Good News !!

The recycling issue has been resolved. Residents can now place all recyclable material in one recycle bin that will be picked up by Public Works and taken to the County recycling plant ( not the landfill ). Residents that have a large accumulation of paper that requires a special pick-up can contact Public Works to schedule the pick-up. The phone number at PW is 301-985-6583. You can also e-mail your request to Ruth Sandy at rsandy@mountrainiermd.org.

Changes To Trash and Recycling Pickup

Due to equipment breakdown, the City of Mount Rainier Department of Public Works will continue to pick up bottles and cans on a weekly basis. Paper and cardboard can be held temporarily, or residents can bring these items to the public works garage during regular business hours: 9:00am until 5:00 pm Monday through Friday. In addition, regular trash service will be conducted on Wednesday or Thursday of each week until further notice. Please have your trash out for Wednesday pick up and leave it out until collected. Thanks for your cooperation.

With only two wheels to sustain balance, the Segway looks a bit daunting at first, but it only took each us about five minutes of instruction to get up and running. It's really a lot easier than it looks! It didn't take long for officers Banton and Goldring to disappear to test their riding skills around the Rhode Island Avenue and 34th Street business districts. None of us wanted to get off to let someone else try it ou
