In NJ, garbage haulers can operate during specific hours. What those hours are depends on two things:
1) The tariffs issued by the State and County
2) Requirements of municipal ordinance
The Teaneck Municipal Code does not currently contain any restrictions on when haulers may operate, so the times default to tariff schedules. Those times are listed below for the various haulers in Teaneck.
As you will see, some haulers (Armaniaco & Son, LLC, Generation Waste Services, Inc., Ippolito Industries, Inc., Interstate Waste Services of NJ, and Waste Management of NJ) can operate around the clock, 24/7. For many, that means loud disruptions at 4am or sometimes even earlier.
The council will be taking up garbage collection hours in our May meeting. The proposal will limit hauling hours to a minimum of 5am. Several weeks ago, we also reached out to all sanitation companies requesting comment as to whether the proposed change will affect their ability to operate and / or cause an increase in prices.
As of today, we have not received a response.
The current version of Ordinance 11-2019 can be found here: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING AND SUPPLEMENTING CHAPTER 19 OF THE TOWNSHIP CODE ENTITLED “GARBAGE AND REFUSE” RESPECTING HOURS OF COLLECTION
TL;DR I’ve requested the current times of operation of various haulers in town ad we plan to curtail excessively early runs. The information is now available below:
The manager sent out letters to all haulers and pending comment from the several haulers that operate 24/7 throughout the Township, I hope to introduce the ordinance at our May meeting.
