Other notes

Source conflict on hours: the county's facilities list shows the Brown Station Road convenience center open Monday-Saturday 7:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m., while its Feb. 11, 2026 news release and the landfill page say 7:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. Call 301-952-7625 before a late trip.
Source conflict on landfill rates: the landfill page headline says the standard rate is $90 per ton effective July 1, 2026, but the line below still says $85 per ton with a $10 minimum.
Landfill payment: cash, credit card or account only; no checks and no American Express. Card payments carry a temporary hold of 50% of the gross weight charge until the final cost is set.
Yard trim is not accepted in plastic bags. Refrigerant appliances must be hand unloaded.
Both centers are run by the County under the same eligibility and vehicle rules, so they are listed together on this page.
