WOODBRIDGE GARBAGE
COLLECTION PLANS MADE

WOODBRIDGE,
Feb. 5:- The Township Committee at its meeting last night mapped out and approved the various garbage districts of the township in connection with the municipal collection system of refuse acted upon by the committeemen recently.

The first district will comprise the entire first ward of the township. District No. 2 will comprise Fords and Hopelawn. Keasbey will take in District No. 3. Avenel Heights will be known as District No. 4, with Port Reading as District No. 5. The sixth district takes in the Steinberg tract, which adjoins Carteret.

The committeemen agreed upon that the collection will be made once a week. During the summer months, June, July and August, a bi-weekly collection will be made, because of the large influx of refuse accumulating during the hot weather days.
