Your West Deptford pooper scooper
Dog poop pickup on West Deptford's streets.
West Deptford sits between two creeks and a river: Big Timber Creek to the north, Mantua Creek to the south and the Delaware along its western edge, with Philadelphia across the water. It's a township of about 22,000 people, a few miles from Pitman, on our Gloucester County routes alongside Woodbury, Westville and Deptford.
West Deptford doesn't have a public dog park, so local dogs live their best lives in the backyard and on leashed walks at West Deptford Park and RiverWinds. Your scooper texts on the way, walks the whole yard, double-bags every pile into your trash can and latches the gate, so the yard stays ready for them.

West Deptford's pick-up rules.
Curb your dog
Anyone in charge of a dog must immediately remove its waste from sidewalks, parks, public property and other people's property, and dispose of it in a sealed, leakproof container (Code §82-14D). Fines are $10, then $20, then $50.
Leashes
On streets and in public places, a dog must be with someone over 12, on a leash no longer than 6 feet.
Parks
Leashed dogs only, owners clean up, and dogs stay out of areas posted "Domestic Animals Prohibited" (Code §118-2).
Licenses and county parks
Dogs over six months need a license ($10 spayed or neutered, $16 otherwise), renewed every January, and the township holds a free rabies clinic every spring. Gloucester County parks, including Red Bank Battlefield, don't allow pets.
Why it matters here
West Deptford drains to the Delaware through Woodbury Creek, Big Timber Creek and, on the south side, Mantua Creek. On the state's 2014 impaired-waters list, lower Mantua Creek was listed for E. coli, and the township's own 2018 environmental inventory names animal waste, including from pets, as a source of fecal bacteria. West Deptford's fines are among the lowest around, starting at $10, but the creeks don't care about the fine. A weekly scoop keeps it out of them.

It’s been a pleasure to deal with everyone at the company.”

Do you service my town?
We scoop in 140+ towns across Essex, Morris, Union, Passaic, Somerset and Middlesex Counties in North Jersey, Monmouth County at the Shore, and Gloucester, Camden, Burlington, Atlantic and Salem Counties in South Jersey. Our routes keep growing, so if you're nearby and don't see your town listed, ask. We'll tell you straight whether we can fit you in.
Do I need to be home?
No. As long as we have safe access to your yard, you don't need to be home while we clean up.
What happens if it rains or snows?
We work through most weather, including light rain. If severe weather, snow, flooding or lightning makes it unsafe, your visit may be skipped. Because the next cleanup usually takes much longer, your regular rate still applies. If you clean the yard yourself before we're back, let us know and we'll gladly credit that visit.
What do you do with the waste?
We securely double-bag it and place it in your trash can, so it leaves with your regular garbage pickup.
