Easy experience and the lady at the desk was very nice. The price is reasonable compared to what they were charging me to haul the tree away.

Quick in and out. Never very busy watch out for the world's most brutal speed bumps

Questions & Answers

Where can I get free mulch in Prince George’s county Md

Don't think they give away mulch. You can get it by the cubic yard at nurseries pretty cheap. $25-35 a yard.

I recently received my green bin for compost collection, (proud of my county)!!! I know the program starts May 1, 2022 but I don't know the pick up days for my neighborhood. Where can I find the pick up schedule by area?

If you dial 311 it should be able to help you or direct you where to call and find out.

Do i have to cut up my dead shrubs for curbside pickup?

You have to cut them and put them in recycle brown bags. As of late I've seen the collector's drive pass anything not in recycle bags. So cut the in 3 to 4ft lengths and put them in the recycle bags and they'll take them away.

Does this place cost to dump tree branches

Yes the County charges $10 minimum up to 400lbs then the price is prorated to $45 per ton.

Call T.E Woods in Clinton md

What is the god awful stench that comes from this facility? It is truly air pollution and it's getting worse it used to happen once in awhile but seems to be happening all the time now. It needs to stop.

I think it's the water treatment center right across the street from the organic composting building

Is this facility restricted to compostable material from PG County? Does this Facility accept compostable material from other nearby Counties in Maryland like Anne Arundel County?

Norma Ryskewich | Oct 21, 2019
Steven Birchfield | Oct 21, 2019

Yes. They accept both in and out of county materials.

Is there any free dirt there that can be used for growing vegies?

Sacit Guney | Oct 21, 2019
Rosemary Vozobule | Oct 21, 2019

No. They sell leafgro by cubic yard, you'd have to have a very large vehicle.

Is yard waste accepted

Byron Thomas | Oct 21, 2018
Steven Birchfield | Oct 21, 2018

Yes. Grass, leaves, and brush are accepted at the facility. They do not allow plastic bags or non organic material and you must use paper lawn bags or have the trimmings loose.
