ABOUT BULKY PICK UP

  • Residents living in single family dwellings may call the Public Works Department at 301.577.1008, Monday - Friday between the hours of 7:00 A.M. to 3:30 P.M. to schedule bulky trash pick up. Residents in multi - family dwellings should call their respective manager's or leasing office to their apartment/condo complex so they, in turn may notify the Public Works Department to arrange for special bulky trash pick up.
  • Items that qualify for special bulky collection include white goods (washers, dryers, refrigerators, dishwashers, freezers, etc.), tires (off the rim), dried out paint (no wet paint), electronics and furniture of all types. Lumber, pipes, and metal will also be collected, provided they have been cut into four foot (4') lengths and are the result of the homeowner or occupant performing the work on the property; if any work is generated by a contractor or a second party, they are responsible for the proper disposal of all construction debris. All scheduled special bulky items must be placed on the curb Tuesday, after 5:00 P.M.
