| How do I choose the right dumpster size? | Consider your project scope and debris type. When in doubt, go one size larger; it's more cost-effective than ordering a second dumpster. Our team can help you estimate based on your specific project during your free quote. Most residential cleanouts work well with 15-20 yard sizes, while roofing and construction typically need 20-30 yards. |
| What happens if I overload the dumpster? | Never fill past the top edge (fill line) of the container. Overloaded dumpsters cannot be safely transported and may result in additional fees or refusal of pickup. If you exceed your included tonnage, overage fees apply (typically $50-$100 per additional ton). We'll weigh the load and notify you of any overages with transparent pricing; no surprises. |
| What items are prohibited? | Hazardous materials are strictly prohibited and include: paint, chemicals, solvents, asbestos, fuel, oil, batteries, tires, propane tanks, medical waste, and certain electronics. We practice eco-friendly disposal and can guide you to proper disposal facilities for these items. Most household junk, construction debris, furniture, appliances (without refrigerants), and yard waste are perfectly fine. |
| Do I need a permit to place a dumpster? | On private property (driveway, yard): Usually no permit needed. On public street or right-of-way: You'll likely need a permit from your city or county. We can provide documentation and guidance for the permit application. Contact your local municipality for specific requirements and fees (typically $25-$100). |
| Where should I place the dumpster? | Choose a flat, hard surface like a driveway or parking lot. Ensure 14-16 feet of overhead clearance (watch for low-hanging wires, tree branches). Allow space for our truck to access and lift the container (approximately 60 feet of straight-line clearance). Avoid soft ground, grass, or slopes. We can place plywood boards underneath to protect surfaces if needed; just ask during booking! |
| How long can I keep the dumpster? | Standard rental periods are 7 days (included in base price), but we offer flexible scheduling for your convenience. Need it for a weekend project? We can do 3 days. Large renovation taking weeks? Monthly rentals available at discounted rates. Want to extend? Simply call us before your pickup date; extensions are easy and affordable. |
| How quickly can you deliver? | We offer same-day delivery when you call before noon (subject to availability). Next-day delivery is almost always available. We also provide flexible scheduling; book in advance for specific future dates. Weekend deliveries available. Our fast and reliable delivery service means you won't wait around; we provide delivery windows and stick to them. |
| Will the dumpster damage my property? | Our experienced drivers take care to protect your property. Dumpsters have weight, so some minor impressions in asphalt or soft ground may occur (similar to heavy delivery trucks). We recommend placing plywood boards under the dumpster on finished driveways or sensitive surfaces; we're happy to provide or place these for you. Avoid grass or soft soil to prevent rutting. |
| What if I'm not sure about the weight? | Each size includes specific tonnage (see table above). Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, brick, or roofing shingles add up fast; consider our 10-Yard Lowboy which is designed for heavy loads. Light debris like furniture, wood, or drywall rarely exceed weight limits. Not sure? Call us for a free consultation; we'll help you estimate based on your project materials. |
