The city's appliance column covers a dishwasher, dryer, washer, hot water tank, cooking stove and space heater at the 12 dollar one to three item price, while a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is priced individually at 13 dollars each and a microwave at 8 dollars each. Commercial and display freezers are refused.
City cost & eligibility
$12 per scheduled bulky item collection of one to three standard appliances. Available to residents who receive City curbside collection, with apartment residents asked to verify eligibility before paying. A refrigerator or freezer is 13 dollars each, an air conditioner is 13 dollars each and a microwave is 8 dollars each instead of the standard price, and a commercial or display freezer is not accepted at all. Confirm with the Solid Waste Department on 508-324-2584.
When & how
Buy the sticker, schedule the pickup and set the appliance out on the scheduled date, or take it to the Lewiston Street facility during its published hours.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors before it leaves the house, and ask the department how a cooling appliance should be prepared, because the published list prices a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner without describing refrigerant handling.
Fall River publishes a single bulky item program with a scheduled curbside option and a year-round drop-off. Curbside pickup is only for residents who receive city collection, with apartment addresses asked to verify eligibility before paying, and the items are collected by the city's bulky hauler on a scheduled date with the sticker the city issues attached. The alternative is the DCM facility at 10 Lewiston St., open Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to noon. The base price is 12 dollars for one to three items from the furniture, appliance, lawn and garden, or miscellaneous lists, with individual prices for the heavier pieces, and the city's notice page warns that the published list of accepted items is not complete.
The 12 dollar price covers one to three standard items, and the city publishes the exceptions instead of hiding them. A mattress and a box spring are 50 dollars each. A refrigerator or freezer is 13 dollars each, an air conditioner is 13 dollars each and a microwave is 8 dollars each. Screens run from 10 dollars for a computer monitor or a television up to 27 inches, to 15 dollars for a television over 27 inches and 20 dollars for a console model television. Anything outside the published lists has to be confirmed with the Solid Waste Department on 508-324-2584, because the city says its list is for educational purposes and is not a complete account of what it will accept.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

A Fall River household that receives city curbside collection and has furniture, an appliance, a mattress or a screen to clear.
Cost & conditions
From $12 per scheduled bulky item collection of one to three standard items. Residents who receive City curbside collection, with apartment addresses asked to verify eligibility before paying.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Fall River.
How much does appliance removal cost in Fall River?+
A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.
Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Fall River?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.
Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?+
Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.
Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?+
Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.
Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?+
Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.
How much does the city charge for an appliance?+
It depends on the appliance. A dishwasher, dryer, washer, hot water tank, cooking stove or space heater sits in the standard group at 12 dollars for one to three items. A refrigerator or freezer and an air conditioner are 13 dollars each, and a microwave is 8 dollars each. Commercial and display freezers are on the refused list, so they cannot be collected or dropped off at all.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Fall River?+
The city's Solid Waste Division, part of the Department of Community Maintenance, runs curbside collection and the bulky item program, and it publishes its own contact details at One Government Center Room 321 on 508-324-2584 and solidwaste@fallriverma.gov. The bulky items page states that curbside bulky collection is done by the city's bulky hauler on a scheduled form, while the contact block lists a separate number for missed trash and recycling pickups and for cart repairs.Official guidance
