What it takes
It’s the only place in Carroll County that takes tires, appliances, some mattresses, electronics, construction debris, used motor oil, and some batteries.
Each item has its own rules. Check before you go.
Carroll County rules
- The county doesn’t collect trash. Residents hire a licensed hauler, get service through their town, or haul their own trash and recycling to the Northern Landfill in Westminster.
- At the Northern Landfill, a resident’s car load under 200 pounds is a flat $8. Heavier loads pay by the ton: $70 for household trash, $75 for bulky waste, and $85 for construction debris, $8 at least. Credit cards are taken.
- Recycling at the landfill’s Recycling Center is free for residents: appliances, scrap metal, yard trim, car batteries, oil, electronics, rigid plastics, clothing, and books.
