Franklin Township is proud to encourage recycling in our community. Not only does recycling help the environment, it pays! Recycling generates saving by reducing the amounts of trash we dispose of. Franklin Township is now a co-mingling community. All plastic, metal and glass may be mixed together in the same container. The Department of Public Works provides containers and they can be picked up at our office.
