Rules in District of Columbia
- DC drop-off at Fort Totten is for DC residents only (photo ID proving DC address; out-of-state ID needs a utility bill from the last 30 days or lease/deed with the same name). Businesses must use a commercial hauler. Benning Road Transfer Station is temporarily closed until further notice. Source
- Household hazardous waste, electronics and document shredding are collected at special DPW events (free registration on Eventbrite, DC residents only, proof of residency), not at the transfer stations. The Sep 12 and Sep 24, 2026 events at RFK Lot 8 have passed; no later dates were listed. Source
Before you go
- Ask about the last entry time; scales often stop taking loads before closing.
- A cargo net or tarp keeps bags and boards in place and saves an uncovered-load fee.
- Liquids, paint and chemicals usually go to a hazardous waste site, not the dump.
- Load the heaviest items last so they come off first.
