Winter storms look a little different every time, and so does the work behind the plow.
Our Public Works team makes decisions based on safety, timing, and conditions — not just inches of snow.
A few small choices from residents (like parking in driveways or waiting for a plow before shoveling) can make a big difference in how quickly neighborhoods get cleared.
Thanks for working with us, Bordentown. It takes real teamwork to keep our roads safe.
Bordentown, your firefighters are helping fill Santa’s sleigh this season!
Bordentown Professional Firefighters FMBA Local 112 are collecting new, unwrapped Toys for Tots donations through December 10.

📍 262 Crosswicks Rd
📍 51 Groveville Rd
Plus, you’ll find collection boxes at local partners like Chickie’s & Pete’s, The Goddard School, Tractor Supply Co., Town Barbershop, and the Village Grand at Crosswicks Creek.

How will you know if something’s happening in town?
Bordentown Township uses Nixle Alerts to share verified updates — from weather warnings and road closures to true emergencies. It’s how we keep residents informed quickly, clearly, and without unnecessary alarm.
At times, you may also receive alerts directly from County or State agencies when they’re leading the response. Those come from them — not from us — but they’re just as important to stay informed.
We appreciate your trust in allowing us to determine what truly warrants an alert. Each message is shared with care — to inform, not overwhelm.
