The Montgomery County Solid Waste Management Area is governed by the Montgomery County Fiscal Court, consisting of the Judge Executive and three Commissioners. An Advisory Committee Board, made up of seven members of differing backgrounds, offers advice and technical expertise to the MCSWMA.
Montgomery County employs a Solid Waste Coordinator (SWC) who oversees the implementation of the County's solid waste management plan including collection, disposal, recycling & reduction, open dumps & litter, facility siting, enforcement and finance. The SWC enforces the County's solid waste ordinances and handles issues regarding solid waste collection, landfill disposal, illegal dumping and special events while providing community education and available resources.
Please contact the Montgomery County SWC for information on programs, special events, policies, and any additional questions on solid waste management.
