Composting in Hamilton
Hamilton Township covers many distinct neighborhoods, from dense residential streets near Trenton to less compact areas farther east. A household pickup route gives residents one consistent way to handle food scraps across those different settings.
Hamilton publishes its own garbage guidance and directs residents to Mercer County resources for curbside recycling. The township also provides a food-waste handout that explains why source reduction, donation, and composting are preferable to disposal.
Use Hamilton’s municipal pages for trash and recycling questions, and keep food scraps in the separate Torus bucket. Mercerville residents should enter their full street address because postal place names do not always match township service boundaries.
