Do I need to be present for dumpster delivery or pickup?

Not necessarily. Just ensure the drop-off location is clear and accessible. We’ll follow your placement instructions.

How much space is needed for delivery?

We recommend at least 60 feet of straight, unobstructed space with a clearance height of 14 feet for safe delivery.

Unless otherwise arranged, pickup occurs automatically at the end of your rental period. Contact us if you need to extend or schedule early pickup.

What can I put in the dumpster?

You can dispose of household junk, construction debris, yard waste, wood, drywall, and non-hazardous renovation materials.

What items are not allowed in the dumpster?

We do not accept hazardous waste, wet paint, chemicals, tires, batteries, propane tanks, or asbestos.

What should I do with prohibited items?

Contact your local waste authority for proper disposal methods, or ask us for a referral to an appropriate recycling or disposal centre.

Weight Limits and Loading

What are the typical weight limits for each dumpster size?

Limits vary by size:

  • 10–15 yard: 2–3 tons
  • 20 yard: 3–4 tons
  • 30–40 yard: 4–6 tons
  • Exceeding these limits may result in extra charges.

How should I load the dumpster properly?

Distribute weight evenly, avoid overfilling above the top edge, and use walk-in doors when available for safer loading and unloading.

What happens if I exceed the weight limit?

You’ll be charged an overage fee, usually billed per extra ton. We’ll inform you of the rate in your quote.

Permits and Regulations

Do I need a permit to rent a dumpster?

Not if it’s placed on private property. If it’s on public land, such as a street or sidewalk, a permit may be required by your local municipality.

Who is responsible for getting the permit?

The customer is responsible for obtaining permits, but we’ll help guide you through the process and provide documentation if needed.

What if I don’t get a permit when one is required?

You could be fined or asked to move the dumpster. It’s always best to confirm permit needs before delivery.

We can arrange multiple dumpster deliveries for large projects, just let us know your scope and timeline.

Can you accommodate tight driveways or tricky locations?

Yes, our experienced drivers can often navigate narrow spaces. Let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
