Dumpster rental
in Fairfield.

Fairfield has no town transfer station: household trash goes by bag ticket to Waste Management in Norridgewock, and the Green Road brush dump refuses building materials. That makes a rented roll-off the practical choice for renovation or cleanout debris. Casella and Chelsea-based Riverside Disposal both name Fairfield but post no prices, so get written quotes with days, tonnage and overage, and ask each hauler to confirm its Fairfield hauler license.

The first decision in Fairfield

Start with an eligible hauler.

Neither company publishes a price, rental length or weight allowance, so the written quote decides it. Casella advertises containers up to 40 yards with one flat rate covering delivery and pickup, and its covered, wheeled boxes don't need you home. Riverside publishes exact 15-, 20- and 30-yard dimensions and lists its separate charges for freon items, tires and electronics, but its town list doesn't say which services reach Fairfield, so confirm roll-off delivery first.

Your local checklist
  1. Ask Casella and Riverside for written quotes stating rental days, included tonnage and per-ton overage, and ask each to confirm it holds a current annual Fairfield solid waste hauler license.
  2. Don't plan on a town drop-off for demolition debris: Fairfield has no transfer station, the Green Road brush dump bans building materials, and the Town's trash page doesn't say whether Waste Management in Norridgewock takes renovation waste on bag tickets.
  3. Place the roll-off on your driveway or lot; between November 1 and March 31 the overnight parking ban keeps Town streets clear for plows, and any use of a Town road should be cleared with Public Works at 207-453-6551 first.

Fairfield regulates street openings, not dumpsters, so call Public Works before using the road

Fairfield's Road Opening Ordinance (adopted June 15, 2011, last amended May 25, 2016) requires a written permit from the Director of Public Works and a $50 fee before anyone excavates or digs up paving in a street, and no permits are issued from October 31 to March 31 except in emergencies. It is an excavation rule, not a container permit. Section 10 adds that anyone permitted to occupy part of a street for building purposes must fence the occupied area and keep it lit at night, and must notify police, fire, Public Works and the school bus garage if the road will be closed. We found no Fairfield ordinance, permit or fee written for a dumpster or roll-off on a Town street or sidewalk, so the rule is unknown, not a sign that no approval is needed. Keep the container on your own driveway or lot. If it has to touch a Town road or sidewalk, call Public Works (1 Industrial Drive, 207-453-6551; Interim Director Tom Williams) first and get any approval in writing. Overnight parking is banned on Town streets from November 1 to March 31 for plowing, so plan winter placements off the road. For a state-numbered highway such as US Route 201, ask MaineDOT about the right-of-way.

What matters locally

No town transfer station: bag tickets and Waste Management in Norridgewock

Fairfield uses a pay-per-bag system. Residents buy trash tickets at the Town Office counter and, since April 1, 2018, take their bagged garbage to Waste Management at 472 Airport Road in Norridgewock (207-634-2714), open Wednesday to Friday 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Town's trash page prices a ticket at $2.50 per 30-pound bag, but the Town fee schedule amended July 24, 2024 lists $2.00 per 30-gallon bag, so confirm the current price at the Town Office (207-453-7911). The page does not say whether demolition or bulky debris is accepted on these tickets; call Waste Management before hauling renovation waste there. Recycling goes to Waterville Recycling on Armory Road, Waterville (sorting required), and electronics go free to Give It. Get It at 60 Industrial Street, Waterville.

Green Road brush dump takes brush and leaves only; freon items go to Oakland

The Green Road Brush Dump is for Fairfield residents only and usually opens from May until snowfall on the 1st through 7th of each month, dawn to dusk. It accepts brush and leaves only; building and construction materials and household trash are not allowed. Public Works does not pick up leaves, and the annual spring clean-up happens only if funded at the May Town Meeting. The Town's FAQ points residents to AIM Recycling at 25 Ayer Street in Oakland for refrigerators and freezers ($12), air conditioners ($15) and free stoves, washers and dryers, and to a yearly household hazardous waste day run with the Kennebec Valley Council of Governments, usually on a Saturday in mid-to-late October.

Questions about renting in Fairfield.

Where can Fairfield residents take trash and debris without renting a dumpster?

Fairfield has no transfer station of its own. Residents buy pay-per-bag tickets at the Town Office and take bagged household garbage to Waste Management at 472 Airport Road in Norridgewock, open Wednesday to Friday 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Town's trash page lists tickets at $2.50 per 30-pound bag, while its 2024 fee schedule shows $2.00, so check the current price. The Green Road Brush Dump takes brush and leaves from residents but no building materials. The Town does not say whether Waste Management accepts demolition debris on bag tickets, so call 207-634-2714 before loading a truck.

Do I need a permit to put a dumpster on a Fairfield street?

We could not find a dumpster-specific rule either way. Fairfield's Road Opening Ordinance requires a $50 Public Works permit for excavating or cutting pavement, and Section 10 says anyone permitted to occupy part of a street for building purposes must fence that area and light it at night. Neither the ordinance nor the Town's licenses page describes a permit for a container on the road. Call Public Works at 207-453-6551 before placing a roll-off on a Town street or sidewalk, get any approval in writing, and remember the November 1 to March 31 overnight parking ban for plowing.
