Christmas Tree Collection
Republic Services will collect Christmas trees on your second pickup day of the week during the entire month of January. Any trees over 6-feet tall must be cut in half.
It is that time of year again when Eastern Salisbury Fire Department is happy to announce that our annual Santa Run will take place on December 19th, starting at 9:30 AM.
This year the Santa Run will be parade style as we did last year. The route and stops are available here.
Our mission is to provide everyone in Eastern Salisbury a chance to see Santa, we ask you to help us by finding the closest Santa stop to come out an visit us along the route. We will be handing out candy canes, dog treats, and stopping along the route for photos.
We appreciate the citizens participation in coming out to the closest Santa stop to celebrate the holidays.
If there are any questions, please feel free to message us on Facebook or email us at Events@easternsalisbury.org.

RE: Collection of Delinquent Accounts
In an effort to maximize the collection of its unpaid water, sewer, refuse and abatement of nuisance fee accounts, Salisbury Township has hired the law firm of Portnoff Law Associates, Ltd. to collect its delinquent accounts starting in the first quarter of 2022. Representing over 170 municipal clients across Pennsylvania, Portnoff utilizes state law that allows for the costs of collection to be imposed upon the delinquent property owner, creating immediate incentive to make payment and reducing the burden of administrative time and collection costs on the Township and its residents.
Each delinquent property owner will receive a notice setting forth federal and state rights with respect to debt collection, followed by a notice enclosing a schedule of legal fees that Portnoff Law Associates will potentially assess against the property if the property owner fails to respond to the notice. Recipients of the latter notice will be afforded a 30-day grace period within which to make payment arrangements. Property owners with large balances will be permitted to enter into payment arrangements of up to six months, and a hardship program allowing longer payment terms will be available to owner-occupants experiencing financial difficulties.
After the grace period ends, Portnoff Law Associates will proceed with legal action on the unresolved accounts. Delinquent property owners who have failed to make payment arrangements or request hardship accommodations will be assessed the legal fees and costs associated with the collection of their accounts.
We urge property owners who have not yet paid their delinquent water, sewer, refuse and abatement of nuisance fee accounts to make payment immediately, or contact Portnoff Law Associates promptly upon receipt of the notices to avoid additional charges.
