ATTN Chassell Township Residents-NEW Garbage System!
Saturday, January 3rd, 2026 we will only be using the new Pay As You Throw (PAYT) bags. No cash will be accepted unless you purchase the new bags. Recycling rates will increase from $10 to $13 per 2.2 bushel basket. Punch cards can be purchased for $130 for recycling.
Why are we going to a PAYT system?
– Fairness – People who produce less trash, like seniors or those who compost and recycle well, will pay less.
– Encourages good habits – PAYT incentivizes recycling and composting, reducing the overall waste stream.
– Protects taxpayers – As tipping/disposal fees rise, PAYT helps the town control costs and avoid tax increases.
Bags will be available for purchase at: Township Office, Chassell General Store and DPW.
They come in 2 sizes:
33 gal with wave top-10 bags for $40 (Purple)
15 gal with drawstring-5 bags for $10 (Green)
