Collection Schedule

The City of Rockville provides once-per-week curbside recycling, trash and yard waste collections. The collection day is determined by your address.      

Tips:

  • All carts and materials must be placed at the curb or alleyway the night before or by 6 a.m. on your collection day.
  • Carts should have the wheels to the curb and the lid opening to the street. Do not block mailboxes or driveways.
  • Carts must be removed from the curb or alleyway within 24 hours after collection.

Some Rockville addresses are not within city limits and will need to be serviced by a local provider.

Missed Collection?

There are a number of reasons why your recycling, trash or yard waste may have been missed.

  • Unaccepted Items: If items are in the recycling or trash carts that are not accepted by the city the waste will not be collected.
If your recycling, trash or yard waste was not collected, you can report a missed collection online or by calling 240-314-8568.
