Commuters and Visitors
We thank you for choosing Baltimore for your work and play. We love having you visit and we are happy to dispose of the trash you leave behine as long as you leave it in a public trash can. Baltimore residents and businesses spend a great of money placing and maintaining trash cans across our city because we want you to use them.
Help us keep Baltimore clean and green:
- Always place your litter in a trash can
- Never litter sidewalks, gutters and streets: it’s dirty, rude and illegal
- Littering is subject to fines
- Suggest a trash can location: if you think we’ve missed a spot that needs a can please tell us via our Contact Page or by calling 311
- Tell us if a can is overflowing: please let us know by dialing 311
- Report littering: if you see a motorist littering please dial 311 and provide the incident location and license plate number
- Participate in rideshare and carpool programs: reduce carbon emissions, improve air quality and save money on gasoline
- Take public transportation: Baltimore is home to light rail, MARC trains, and a subway system
- Enjoy Baltimore by bike: Ride along the Gwynns Falls Trail and newly opened Inner Harbor Promenade, among other great bike routes suggested in Baltimore’s Bike Plan
