Our Dumpster Rental Process
- Choose a dumpster size and rental period.
Select a dumpster that fits your project’s needs—enough space for waste without overpaying for extra room. Need help? Our experts can guide you! - Prepare for delivery
Set up a safe, accessible spot for your dumpster to ensure smooth drop-off and pickup.
✔ Choose a Stable Surface – Paved driveways, gravel, or open lots work best. Avoid grass, soft ground, or slopes.
✔ Check Overhead Clearance – Ensure 24 feet of vertical space free from tree branches, power lines, or structures.
✔ Provide 60 Feet of Straight Clearance – The truck needs a clear path in front of the drop-off spot—move vehicles or obstacles.
✔ Allow 10 Feet of Width – Ensure at least 10 feet of clearance for safe backing in. Tight space? Check street placement rules.
✔ Keep the Area Clear – For safety, keep children, pets, and bystanders away during delivery and pickup.
📞 Not sure if your spot works? Call us—we’ll help you find the best location! - Fill up your dumpster. Remember to stay within the weight limit of the dumpster you’ve rented to avoid overage fees.
- Schedule your collection. To ensure prompt pickup and avoid an additional fee, your dumpster must be accessible and only contain approved debris filled no higher than the container sidewalls.

What happens if I overfill my dumpster?
Overfilling your dumpster can lead to additional fees and safety hazards. We may refuse to haul the overfilled container until excess waste is removed.
