Extra Charges

Prohibited Items

The following materials are never allowed in a roll off dumpster, no matter where you live. These prohibited items may cause fires, damage the landfill or dumpster, or need to be processed separately from your typical household and construction debris to ensure everyone's safety.

Car battery icon

Car Batteries

Car batteries, as well as lithium batteries, cannot go in a dumpster because they can leak harmful chemicals. Take old car batteries to a local recycler or auto shop.

Tire icon

Tires

Most landfills don't accept tires because they can trap gases and take a long time to decompose. Tires can also float to the top of the landfill, harming the landfill's structure. Contact your local municipality, an auto parts store or tire dealership for disposal.

Railroad ties icon

Railroad Ties

Materials like railroad ties and telephone poles are treated with harmful wood preservatives and aren't allowed in our dumpsters.

Hot water tank icon

Hot Water Tanks

Hot water tanks are not accepted in any dumpster because they can contain harmful gases that increase the risk of explosion. Other hot water heater disposal options include selling, scrapping or donating.

Ink drops icon

Inks & Resins

Inks and resins used in pens and printers can damage equipment and stain the interior of dumpsters. These are best disposed of through recycling centers or retailers with drop-off services.

Paint can icon

Paint and Lacquers

Full or partially full cans of wet paint cannot go in a dumpster, including paint thinners, lacquers or wood stains. However, in most areas, you can dispose of dry latex paint as long as you wrap the sealed can in a plastic bag.

Full list: what you can and can't put in a dumpster.

We offer same-day delivery for orders placed by 10 AM, subject to availability. Otherwise, we guarantee next-day delivery for all orders. During peak seasons, we recommend booking 2-3 days in advance to ensure you get your preferred delivery date.

Our dumpsters can accept most household and construction debris, including furniture, appliances, yard waste, flooring, drywall, and general trash. Prohibited items include hazardous waste (paint, oil, chemicals), tires, batteries, refrigerators with freon, and certain electronics. Please contact us if you're unsure about specific items.

Our standard rental period is 7 days, which is included in the quoted price. If you need the dumpster for a longer period, we offer extensions at a rate of $35 per day. Just let us know in advance if you'll need additional time.

Dumpsters can be placed on driveways, parking lots, construction sites, or any flat, solid surface with adequate clearance. We cannot place dumpsters on steep inclines or soft surfaces where the truck cannot safely access. Some municipalities require permits for street placement, which we can help arrange.

Each dumpster size has a specific weight limit included in the price. If you exceed this limit, overage fees of $175 per ton will apply. We'll weigh the dumpster at our facility and notify you of any additional charges. To avoid overage fees, please let us know what you'll be disposing of, and we can recommend the appropriate size.

You don't need to be present for delivery or pickup as long as we have clear instructions on where to place the dumpster. However, being present for delivery ensures the dumpster is placed exactly where you want it. For pickup, just make sure the dumpster is accessible and not blocked by vehicles or debris.

We accept all major credit cards, checks, and cash. For business accounts, we also offer invoicing options with approved credit. Payment is typically required at the time of delivery, though we can arrange payment upon pickup for established customers.
