Trash/Recycling Collection
REFUSE HAULER INFORMATION
Prince William County does not provide trash and recycling collection, nor bins for collection. Residents can haul their own trash/recycling to the Landfill, Balls Ford Compost Facility, the Saturday collection sites, or recycling trailers.
Residents, Homeowners Associations (HOAs) and business owners may contract with a private Refuse Hauler to collect trash/recycling from their homes or businesses. Refuse haulers are also listed in the yellow pages under garbage removal. The hauler charges for collection and transportation of trash. The County does not regulate the fees of any refuse haulers.
When selecting a hauler consider the following:
- Shop around, get several bids and compare prices/services.
- Work with neighbors to create a service area to be served by a single permitted hauler. This reduces the number of collection days and wear and tear on the community's roads.
- County staff can assist neighborhoods and HOAs in preparing a contract to hire a refuse hauler to service an entire neighborhood or community.
If a hauler fails to provide trash or recycling removal services, call the company directly to report the problem. Company name and phone number may be on the side of the trash receptacle, monthly bill or the Refuse Hauler list.
