• Beaver Falls is a city that contracts its collection out and then publishes nothing about it beyond a schedule lookup, which is itself the finding: there is no municipal bulky-item rule here to find. The city's whole trash page is one sentence - "Enter your address at the link below to determine your trash and recycling pick up day" - posted July 5, 2024 under the heading "Valley Waste Trash & Recycling Schedule", pointing at Valley Waste Service's residential customer service page. Valley Waste is a Beaver Falls company, at 261 Wallace Run Road, Beaver Falls, PA 15010, 724-843-9373, and it collects for several municipalities in the county. Its residential page is written for all of them at once and names no community, so nothing on it is a Beaver Falls rule. That page prices exactly one category of large item and it is not bedding: of refrigerators and air conditioners it says "These items can be disposed of for an additional pre-paid fee", that "Items must be professionally tagged that freon is removed", and "Please contact us before setting these types of items out for collection." No mattress, box spring, furniture or general bulky-item term appears on it, with or without a price. A resident of Beaver Falls therefore has no published allowance, no published fee and no published wrapping rule from either the city or its hauler. Two things in the city are worth knowing even so: Beaver County's own recycling center sits just outside the city line in Brady's Run Park, and the Beaver County Habitat for Humanity ReStore is in the city at 47 Bridge Street, 724-843-1630. Source Not confirmed: Neither the City of Beaver Falls nor Valley Waste publishes any bulky-item, large-item or mattress rule for Beaver Falls: no allowance, no fee, no wrapping requirement, no booking route. This is an absence of published terms, not a refusal. Not confirmed: The city publishes no refuse ordinance section, no contract term and no refuse rate on its site. Not confirmed: Valley Waste's residential page is regional and names no municipality, so its one priced item - the pre-paid freon appliance fee, whose amount it also does not state - cannot be attributed to Beaver Falls specifically. Not confirmed: The Beaver County Habitat ReStore at 47 Bridge Street publishes no donation criteria list of its own, so whether it takes a mattress could not be established and no refusal can be recorded.
