| An appreciable amount of recyclable material is still landfilled at the Millersville Facility by businesses. A waste sort revealed that a significant percent of commercial waste disposed was made up of paper products, a recyclable commodity for which markets do exist.
Continuing to landfill materials that can be recycled consumes valuable landfill capacity. While other counties have passed legislation to enforce commercial recycling programs, Anne Arundel County has pursued voluntary recycling and reporting. Each year the County solicits businesses to report the amount of material they were able to recycle. In return, the County recognizes the business by promoting their accomplishment in the local newspaper. Take advantage of this opportunity for free publicity and call us at (410) 222-7951 for further details. Technical and practical assistance is also available to businesses that would like to start a recycling program or need help expanding an existing program. A recycling specialist will visit a work site to help start a program, as well as provide commercial recycling guides, information on local recycling companies, and markets, and access to other resources. For more information on commercial recycling, log on to www.mdrecycles.org.
Services Available to Commercial Customers Commercial Customers are welcome at the Millersville Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility. Waste Management Services provides a comprehensive system of municipal solid waste collection, recycling, disposal, and related services to the citizens, businesses, and institutions of Anne Arundel County. The County does not accept any material generated outside of Anne Arundel County. Waste Management Services operates as an enterprise. All of the services are financially supported by our customers through a fee paid by residents with curbside collection, or a landfill fee paid by commercial users and users with large loads. The enterprise does not receive any revenue from County tax dollars. We can only accept trash generated in Anne Arundel County, and verify residency by checking driver's licenses. Commercially marked or registered vehicles must use the Millersville landfill and are subject to a tipping fee charged by the ton. Vehicle registration will be checked upon entrance. | | | The Millersville Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility is the only facility equipped to accept payment, so customers who must pay are directed there. For the convenience of all of our customers, stickers can be obtained to avoid future driver's license and registration checks. However, small businesses may drop off an unlimited amount of paper, plastic, metal, and glass at the Sudley Convenience Center, Glen Burnie Convenience Center or Millersville Convenience Center at no charge.
