Here is our County-provided recycling and trash collection plan at this time. It may change, depending on weather and road conditions. We will send you updates until this weather event is completed. Sign up for updates and reminders for your specific collection day.

  • There will be no County-provided recycling and trash pickups on Wednesday, January 27, 2016.

  • Do not set material out at the curb for pickup.

  • No decision has been made at this time regarding when collection service will resume and what that schedule will be. In addition to the updates you receive, we'll post our schedule to our website, and to our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

If you have any questions or concerns about your County-provided collection, please call the Montgomery County Customer Service Center at 311 (out-of-County: 240-777-0311, TTY: 301-251-4850).

If you (or your community) have a private contract for your trash collection, or if you live in a municipality, our schedule announcements may not apply to your trash service -- check with your hauler or community manager.

Every branch big with it,
Bent every twig with it;
Every fork like a white web-foot;
Every street and pavement mute:
Some flakes have lost their way, and grope back upward when
Meeting those meandering down they turn and descend again.
The palings are glued together like a wall,
And there is no waft of wind with the fleecy fall.

A sparrow enters the tree,
Whereon immediately
A snow-lump thrice his own slight size
Descends on him and showers his head and eye
And overturns him,
And near inurns him,
And lights on a nether twig, when its brush
Starts off a volley of other lodging lumps with a rush.

The steps are a blanched slope,
Up which, with feeble hope,
A black cat comes, wide-eyed and thin;
And we take him in.
