What it takes
Anne Arundel County’s other two multipurpose centers take the same items. The Millersville Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility takes some mattresses, construction debris, and some batteries.
Each item has its own rules. Check before you go.
Anne Arundel County rules
- Show an Anne Arundel County driver’s license and your vehicle registration; the license proves you live in the county, and the registration shows whether the vehicle is commercial.
- Recycling centers turn away waste in a rental vehicle, dump truck, flatbed, stake body or box truck, rental trailer, or double-axle trailer; take it to the Millersville Landfill, where it costs $100 a ton.
- Each material gets up to 5 minutes to unload, and everyone has to be off the site 15 minutes after closing, so arrive at least 30 minutes before 4 p.m.
- Businesses in the county may bring only paper, plastic, metal, and glass recyclables to the recycling centers, free. Business trash and yard waste go to the landfill at $100 a ton.
- No county facility takes rechargeable batteries, gasoline or other fuels, coal or ashes, chemicals, poisons, or oil-based paint; those go only to the hazardous waste drop-off days.
