As part of our ongoing efforts to maintain the cleanliness and beauty of our city, we have collaborated with Prince George's County to develop a tentative Spring-Cleaning Plan for the Incorporated City of District Heights. Please note that this plan is subject to written confirmation from Prince George's County.

Permitted Items: Furniture (small items must be bagged or boxed), Household appliances, Electronics TVs and monitors, Clothing and textiles, Toys and small recreational items, Non-hazardous household items, lawn and garden equipment (cleaned of fuel and oil), Small automotive parts, Bicycles, Small home improvement items, Covered Mattresses, batteries, and tires.

Unpermitted items include mattresses (unless properly covered), propane tanks, paints and solvents, Hazardous materials, construction debris, and yard waste.

Special Instructions:

• All items must be brought to the resident's curb.

• Advise residents that excessive household items and illegal dumping can result in items not being picked up.

• Roll-off Dumpsters will be available on municipal grounds from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm., Monday through Friday, to prevent illegal dumping. 24-hour security surveillance will also be in place.

• For residents with special needs or restrictions requiring further assistance, please email Public Works at PublicWorks@districtheights.org. Provide your address and a list of items for assessment and approval by April 8.

Safety Measures:

No entry into your residence will be permitted to ensure our staff's and residents' safety. Please place items for pick-up in an easily accessible location. Mattresses must be covered appropriately to prevent damage during transport.

We kindly remind residents to avoid allowing outsiders to bring trash into their neighborhood. This contributes to illegal dumping and affects the cleanliness of our community.

We appreciate you taking the time to look into this and will provide further updates when we receive written confirmation from Prince George's County.
