Junk removal
in Rising Sun, MD.

Rising Sun and the farmland around it throw a different kind of job at us than the Route 40 towns — barns, outbuildings, equipment that hasn’t moved in fifteen years, and properties where the nearest neighbor is a field away.

Where we work in town

Rising Sun, street by street

We work the town itself plus the spread around it: the Route 273 and Route 274 corridors, Colora and Sylmar, Calvert out toward the Pennsylvania line, and the farm properties on the back roads where a dump trailer needs a firm place to sit. Space to turn a loaded trailer is rarely the problem up here. Soft ground after a wet week sometimes is, so mention it if your lane has been chewed up.

Where it goes

Disposal in Cecil County

Cecil County runs its own disposal system and everything we pull out of a Rising Sun 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’s 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’re comparing haulers — Cecil County facilities won’t accept waste generated outside the county, and the reverse is true too. A hauler running your Rising Sun debris out of the county is paying to do it, and that shows up in your price.

I had a couple appliances that I needed to remove from my basement. They came in and took quick care of everything. Thanks guys. I’ll call you again.

Rising Sun questions

Before you call

Do you do barn and outbuilding cleanouts?

That’s a good share of what we do around Rising Sun. Old feed, broken implements, scrap piles, decades of stored lumber — we sort the metal out for scrap before it goes to the scale, which usually takes a real bite out of the tonnage you pay for.

Where is the nearest drop box for old medications?

Rising Sun town hall has a drop box for unwanted medication, and so does the Elkton town hall lobby. Neither of those can go on our truck, so it’s worth handling separately before we come.

What’s your turnaround in Rising Sun?

Most Rising Sun jobs go out the same week the quote is accepted, and we can sometimes do next-day if a slot opens. Send photos and you’ll get a real date back, not a vague promise.

Can you do the job while I am at work?

Yes, as long as we can get to the items without going through a locked house. Plenty of our Rising Sun jobs happen with nobody home — you leave the garage open or the gate unlocked, and we send photos and the invoice when it’s done.

Is there anything you have to refuse?

Yes — liquid paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, asbestos and medical waste. Those need a licensed route we don’t have, and no landfill in this region will take them off a hauling truck. We flag it before the day instead of leaving it in your driveway.
