Residents who receive County-contracted waste and recycling collection service are advised that some areas may still require additional roadway clearance to allow safe access for collection crews and haulers.

If you reside in a municipality or receive service from private waste haulers, you should contact your respective offices directly for guidance on winter weather collection tips and schedules.
For the latest service updates and alerts, residents are encouraged to visit mypgc.us and sign up for Alert Prince George's at alert.mypgc.us to receive weather and emergency notifications by text, phone, or email.
