Producers, on their own or through a producer responsibility organization, submit a plan to MDE and pay fees that are adjusted by how recyclable, compostable or reusable their packaging is. Producer funding of local recycling costs phases in from 2028.
PackLoop maps each material in your packaging specs to Maryland’s reporting categories, and totals the weight you place on the market there.
Fee figures come only from the fee schedule you upload for Maryland. Until a published schedule is on file, PackLoop shows estimates as estimates and will not mark the state ready to file.
