New Compost Hours

New Compost Hours:
Weekdays (excluding holidays) from 7:30AM—3:00PM
1st and 3rd Saturday (excluding holidays) from 8:00AM—NOON

This change is necessary to help prevent illegal dumping by non-residents. Violations of illegal dumping at the compost site have increased, which is increasing the fees to grind the debris dropped off; fees which are paid by Selinsgrove Borough residents. Any recycling/compostable debris brought to a Selinsgrove Borough collection facility is only allowed from Selinsgrove Borough residences and Selinsgrove Borough businesses. For those who own property in Selinsgrove Borough but do not LIVE in Selinsgrove Borough, your composting from the outside municipality should remain in that municipality.
