What to do with tires, mattresses, paint, and more
Before you go
- Only waste from inside Frederick County is accepted, even from county residents. Show your driver’s license; if it doesn’t have a Frederick County address, bring a utility bill or invoice showing where the waste came from.
- Use the Recycle Road entrance, just before the main entrance, for the free recycling drop-off. Anything that needs a license check or a fee goes through the main entrance and the scale house.
- Cover or tie down every load; an unsecured load can bring a $100 fine. The site takes no liquids of any kind.
Transfer stations
- Everything that crosses the scales costs at least $10; past that, it’s charged by weight in 20-pound steps. Trash is $83.26 a ton. Cash, check, money order, Apple Pay, and credit cards are taken.
