Composting in Franklin
Franklin Township spans numerous neighborhoods and mailing areas in southeastern Somerset County. A route-based service can reach only certain streets at a time, so residents should not confuse the township page with a guarantee of pickup everywhere in Franklin.
Franklin’s Convenience Center accepts listed recyclables and residential materials but explicitly excludes food waste. That distinction makes source separation important: kitchen scraps need composting, digestion, or another organics program rather than a trip to the center.
Use the township facility only for its published accepted materials. If Torus confirms your home, keep the sealed food-scrap bucket apart from trash and recycling, and follow any route-specific placement message sent after enrollment.
