The calendar contains a single stream recycling guide, winter weather tips, how to schedule bulk trash pick up, locations for citizen drop-off centers, rat control tips, how to protect the quality of our drinking water and how to keep our streams and harbors clean.
Baltimore City holidays with their make up trash and recycling collections days as well as Public Works events such as the Mayor’s Spring and Fall cleanup dates are listed.
New this year is a sheet of trash and recycling stickers so kids (and young-at-heart adults) can mark their trash and recycling collections days. Residents can call 311 for their schedule and then mark it on the calendar.
Serious budgetary challenges delayed a commitment to printing and mailing the calendars before the first of the year. However, these much anticipated, award-wining calendars are an important tool in promoting recycling and in highlighting sanitation issues affecting the health and cleanliness of the water in our streams and harbor. The calendar is free to Baltimore City residents and has been voted one of the best uses of taxpayers’ money several years running by City Paper’s Best of Baltimore.
City residents who have not received a calendar within the next two weeks, should call 311 to request one. To view a calendar on-line as a .pdf, click here and wait a minute - it's a big file!
