Mount Airy Town Code § 96-15 requires written authorization from the Mayor and Council before any obstruction is placed in a Town street ($500 and/or 90 days otherwise). We ask Town Hall (301-829-1424) first; no Town rule for your own driveway.

Dumpster Rental in Mount Airy
A railroad town on Parr’s Ridge, split between two counties, with one Town rule for anything in its streets.
Mount Airy grew up where the B&O crossed Parr’s Ridge near the National Pike, and its historic district still centres on the brick 1882 station. The houses there are mostly two-storey frame homes, I-houses, Foursquares and bungalows on tree-lined streets, with newer neighbourhoods around it. The town sits across the Frederick and Carroll county line, with about 9,900 people in 2025.
US 40 runs about fourteen miles west to Frederick, and I-70 runs along the town’s southern edge, so we cover both sides of the county line. It is usually a next-morning run, sometimes same-day if you call early.

Do I need a permit in Mount Airy?
Mount Airy has a written rule for anything placed in a Town street: Town Code § 96-15 makes it unlawful to place “any sign, marking, obstruction” on a Town street or roadway without prior written authorization from the Mayor and Council, and the Town’s fine schedule lists that offence at $500 and/or 90 days. The rule covers Town streets only, not county or state roads (§ 96-15C). So a container in a Town street needs the Mayor and Council’s written go-ahead first, and we ask Town Hall (110 South Main Street, 301-829-1424) before any street placement. On your own driveway the Town publishes no container rule. Building permits for the whole town, on both sides of the county line, are processed by Carroll County, and the Town’s trash rules keep lumber, dirt, bricks, concrete and other construction refuse out of household trash containers (§ 64-14A).
