Prince George's Offers Free Storm Debris Disposal

Bring your brush, tree limbs, and damaged items to the county's waste management facilities by Friday.

Friday's violent storm system left behind untold tons of debris across the region, from fallen trees and broken branches to shattered glass and scrap metal.

If you're one of the many Prince George's residents who have yet to clear away the wreckage, there's a bit of good news: You'll be able to drop off storm-related debris for free at the county's waste disposal facilities through this Friday, July 6.

At the Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill (11611 White House Rd., Upper Marlboro), residents can drop off brush, tree limbs, roofing materials, siding, and other damaged household items between 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
