Some improvements include increasing access and efficiency to the recycling drop-off bins, improving traffic circulation, allowing room for the expansion of recyclable commodities in the future, and ensuring ADA compliance to both the Middletown Recycling Center and Administrative Building.
Please note that the Recycling Center will be closed on Monday, September 5th in observance of Labor Day.

MTPD Invites Community to Support PBA Local 124's 2nd Annual 9/11 Memorial 5K Run on Saturday, 9/10
|
|
|
|
|
Proceeds from the 5K will go to a scholarship fund created in memory of Middletown Township Police Department (MTPD) Detective Lieutenant Joseph Capriotti. As "keeper of the list" of the 37 Township residents we tragically lost on 9/11, Capriotti personally notified every single Middletown family who lost a loved one that day. As a result of his response to Ground Zero, he developed cancer and lost his battle in June 2019. The memorial scholarship fund was created as a way to pay tribute to the tremendous impact he has made to the families of the victims and to our community.
Registration is $30 for the 5K Run + Walk and $10 for the Kids' Race. Prices will increase on Friday, September 9th.Click HERE to register and for information about how you and/or your company can sponsor this event!
