UPDATE ON THE TEMPORARY
YARD WASTE FACILITY
Rapho Township is pleased to announce that the Mount Joy Borough/ East Donegal Township Compost Site, 200 S. Jacob St, Mount Joy has graciously agreed to allow our residents with woody yard waste key fobs to utilize their woody yard waste facility while Rapho Township’s Facility is unavailable. The hours are dawn to dusk 7 days a week. We have been able to enter all but 50 Rapho Township’s residents’ key fob credentials into the Mount Joy system for seamless access. Those residents whose credentials could not be entered have been contacted by Rapho Township Staff to obtain a new credential.
We recommend Rapho Residents with key fobs make their first visit to the Mount Joy Borough compost site location during Rapho Township office hours of 8:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and call 717-665-3827 if they have difficulty accessing the yard.
We thank Mount Joy Borough for their generosity in allowing our residents to access this site and Rapho Township staff for their tireless data entry to make this process as easy as possible for our residents.
