(301) 387-0322Small county solid waste site in Grantsville used by residents of Garrett County for household trash, recycling and yard debris. It’s the kind of place locals tuck into on cleanup days or when a pickup won’t cut it. Expect a working landfill/transfer-station feel rather than anything fancy.
Drive up to a staffed entrance booth and be prepared to pull over for directions; larger trucks and trailers will need a bit more room to maneuver. There’s open tipping areas and roll-off style containers visible from the approach, with recycling bins typically off to one side. Traffic builds on weekends and during spring and fall cleanups, so plan for short waits and slow-moving vehicles. The site is mostly gravel and pavement-muddy after rain-so low clearance cars should take it easy.
