How collection works
How trash collection works in Fall River.
The City of Fall River's Solid Waste Department runs curbside household collection of trash, recycling and bulky items, plus yard waste from April to December.
Normal trash collection takes place Monday through Friday. Questions about service go to the Solid Waste Department at 508-324-2584 or solidwaste@fallriverma.gov.
Missed trash or recycling pickups, and repairs or replacements for trash, recycling and yard-waste carts, go to Capitol Waste Services at 1-855-533-3400, as listed on the City's Solid Waste page.
When a federal holiday falls on a Monday, trash collection is delayed by one business day and runs Tuesday through Saturday; when one falls mid-week, collection starts as normal on Monday, pauses on the holiday and resumes the next day, continuing through Saturday, and the City's 2026 schedule lists November 11, November 26 and December 25 among its remaining delay dates.
