Waste Removal Services

Potomac Station is serviced by two separate vendors, depending on whether you live on the county or the town side.  Please remember that trash cans should NOT be placed out before 6:00 PM the day prior to trash collection per Design Guidelines Section 2.2.26 (SFH) and 3.2.28 (TH), and should be stored by the end of the day of collection.  Trash cans must have lids and should be stored in a garage, shed, Covenants-approved trash enclosure, or the back of your home.

Yard waste must be disposed of in brown paper bags or a container labeled “Yard Waste“. Do not place yard waste in plastic bags. They will not be picked up per County-ordinance.

Dumping is not authorized in any common areas.  If you have bulk items that require removal, coordinate with the appropriate waste removal service and place them out the night before the scheduled pickup.
