The Village of West Haverstraw has announced the rollout of brand-new garbage and recycling pails for residents, with distribution set to begin Tuesday, February 17, 2026.
According to the Village, the new bins will be delivered directly to homes starting next week. Residents are advised that collection using the new pails will officially begin on Monday, February 23, 2026, coinciding with the launch of the Village’s new sidearm garbage truck.
The new truck, prominently marked “Village of West Haverstraw” in bright lettering, is designed to work with the updated bins to improve efficiency and streamline sanitation services throughout the community.
Each new bin will include an educational pamphlet outlining proper usage guidelines, along with this year’s garbage collection calendar to help residents stay informed about pickup schedules.
Village officials encourage residents to keep an eye out for the new pails and truck in the coming days. Anyone with questions can contact the Village at 845-947-2800 or visit www.westhaverstraw.gov for additional information.
