recycling collection services, through a private

contractor, to an estimated 30,000 residences within

the County’s Development District. In contrast,

Solid Waste collection is contracted directly by

residents and/or home-owners from private haulers

or is self-hauled to one of the County’s drop-off

centers.

hauler for collection of Solid Waste from single-family

and multi-family residences in multiple neighborhoods

recycling services via the County’s curbside recycling

contract. A recent update to the Charles County Solid
