Request a Recycling or Trash Cart

Rockville residents are provided recycling and trash carts for weekly curbside collection, available in 35-, 45-, 65-, and 95-gallon sizes. The carts are wheeled and have attached, flip-open lids. Residents are responsible for maintaining the carts and must return them to the city upon moving out.

Due to high demand, residents are limited to one cart exchange per year. A reasonable effort to locate lost or missing carts must be made before a replacement is issued.

To request or exchange a recycling or trash cart, complete the form below. Your request will be acknowledged by email within 1-2 business days. Cart delivery may take up to four weeks depending on staff availability. If requesting an exchange or replacement, leave your cart out until 3 p.m. on your collection day. Staff will pick up the old cart and deliver the new one. Carts will not be delivered to vacant homes.

Recycling and Trash Cart Request Form

Recycling and trash carts are only available to Rockville residents who are provided recycling and trash service by the City of Rockville. Before making a request, check your address on the Find Your Recycle and Refuse Pickup Day map to determine if the city provides service at your address.
