Information on new Baltimore County single stream recycling

Single stream recycling begins Feb 1.

Recycling in Baltimore County is going to be easier than ever with the start of an exciting new single stream recycling program on February 1. Single stream recycling means that paper, bottles and cans (all combined in the same container) will be collected each week. New four-year recycling schedules are being mailed the end of January. Residents who do not receive their schedule by February 1 should visit the Bureau of Solid Waste Management web site or call 410-887-2000 to obtain a new schedule. Recyclables set out for recycling collection in plastic bags of any type or color will not be collected.
