Residents can bring their approved electronics to Morningside Park for proper disposal.

Town Supervisor Kathy Rappaport emphasized the importance of community involvement in maintaining a clean and sustainable environment. "The Town of Fallsburg is committed to promoting the well-being of our community and protecting our natural surroundings. Our annual Fall Clean-Up event is a wonderful opportunity for residents to come together, beautify our town, and dispose of unwanted items responsibly. We encourage everyone to participate and take pride in the place we call home."
