What it takes
St. Mary’s County’s other five convenience centers take the same items. The St. Andrews Landfill takes tires, appliances, some mattresses, brush, and construction debris.
Each item has its own rules. Check before you go.
St. Mary’s County rules
- To throw away trash at the landfill or a convenience center, your vehicle needs a free Residential Disposal Permit sticker on the lower left of the windshield. Apply at any convenience center or the landfill scale house with your vehicle registration and proof of residence (driver’s license, lease, tax bill, or military ID). You don’t need a sticker to drop off recycling only.
- The convenience center compactors take only bagged household trash: up to four 35-gallon cans’ worth. Furniture, appliances, scrap metal, tires, yard waste, building debris, and anything bulky go to the St. Andrews Landfill instead.
- Commercial haulers can’t dump trash or rubble at the St. Andrews Landfill. The county doesn’t collect trash at the curb, so residents use the convenience centers or hire a private hauler.
