Any questions may be directed to Acting Public Works Director Lester Myers at 397-2230 or City Hall at 397-0110.

PUT A LID ON IT:  The City of Lambertville adopted an Ordinance requiring lids on all garbage and recycling cans. This will help to prevent the liquid build up from spilling onto the street. Help us keep our community clean! Thank you!

SINGLE STREAM RECYCLING: We ask that you mark your recycling containers and garbage cans so that it is easy for our Public Works Department to collect and prevents recycling from going into the trash.  Please do not place your recyclables in plastic bags.  Recycling volume is not limited. 

Third Can: If you are interested in signing up for the Third Can Recycling Program, please complete the form: Third Can Program and submit your check in the amount of $45! The program is slated to begin on March 1st and is limited to the first 100 residents who sign up.
