Junk removal
in Elkton.
Elkton is our home ground. The county landfill sits a couple of miles from the middle of town, which means short runs, less drive time on your bill, and same-week scheduling most weeks.

Where we work in town
Elkton,
street by street
We cover the whole town and the sprawl around it — the Route 40 strip, the Route 279 run out toward the Delaware line, Singerly and the Route 213 corridor north, and the older blocks downtown where alley access decides what truck we bring. Rental turnovers around the Route 40 apartments and estate work in the neighborhoods off Route 213 are both regular weeks for us.

Where it goes
Disposal in
Cecil County
Cecil County runs its own disposal system and everything we pull out of a Elkton property stays inside it. The Central Landfill sits at 758 East Old Philadelphia Road in Elkton, open Monday through Saturday, 7:30am to 3:30pm.
Worth knowing, because it catches people out: the county’s two transfer stations — Woodlawn on Waibel Road in Colora and Stemmer’s Run in Earleville — only take bagged household trash and recyclables. Bulky waste, furniture, construction debris and cleanout material all have to go to the Central Landfill in Elkton, no matter which corner of the county it came from. So if you were planning to run a load to whichever one is closest to you, it will get turned away at the gate.
The scale house weighs trucks in and out and charges by the ton. That is the whole reason we ask for photos before quoting: the weight of a load is most of the cost of a load, and guessing at it over the phone helps nobody.
One more thing if you are comparing haulers — Cecil County facilities will not accept waste generated outside the county, and the reverse is true too. A hauler running your Elkton debris out of the county is paying to do it, and that shows up in your price.
Elkton questions
Before
you call
Where do I take old medications and paint in Elkton?
The Elkton town hall lobby has a 24-hour drop box for unwanted medication. For paint, chemicals, and gasoline, Cecil County runs Household Hazardous Waste collection days a few times a year — call the Solid Waste Management Division at 410-996-6275 for the next date. We cannot take any of it on the truck.
Do you handle rental turnovers for Elkton landlords?
Regularly. Give us access and we will clear the unit, sweep it, and send photos and an invoice the same day — you do not have to meet us there. If you manage several properties we can work off a standing arrangement instead of quoting each one from scratch.
How far ahead do I need to book?
Less than most people expect. A single-item pickup in Elkton can sometimes happen within a day or two; a full property cleanout needs more notice because it takes more than one day. Either way you get a firm date up front.
What if I cannot be there?
That is normal and not a problem. Tell us how to get to the items — an open garage, an unlocked gate, a lockbox code — and we will clear it, sweep up, and send you photos with the invoice.
Are there things you cannot legally haul?
A short list: liquid waste, paint, chemicals, fuel, propane tanks, asbestos and medical waste. Every disposal facility we use turns those away at the gate, so we will not load them. We would rather tell you up front than surprise you.
