, Monmouth and Ocean counties meet, and the township's Municipal Building uses a New Egypt address on Evergreen Road. Oakford Lake sits in the middle of town, the New Egypt Speedway is a clay race track, and the township has named the horse its official animal. Plumsted has about 8,000 people spread over nearly 40 square miles, and with that much room, sheds, garages and barns tend to fill up.
Trash works differently here. Plumsted doesn't pick up trash itself, so residents arrange their own service, and those who sign up through the Plumsted MUA's contract get curbside bulk pickup once a month, as long as the items fit within a 4-by-4-by-4-foot area. Brush, tires, electronics and landscape rock aren't taken, and washers and dryers can go to the township recycling center instead. When the pile is bigger than that, text photos to (855) 655-7552 for one upfront price. We carry it out, load the truck and sweep up, and most jobs are hauled the same visit.
Good to know in New Egypt
- New Egypt (ZIP 08533) is an unincorporated community and census-designated place within Plumsted Township, so trash, bulk and recycling rules come from Plumsted Township and the Plumsted Municipal Utilities Authority (PMUA), not a separate New Egypt government.
- Plumsted Township doesn't collect household trash itself. Chapter 55 of the township code requires households to contract for private trash collection unless they haul their own trash to the disposal facility, and the PMUA says trash service isn't included in your taxes. The PMUA publicly bids a trash and recycling contract that residents can sign up for, and those customers pay the PMUA directly.
- Under the PMUA's bulk guidelines, bulk items are picked up once a month and can't exceed an area 4 feet high, 4 feet wide and 4 feet long. Mattresses, box springs and toilets must be wrapped in plastic, and refrigerators and freezers aren't taken without certification that the Freon was removed.
- The Township Recycling Center at 2 Cedar Street, next to the Police Station, accepts electronics, metal, light iron, white goods and auto batteries. The PMUA's bulk guidelines say washers, dryers and other household appliances are not bulky waste and can be taken there instead.
- Plumsted Township covers about 39.5 square miles and borders Jackson and Manchester in Ocean County, New Hanover, North Hanover and Pemberton in Burlington County, and Upper Freehold in Monmouth County.
Bulk trash pickup in New Egypt
Plumsted Township, which covers New Egypt, doesn't pick up trash itself. Residents arrange their own private trash service, and the Plumsted MUA publicly bids a contract that residents can sign up for. Under that contract, bulk waste is collected at the curb once a month, on a date set by which section of the township you live in, so check the PMUA's current service calendar. Bulk items can't exceed a 4-by-4-by-4-foot area, and the pickup won't take electronics, tires or vehicle parts, brush, bagged leaves, landscape rock, large pieces of metal, propane tanks or hazardous chemicals and paint. If you use a different hauler, the township says curbside bulk pickup comes from your own trash company, so ask them how it works. Residents can also take bulk waste to the Ocean County Landfill in Manchester for a fee.
