Call 508-822-2208The Halifax Recycling Center on Plymouth Street is there if you want to haul your own. Here is what it actually costs you.
The Recycling Center opens three short windows a week, one of them a Monday evening, and it takes checks only: no cash, no cards.
Halifax runs its own curbside program, with recycling every other week. For fiscal 2027 it is $450 a year, up from $440. It is billed $225 in October and April. 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 $35 a month, $420 a year against the town's $450, with recycling every week instead of every other week, no pre-registration and no evening trip across town. Bulky items are a phone call and a price we tell you before we come. Your rate is guaranteed for a year.
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, the fiscal 2027 curbside rate, and hours checked November 2026. 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. When a weekday holiday falls on or before your pickup day, your pickup moves one day later. See the holiday schedule.
New customers start at $35 a month for two 64-gallon totes, $40 for a 96-gallon trash tote with a 64-gallon recycling tote, and $45 for two 96-gallon totes. One flat monthly rate, totes included, no hidden fees. Your rate is guaranteed for 1 year from your start date.
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.
The Recycling Center at 917 Plymouth Street is open 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., and closed the rest of the week. It takes checks only. Or skip the trip: Carney picks up at your curb every Thursday for $35 a month.

The town program itself is $450 a year for fiscal 2027, billed in October and April, with recycling every other week. With Carney there is no sticker and no enrollment: your totes go out at the curb every Thursday, with recycling every week.
