Holiday Waste Collection Schedule
Prince George’s County residents receiving County-contracted curbside food scraps and yard trim, bulky trash, regular trash, and recycling collection will NOT receive services unless otherwise noted on the holidays listed below.
Please note that scheduled bulky trash collection for white goods, appliances, scrap tires, electronics recycling, and scrap metal is made by appointment only by contacting PGC311 and occurs on a different pickup schedule than regular curbside bulky trash collection.
If you live in a municipality, your waste collection holiday schedule may differ from the County schedule.
Verify whether your address receives County-provided waste collection services.
All items to be collected must be out at the curb by 6 a.m. on your collection day or by 5 a.m. from July 15 through September 30.
For more information on collection services, contact PGC311.
Here's an overview of the County's holiday waste collection schedule.
