1. How do I obtain a building permit?

View the Building Permit (PDF) for the Building Permit Application Form. You need a building permit for a shed. Even for the prefabricated ones from Sears.

2. Do I need a burning permit?

The answer is, “yes, you do!”  You’re not permitted to burn trash and recyclables, but for items like large tree limbs, you’ll need a burning permit. The cost is $5 for 5 years. Complete the Burning Permit (PDF) and return to us by mail, or bring it to our office at 4100 Sardis Road, Murrysvile, Pa 15668. . By the way, open burning is permitted Tuesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and we recommend standing by with the garden hose for safety purposes.

5. I need to speak with Comcast, the cable company. Your number is listed on my bill. How do I get in touch with Comcast?

7. When does the recycling guy collect my recycling?

First of all, ensure that you have your recycling (and trash) at the curb prior to 6 a.m. on collection day, because the driver cannot return to your house if you don’t have it at the curb in time. To view your recycling schedule please visit Republic Services website, all you need to provide is your address.
