Maryland rules and programs

  • Yard waste landfill ban

    Partly

    Maryland bans separately collected yard waste (grass, leaves and brush) from final disposal, so yard waste that is set out or hauled on its own must go to composting or mulching rather than a landfill.

  • Secured load law

    Yes

    A loaded vehicle may not be driven unless it is built or loaded so nothing drops, sifts, leaks or escapes, and the load and any cover are fastened securely. The owner must remove dirt or debris that falls on a highway within a reasonable time.
