Do NOT let them in your home. The CDC does not go door to door making inspections. If concerned if the people are actual members of a health organization, call 911 or (609) 267-8300 to have an officer respond to your residence.

Until further notice, the Department of Public Works will be on a modified schedule. DPW will pick up clear bags of leaves and grass (no trash, no vines, no sticks) on Mondays and Thursdays. Chipping will be conducted on Wednesdays. Trash and Recycling remain on their regular schedule.
