How disposal works in Maryland
In Maryland, the county decides where you dump and what it costs, and almost every site is for county residents only: bring a driver's license or other proof of residency. Many counties let residents drop household trash free: Baltimore County (up to 10 visits a year), Baltimore City, Anne Arundel County and Howard County (up to 2 tons a year).
Others charge a flat price by the vehicle instead of weighing it: $5 for a carload in Charles County, $8 in Harford and Carroll counties, and $11 to $15 for a pickup. Trailers, dump trucks and box trucks are usually weighed and charged by the ton, and some drop-off centers don't take them at all.
We're writing Maryland up county by county — 10 are live, with more on the way, and our guide to what it costs to dump in Maryland puts their rates side by side. Maryland's state environment department no longer publishes a statewide facility list, so the finder shows the sites in the counties we've covered.
