Weekly Residential Waste Collection in Maryland

Blue Hen Disposal offers once a week residential trash pickup in Queen Anne, Caroline, Talbot and Kent Counties in Maryland.

Blue Hen Disposal picks up residential waste with the newest, most technologically advanced fleet of automated collection trucks in Maryland. When placing your trash container at the curb do not lean objects against the container or place the container too close to fences, trees, mailboxes, or vehicles. See photo below for proper container placement.

Automated service utilizes a truck equipped with a mechanical arm that lifts your trash and recycling containers from the street and empties the containers' contents into the truck - without the driver ever leaving the cab.

Automated trash service is more convenient. Place waste and recycling* materials in the proper container throughout the week; simply wheel to the curb the evening prior to your scheduled collection and the truck’s mechanical arm will do the rest.

The automated containers are more durable, and reduce the likelihood of tipping or spilling. Because they are uniform in appearance, they also help neighborhoods look neater and cleaner.
