How days are assigned
Collection routes in Bethesda are published as a map (Montgomery County MD Department of Environmental Protection): each route area carries a fixed weekday for trash, recycling and yard waste; the lookup reads that area for your address.
Trash, recycling and yard waste are collected weekly. County trash collection covers Subdistrict A only; where no trash day is shown the County does not collect trash at this address and the household or its HOA contracts a private hauler. Multi-unit buildings of more than six dwellings are not on County collection even inside a route.
We last checked Bethesda on September 17, 2026: 8 of 8 addresses returned an exact collection day. The days they returned were Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. That is what our check saw, not a full list of Bethesda's pickup days.
