We wanted to apologize for the delays your community is experiencing with curbside collection. The hauler servicing your area has severe shortages in staffing and has been unable to complete all three pickups (trash, recycling, yard waste) on your collection day.
In order to correct this, yard waste collection will now occur on Wednesdays until further notice. Your trash and recycling will continue to be collected on your normal collection day.
Please forward this email message along with the attached letter from Christopher Phipps, Director of Anne Arundel County’s Department of Public Works, to your community members. The letter provides additional information regarding this service change.
Additionally, an online search tool is available to help with confirming the addresses that are impacted. Please visit: https://www.aacounty.org/departments/public-works/waste-management/curbside-collection-day-change-for-yard-waste/index.html
Our County Recycling Centers are always available as an option to dispose of your yard waste. For more information, including hours of operation and locations, visit: https://www.aacounty.org/departments/public-works/waste-management/recycling-centers/
Please note: Due to the July 4th holiday being observed on Monday July 5th, causing collections to slide one day for Monday and Tuesday customers, curbside yard waste collection will not occur on Wednesday, July 7th. Your yard waste collection will resume on Wednesday, July 14th.
Thanks for your help in distributing this information throughout your community and again, we apologize for the inconvenience.
As always, let us know if you have any questions or feedback.
Be safe, stay well.
