Public Works

West Whiteland Township is responsible for the sanitary sewer mains, which proceed down the middle of most streets in the Township, as well as, the sewer lateral which runs from the sewer main back to the approximate edge of paving.

Should you have a sewage blockage with sewer coming out of your vent in your front or back lawn, kindly call the Township offices 610-363-9525 and ask for Jim Mahlon. We will gladly, at no fee, come out and try to plunge the blockage. At that point, we will also check to make sure the blockage is not in our sanitary sewer line. If it is in the Township’s sewer line (mains or lateral) we will have the blockage cleared. If the blockage is beyond the edge of paving (i.e. on your lawn) and we cannot clear the blockage it will be up to you, the property owner, to contract with a Registered Master Plumber to have it cleared.
