Elkton is located on the Colonial Highway of America, sitting at the northern headwaters of the Chesapeake Bay. Elkton, the County Seat for Cecil County, has a population of 14,800 and is comfortably nestled midway between Washington, DC and New York City. Elkton is very fortunate to have the comforts, charm, and atmosphere of a small town with all the advantages of larger cities such as Baltimore, MD and Philadelphia, PA just minutes away.   Click here for a map of the Elkton area.   

Brush and Leaf collection will be suspended from December 30th until April 2nd.   Christmas trees will be collected until January 31st.  Residents should place trees out for collection on their usual brush collection day.  Decorations, lights, and ornaments must be removed, and trees cannot be bagged. 

 

 

The Town of Elkton's Department of Public Works reminds citizens of the following with respect to snow removal:

    • When snow is in the forecast, residents should park their cars in garages, driveways or other off street parking, when available. This is especially true in cul-de-sacs.  If a truck can not safely plow around cars parked in a cul-de-sac, the truck must leave the street and return the next day after the cars have been removed.
    • During plowing operations, it is inevitable that snow will be moved into driveways and onto sidewalks.  When possible, residents are asked to wait to clear their driveways and sidewalks until after plowing operations have taken place.   We do not have the resources to dig out driveways after the roads have been plowed.
    • Please avoid throwing snow into cleared, plowed streets
    • Consider clearing snow from nearby fire hydrants and storm drains

REMEMBER:  The faster we get in, the quicker you can get out
