Recycling
Park’s Garbage Service introduced recycling to Huntingdon County by partnering with Querry’s Sanitation, which Park’s later acquired. The two provided Huntingdon County with a place to drop off trash and recycling.
Now, Park’s Garbage is pleased to partner with Apple Valley Recycling Center to provide top-of-the-line recycling services for residential and commercial customers across South-Central Pennsylvania. Commercial customers are a large part of the recycling program where large volumes of materials, such as paper boxes, cardboard and plastic, are collected and recycled. The state-of-the-art single stream Apple Valley Recycling Center is centrally located to accept recyclable materials from the many Pennsylvania counties that Park’s Garbage serves. Recycling pickup operates on a biweekly schedule, coinciding with your regular trash pickup day. Call Park's Garbage at 814-542-4751 for the Recycling collection day and week that services your area.
