PMUA has placed Salvation Army donation boxes at its PERC Transfer Station located at 95 Rock Avenue encouraging the reusing and recycling of goods, as well as providing an additional convenient drop-off location for Salvation Army collections.

Helping Hands Gloves Drive 2017

PMUA employees generously donated gloves to keep Plainfield children warm this winter. During the week of December 18th through December 31st gloves were distributed to those who visited our Front Street location.

PMUA recently held an assembly for 400 students at Clinton Elementary School where scholars learned the definition of separation and how that relates to our trash. Students were taught why they must separate recyclables and how easy it is to do just that by thinking before tossing.

The presentation was concluded with the PMUA created trash game, “Are you are recyclable?” 30 students were chosen, each was given a material and they had to line up next to the can that they thought the material should be discarded into. Visually this is very impactful because at the end of the game 25 students line up next to the blue cart and only five were next to the black cart. This clearly shows how much more trash should be recycled and separated.
