Frequently Asked Questions
What size dumpster do I need for my project?
The right size depends on the scope of your job. Smaller projects like garage cleanouts often need a 10–15 yard dumpster, while major renovations or construction sites may require a 30–40 yard container. Our team can help you choose.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
Rental periods vary, but most are offered for a set number of days. Extensions are usually available for an additional fee.
Can I get a dumpster the same day I order it?
Yes, in many cases we offer same-day delivery, depending on availability and your location.
What materials are allowed in the dumpster?
Most household junk, construction debris, furniture, yard waste, roofing shingles, and non-hazardous materials are accepted.
What items are not allowed?
Hazardous waste, paint, chemicals, tires, car batteries, medical waste, flammable items, and asbestos are not permitted.
Do I need a permit to place a dumpster at my property?
If the dumpster is placed on private property (like a driveway), no permit is usually required. However, placing it on a public street or sidewalk may require a city or county permit.
How much weight can I put in the dumpster?
Each dumpster size has a specific weight limit. Our team will explain the limits for your container so you avoid overage fees.
How should I load the dumpster?
Distribute materials evenly, avoid overfilling past the top edge, and load heavier items first for stability.
Do I need to be present for delivery or pickup?
Not necessarily, as long as the drop-off area is accessible and instructions are clear.
How do I schedule pickup when I’m finished?
Simply call our office or schedule online, and we’ll arrange prompt removal.
Can a dumpster be used for yard waste or landscaping projects?
Yes, we accept most yard debris such as branches, grass, and dirt, depending on local disposal regulations.
Do you recycle the materials collected?
Yes, we prioritize eco-friendly disposal and recycle whenever possible.
What if I fill the dumpster but still have more to throw away?
You can request an additional dumpster or arrange a swap-out where we empty and return the container.
