Park Hill Residents' Association

PHRA POLL - Give us your feedback

Recently, with input from the Park Hill Residents' Association and its residents, the City of Yonkers installed speed humps on Rumsey Road. This was done to curtail speeding. Please choose the option that best describes how you feel about the speed humps:

Yonkers Sanitation Pick Up

Due to budget cuts trash collection has been reduced to one day per week. That day will be Monday in Park Hill.

Trash will no longer be picked up on Thursdays.

Recycling will remain as is, on Wednesdays, alternating weeks for paper and commingled.

Recycling collection will resume on Wednesday, July 14th, for paper.

In addition, the city will no longer offer curbside pick-up for all non-metal bulk items. Non-metal bulk items include but are not limited to: mattresses, sofas, tables & chairs, scrap wood, carpeting, toilets, sinks & bathtubs, pools, play sets.

Residents will now have to take these and other non-metal bulk items to the city's Recycling Center, 735 Saw Mill River Road, or arrange to have them privately carted.

Metal Bulk items will still be picked up with an appointment.

Metal Bulk is classified as washers, dryers, refrigerators (doors must be removed), air conditioners (Freon will be removed free of charge by the City of Yonkers at the Recycling Center), bed frames, stoves, metal shelf units, bicycles and hot water heaters. To have these items picked up you must make an appointment by calling 377-(HELP) 4357 or they may be brought to the Recycling Center.

Further information is on the City's website here.
