Frequently Asked Questions
Can I throw construction debris and heavy materials in the dumpster?
Yes, our roll-off dumpsters are designed to handle construction debris, including drywall, flooring, tile, and wood. For heavier materials like shingles or concrete, we may recommend a specific dumpster size to ensure compliance with landfill guidelines.
Do I need a permit to rent a roll-off dumpster?
In most cases, a permit isn’t required if the dumpster rental is placed in your driveway. However, if you plan to place it in the street or on public property, your neighborhood association and municipality may require a permit. We can help you understand local requirements and acquire permits if necessary.
What happens if I go over the weight limit?
Every rental includes a set tonnage allowance. If your waste exceeds that, additional charges may apply. Our team will let you know in advance what the weight limits are and how overages are calculated.
What can you put in a dumpster rental?
Our dumpsters accept a wide variety of non-hazardous materials, including:
-
Household junk (furniture, clothes, toys, etc.)
-
Construction debris (drywall, wood, flooring, roofing materials)
-
Yard waste (branches, shrubs, dirt in small amounts)
-
Appliances (without refrigerants)
We’ll walk you through what’s allowed based on your project. Items like paints, tires, batteries, and hazardous chemicals are typically restricted and may require special handling. Always ask if you’re unsure — we’re here to help.
What can’t I put in the dumpster?
For safety and environmental reasons, certain hazardous materials aren’t allowed in the roll-off dumpster. This includes paint, propane tanks, tires, batteries, and certain electronics. If you’re unsure about an item, contact us. We can help direct you to local recycling or safe disposal options when needed.
