Waste Management is contracted to provide weekly waste pick-up for Village residents at no cost. Green roll-out carts are provided for garbage pick-up. Residents are asked to place carts at the curb before 6:00 am on Thursday morning. It is permissible to put your cart at the curb the night before; however, we ask that you do not leave carts at the curb for an extended period of time. A missing cart, a missed pick-up or other problems should be reported to the Village Administrator/Clerk who will work with Waste Management to solve the problem. Please report missed pick-ups as soon as possible and only if your waste was placed at the curb timely.

Fire Prevention
The Richfield-Misenheimer Fire Department provides emergency services to a primary response district of approximately thirty three square miles that includes areas within Stanly, Cabarrus and Rowan Counties as well as the municipalities of The Village of Misenheimer and Town of Richfield. The department was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in Dec. 1955 with the combined efforts of community groups, businesses and individuals that saw the need for a local community fire department.
Over the years the department has strived to provide for the best service possible in a proactive way to those within the community. Currently the department operates out of one station located on west Church Street in Richfield with around thirty volunteers and a paid part time staff to help cover incident response during the weekdays while the volunteers are working their full time jobs.
