Search Plymouth Phone Directory

Plymouth phone directory listings cover the county seat of Plymouth County and one of the most historic towns in Massachusetts. About 61,000 people live in Plymouth, and the town runs its own set of departments with public phone lines for residents and visitors. You can search for phone numbers tied to town hall, the police and fire departments, the town clerk, and other local offices from this page. Plymouth phone directory data here comes from the town's official website and state-level sources, so the numbers stay current.

Plymouth Town Hall Contacts

Plymouth Town Hall is at 26 Court Street and serves as the center of town government. Most departments have offices here or nearby. The main town hall line is (508) 747-1620. If you are not sure which office to call, start with that number and staff can point you in the right direction.

The Plymouth town clerk handles vital records, business certificates, dog licenses, and election services. You can reach the clerk at (508) 322-3433. The clerk's office keeps the same hours as town hall, so plan visits for the morning if you are going on a Friday since they close at noon. Birth, death, and marriage records go through the clerk but are handled separately from general public records requests.

Plymouth runs as a town, not a city. It uses the traditional New England town meeting form of government. That means some processes work a bit different than in a city like Brockton. The Board of Selectmen oversees town business, and many decisions go through town meeting votes. For day-to-day questions, the town manager's office is your best call.

Plymouth Department Phone Numbers

Plymouth has a solid set of town departments, each with its own phone line. The numbers below cover the offices that residents use most. These are main lines for each department. If you need a specific person, call the department and ask to be put through.

The Plymouth Police Department takes non-emergency calls at (508) 746-2211. The fire department shares the same business line at (508) 746-2211. Both departments are busy, so be patient during peak hours. For all emergencies, dial 911. The police department has its own Records Access Officer, so if you need police records specifically, that request goes through the police department rather than town hall.

Other key Plymouth phone numbers to know include the assessor's office, which handles property valuations and has GIS maps on the town website. The tax collector takes calls about tax bills and payments. Public works covers roads, water, and sewer. The recreation department manages parks and youth programs.

How to Search Plymouth Phone Listings

You can also call the main town hall number at (508) 747-1620 and ask to be transferred. The town website also has an online directory that lists staff names and email addresses for many departments.

Plymouth is the county seat, so several county-level offices are based right in town. The Plymouth County Registry of Deeds at 50 Obery Street handles all land records for the county.

The town has 10 business days to respond to a public records request. Copy fees are $0.05 per page for black and white. The first two hours of search time are free. After that, the town can charge up to $25 per hour. Electronic records that already exist in digital form are provided at no charge. Most routine requests, like meeting minutes or permit records, come back quickly.

Keep in mind that Plymouth has three separate Records Access Officers. The main town RAO covers most departments. The police department has its own RAO for police-specific records. The school department also runs its own system. Make sure you send your request to the right office to avoid delays.
