1.     Pay and file quarterly payroll withholding. Do I pay this to the State or Federal?  You pay and file quarterly and annual payroll taxes with the IRS and the state of Maryland.

2.     Pay quarterly state unemployment tax. If I reach the maximum tax in the first quarter do I still need to file in subsequent quarters?  You report Maryland unemployment insurance taxes every quarter, and pay the required amount.

3.     Pay quarterly federal unemployment tax. If I reach the maximum tax in the first quarter do I still need to file in subsequent quarters? Federal unemployment is paid quarterly, but Form 940 is filed annually.

4.     Pay state quarterly estimated tax payment To the extent your federal withholding taxes do not cover your federal tax liability, you file federal quarterly estimated taxes.

5.     Pay federal quarterly estimate tax payment To the extent your Maryland withholding taxes do not cover your Maryland tax liability, you file Maryland quarterly estimated taxes. 

These are the all the basic payroll taxes, and your personal income tax responsibilities, and you can't combine any of these.

You also could have sales tax (or meals tax) requirements, and depending on your business, you may have industry specific quarterly reporting requirements.
