Monroe Township Department of Public Works Recycling Center Introduces: Center for Hard to Recycle Materials (CHaRM)  

We are excited to unveil our latest initiative made possible by the Middlesex County Recycling Enhancement Grant (REG): the CHaRM - Center for Hard to Recycle Materials. This new facility represents a significant step forward in our commitment to environmental sustainability and recycling.

The CHaRM will provide a convenient and dedicated space for residents to recycle items that aren’t typically collected through curbside recycling. Our new center will handle the collection of the following items: 

  • Books
  • cell phones
  • plastic/stretch bags
  • light bulbs
  • single use/lithium/rechargeable batteries
  • small appliances
  • eyeglasses


PLEASE NOTE: These materials may change based on the demand and the capabilities of our partner organizations. Please check https://www.monroetwp.com/index.php/departments/public-works-recycling for a current list of acceptable items. 


Here’s what you need to know:

  • Location: The CHaRM building is located at the DPW Recycling facility – 76 Gravel Hill Spotswood Road.
  • Drop-Off Station: Located outside the CHaRM building, the drop-off station will feature a list of currently accepted materials and additional information can be found on our website.
  • Inside the Facility: Several bins will be set up for different materials, each clearly labeled as a guide for DPW employees to sort the recyclables.
  • Stay Informed: Check our website for the most up-to-date information on what materials are being accepted and any changes to our collection process.


This initiative is supported by our Green Team and Environmental Commission and will contribute to our Sustainable NJ certification. We’re proud to offer this new resource and appreciate your support in making our community greener and more sustainable.


We invite you to visit the CHaRM and take advantage of this new recycling opportunity. Thank you for helping us make a positive impact on our environment!
