Selinsgrove Borough is mandated by Act 101 of the State of Pennsylvania to require its residential, commercial, municipal, and institutional establishments to recycle items. A recycling fee is included with your quarterly water/sewer bill to support the Recycling Program and the Annual Spring Clean-Up. The Selinsgrove Borough Recycling program and its equipment are partially funded by PA DEP ACT 101-902 and 904 recycling grants. We encourage all Selinsgrove Borough residents to fully utilize these services.
