2024 Dumpster Days

Dumpster Days, which will begin in April, have been scheduled by the Prince William County Department of Public Works Solid Waste Division for communities across the county. 

Large dumpsters, placed in neighborhoods during Dumpster Days, offer neighbors a chance to come together to clean up their homes, yards, and communities of unwanted clutter and debris.

The Dumpster Days are open for use by all County residents. Residents are encouraged to take part in organizing or participating in a community cleanup to spruce up their surrounding neighborhoods.  Volunteers can participate in area litter pickups as well as use the County dumpster to remove clutter and debris from their yards or other areas around their homes.   

Items that will not be accepted on Dumpster Days include fuel tanks, motor oil, fuel drums, household hazardous waste, antifreeze, paint, paint thinners, pesticides, pool chemicals, electronics, or commercial waste. These items can be taken to the Prince William County Landfill at 14811 Dumfries Road. See the A to Z Disposal Guide for more information on the proper disposal of items that cannot be accepted during Dumpster Days.

Please ensure that household appliances such as refrigerators are emptied and wiped clean. Remove glass trays from microwave ovens and tape the oven doors shut before dropping them at the dumpster.
