Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drop off recyclables at the WM Elkridge facility?
No. This is a commercial materials recovery facility that processes recyclables collected from contracted routes — it is not open to individual residents. Howard County residents should use the Alpha Ridge Residents' Convenience Center at 2350 Marriottsville Rd, Marriottsville (open Mon–Sat 8 AM–4 PM; Howard County ID required).
Does WM Elkridge accept electronics or batteries?
No public drop-off of any kind is available at this facility. For electronics, batteries, motor oil, and household hazardous waste, Howard County residents can use the Alpha Ridge Residents' Convenience Center, which accepts those materials during its regular operating hours.
What is a materials recovery facility (MRF)?
An MRF is an industrial plant that receives mixed recyclables — typically from curbside collection trucks — and uses mechanical and manual sorting to separate paper, cardboard, plastics, metals, and glass into commodity streams for reprocessing. The WM Elkridge MRF handles recyclables collected commercially throughout the region, not from walk-in customers.
