Saturday hours at the Morris Township recycling center are back. Starting July 2, the center will be open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday, in addition to its normal Monday-Friday schedule.
According to Timothy Quinn, township administrator, "It was eliminated last summer due to budget cuts. We now are able to reinstate it without incurring overtime costs."
Quinn said that, in addition to recyclables, yard waste can also be brought to the center.
