Website Makes Reporting Issues Easier for Collingswood Residents

Collingswood, NJ -- Collingswood is making it easier for residents to report municipal issues to departments by offering a ‘residential self service’ program on Collingswood.com, officials said.

The new system allows residents to report non-emergency issues like animal concerns, brush pickup, clogged storm drains, electronics recycling, grass concerns, hanging limbs, leaf pickup, parks and playground issues, potholes, recycling, snow removal, street lighting, street sign issues and stump removal.

Those that submit an issue receive notification when their job has been received and confirmation when completed. The service can be accessed here.

“Feedback from residents on issues is key to keeping things running smoothly,” Collingswood Commissioner Mike Hall said. “This streamlines the process of contacting departments with concerns and gets info directly to officials that can solve the problem. It also lets residents know their issue is being addressed.”

In the case of emergency always call 911 immediately. To contact the police department’s non-emergency line call 856-854-1900. Overnight parking must be called in directly to 856-854-1901 x590.

Official documents must still come through Collingswood’s Clerk Holly Mannel. She can be reached at hmannel@collingswood.com or 856-854-0720 x127.

Contact the borough’s water department for water issues at 856-854-2332.

Permits, taxes and certain other tasks must be handled at Collingswood Borough Hall, 678 Haddon Avenue.
