The Department of the Environment (DoE) will continue to provide trash, recycling, and yard trim collection services on schedule.
Curbside Collection	Residents must place containers curbside by 6 a.m. on the day of collection. Collections begin as early as 6 a.m. and continue until 8 p.m. TRASH All trash must be tied and bagged securely. Latex paint is NOT hazardous and should NOT be delivered to the Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) site. Learn how to dispose of properly by clicking here. RECYCLING Plastic bags are NOT accepted. Place recyclables loose and un-bagged in your recycling cart or bin. The County provides single-stream recycling, which means items should be placed in the same container, without the need to sort or separate. Overflow of recyclables can be placed on any receptacle or cardboard box marked with an X or the word “Recycling." Cardboard boxes will be collected with contents. YARD TRIM Residents who have County-provided collections should continue to place their yard trim at the curb by 6 a.m. on Mondays for regular collections. Residents who do not have curbside collection, may drop-off yard trim at the County’s Convenience Drop-off Centers during regular hours of operation, free of charge.
Convenience Centers	Residents who do not have County-provided curbside collection should use the Residential Convenience Drop-Off Centers for disposal of regular household bagged trash and un-bagged recyclables.
Bulky Trash	Curbside bulky trash collections have resumed. Appointments may be scheduled by visiting bulkytrash.princegeorgescountymd.gov or by contacting 311.
