Haworth Senior Van
The Senior Van broke down for the last time on September 1st after 14 years of service and 140,000 miles. It only lasted that long due to the efforts of our DPW. Fortunately, we received a temporary replacement vehicle from Bergen County Senior Services at no cost to the borough.
This vehicle is a four-passenger van with seats for three in the back, one seat in front and a ramp for wheelchair access. When we are transporting a senior in a wheelchair, we will only transport the senior and the aide. We will continue safe practices for COVID-19 conditions. Seniors interested in the service, please click here.
Haworth Senior Van is available five days a week, excluding holidays, 9 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. for doctors appointments, hospital visits, grocery shopping and mall shopping. Have you been taking advantage of it? Just call (201) 385-3577, leave your message on the answering machine and Liz will get back to you.

Do you live alone and do you know about Operation Reassurance? This program is part of the Haworth Police Department. When you sign up for this program, they will give you a number to call each morning before 10:00. If they do not hear from you, they will call you, and if they do not get an answer, they will come to your home to check on you. This is a wonderful program that can give you much security, or reassurance, that someone is looking after you. For more information, call the Police Department at (201) 384-1900.
Useful Reminders
Smoke Detectors
Did you check the batteries in your smoke alarms lately? Remember, the Haworth Fire Department will gladly help you if you need to replace your batteries. You also need to have carbon monoxide detectors in your home located within ten feet from any sleeping areas. If you need further information on this, contact Margaret at the Borough Hall (201) 384-4785 and she’ll gladly mail you a copy of the regulations.
