No Trash or Recycling Collections on Monday, January 2; Regular Hours and Collections on New Year’s Eve

Baltimore County residents whose trash would normally have been collected on Monday, January 2 should set it out on Monday night to be collected on Tuesday, January 3.

Residents whose single stream recycling collection normally would have occurred on January 2 are asked to hold those recyclables until the next scheduled day for those items, Monday, January 9, or take them to one of the County’s three drop-off centers.

Collections of all types may occur later than usual during the first week of January, because more material must be collected in fewer collection days. If a collection does not occur on the scheduled day during this period of time, the materials should be left out until collection occurs.

All trash and recycling drop-off facilities (including the Eastern Sanitary Landfill) and County offices will be closed on Monday, January 2. Drop-off facilities will be open with normal operating hours on Saturday, December 31 (New Year’s Eve).

Residents can visit the Bureau of Solid Waste Management website or call 410-887-2000 for more information about recycling and trash collection, including drop-off center locations and hours.
