Call Today!The Halifax Recycling Center on Plymouth Street is a perfectly good option and some households should use it. Here is what it actually costs you.
The Recycling Center opens Monday 5:00 to 8:00 p.m., Wednesday 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. That is the whole week, and it takes checks only: no cash, no cards.
Halifax runs its own curbside program at $440 a year, billed twice. Residents not enrolled in it pay $75 for a Recycling Center sticker instead.
A mattress or box spring is $50, a sleeper sofa $50, a couch $30, a recliner $21. Curbside bulky pickup is monthly, pre-registered and pre-paid.
Every Thursday, from your curb, for $30 a month, $360 a year against the town's $440, with no pre-registration and no evening trip across town. Bulky items are a phone call and a price we tell you before we come.
Town of Halifax curbside program cost, sticker and bulky waste fees and Recycling Center hours as published by the town, fee schedule effective March 2025. Check with the town before you go.
Every Thursday. Have your totes at the curb by 7:00 a.m. Recycling is collected the same day, every week. In a holiday week your pickup moves one day later. See the holiday schedule.
$30 a month for two 64-gallon totes, $35 for a 96-gallon trash tote with a 64-gallon recycling tote, and $40 for two 96-gallon totes. One flat monthly rate, totes included, no hidden fees.
A 64-gallon tote holds about four large kitchen bags and a 96-gallon tote about seven. One or two people usually fit in the 64. A household of four or more usually needs the 96. If you outgrow it, call and we swap it.
Fill out the sign-up form online, any time, or call 508-822-2208. We call back during office hours to confirm your pickup day, tote size and start date. Nothing is billed until your first collection.
