The Bath Township Solid Waste District was organized by the Bath Township Board of Trustees in 1993 with collection starting in the Spring of 1994. The following were goals established by the Township Trustees in the creation of the Bath Township Solid Waste District:

• Placed the Township in compliance with House Bill 592 and provided landfill waste reduction data.

• Provided waste disposal services at a favorable cost compared with present costs.

• Offer recycling opportunities to the residents of Bath Township.

Some of the fringe benefits of the program that were stated when the District was formed were:

• There would be a reduction of heavy truck traffic on township roads;
• A single garbage collection day for most of the neighborhoods; and
• A stepping stone for the offering of yard waste and brush disposal services for those citizens who require or want such services.
