Montgomery County and Rockville Trash Service Slides Two Days, Transfer Station Open

Find out how to handle storm debris and what to do with it.

 

As Sandy moves out and the cleanup begins, trash and recycling service in Montgomery County and the City of Rockville will slide with service two days later than usual through the weekend.

The Shady Grove Processing Facility and Transfer Station in Rockville will be open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Montgomery County announced.

There will be no county or city trash or recycling collection on Tuesday. The following service schedule will be in effect:

  • If your normal service day is Monday, this week collection will occur Wednesday.
  • If your normal service day is Tuesday, this week collection will occur Thursday.
  • If your normal service day is Wednesday, this week collection will occur Friday.
  • If your normal service day is Thursday, this week collection will occur Saturday.
  • If your normal service day is Friday, this week collection will occur Sunday.

County and city trash and recycling collection will resume on the usual schedule on Monday.

If a tree is touching a power line, stay clear of the tree and call Pepco at 1-877-737-2662.

City of Rockville residents with tree emergencies, such as a tree blocking a roadway or driveway, should call 240-314-8700. 

Rockville residents should place storm debris at the curb for crews to collect. "Branches should be no more than eight feet long and should easily clear overhead power lines and trees so they can be accessed by Rockville's heavy equipment vehicles," according to a city news release.

Twinbrook Swimming Pool (TSP) can hold three public open house days to introduce the pool toRead More perspective members. This year the dates are June 8, July 13 and August 10. The cost is $5 per person. The TSP has a big insurance policy to cover swimmers. Not sure free is appropriate. As a private membership pool, there are regulations that must be followed.

Does either county or city pool offer free trial periods? I don't think so.

If you swim on the 3 open public swim days at the Twinbrook Swimming Pool, you can consider it aRead More trial. Liability insurance does cost money. Entrance of $5 is a real bargain. Members pay to maintain the pool.

I am so sorry this happened to your girls! There is no excuse for the theater personnel notRead More helping. I hope you get an apology from management. Perhaps the city police should have an officer in the area after the last movie.

Yaaaay! Lets put it on the police again. Good thinking the Deb. How about Kate gets her daughter aRead More chaperone. Ask 2 people and then a movie theatre employee and then walk home? That story sounds really fishy. I don't believe the world is in as bad a shape as Kate purports.

I think more facts are necessary here. When you didn't hear from them you didn't go to theater toRead More find them? It is hard to know where blame lies here, not knowing how old these girls are. It sounds like your daughter and god daughter don't have their own phones? No matter my children's age, I make it a point to know the running times of the movies they're at, especially if I am the one who is going to be picking them up. We warn children--especially girls and young women--not to go to strangers for help. We know that of the three girls, the man kidnapped one who was his daughter's friend after giving her a lift.
