Parking and permits

Falmouth rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.

Key rule: In Falmouth, a dumpster needs a $25 Fire Prevention permit unless it is delivered and removed within a single business day.

Falmouth's Fire Prevention office issues $25 dumpster permits in person, online or by mail, and a permit isn't needed for a dumpster delivered and removed within one business day. An inspector checks that the dumpster sits at least 10 feet from the building and doesn't block exits or fire operations. In winter, the DPW asks residents to park in driveways or off-road before storms, and residential side streets are the last roads plowed.
