Yard waste and brush disposal will continue to be free for Montgomery County residents at the Solid Waste District. All yard waste must be clean and free of debris/ trash with pieces no larger than 24” in diameter, and no stumps. Contractors will be charged at $36/ ton for yard waste and brush disposal. Residents should continue putting yard waste and brush debris at curbside. Local jurisdictions, private haulers, and volunteers are helping to remove yard waste and brush and take it to the appropriate location.
Montgomery County residents in heavily affected areas will continue to experience approximately a 20% reduction in disposal costs. All trash and/or debris should be taken directly to the Solid Waste District or transported by private haulers from the curb. Jurisdictions and private haulers are helping to manage cleanup for trash and construction/demolition debris by providing large dumpsters in affected areas.
