Garrett County Government Solid Waste

Small county-run drop-off for general household trash and recyclables, mostly used by Garrett County residents. A rural site off Maryland Highway that sees a lot of weekend traffic in spring and fall. Locals swing by with trailer loads, yard debris, or a trunk full of bagged trash.

Pull in from Maryland Hwy and you'll likely see an entrance booth and a short line at busy times. There’s a scale and an outbound stop in many county facilities, so expect to slow down twice if bringing a heavy load. Recycling and yard-waste bins are usually grouped to one side and the larger compactor or trash area sits farther back on the property. Gravel parking and clear signs make it easy to tell where to unload, but weekends can back up quickly.
