Clear the driveway or placement area before the truck arrives.
Load accepted household junk, renovation debris, and yard waste below the top rim.
Call for pickup when finished or request an extension before the rental period ends.
Permits and HOA Rules
Driveway placement usually does not require a permit. Check HOA rules and local permit requirements if the dumpster must sit on the street.

Protect your driveway
We place wooden boards under the wheels to prevent driveway damage. Let us know if you have concerns about your surface.
Check HOA rules
Some HOAs have rules about dumpsters. Check before ordering to avoid fines or forced removal.
Plan for permits
Placing a dumpster on the street (not your driveway) usually requires a city permit. We can guide you through this.
Don't overfill
Debris cannot extend above the top edge. This is for safe transport — overfilled containers can't go on public roads.

When to Rent a Dumpster

Homeowner FAQs
What size dumpster is best for a home project?
A 10-yard dumpster is best for small cleanouts and bathroom remodels. A 20-yard dumpster is the best all-around residential size for larger cleanouts, kitchen remodels, flooring, moving cleanouts, and estate cleanups.
What can I put in a residential dumpster?
Most household junk, furniture, mattresses, flooring, carpet, drywall, lumber, cabinets, yard waste where allowed, roofing shingles, and non-hazardous renovation debris can go in a residential dumpster.
What items are prohibited?
Paint, chemicals, batteries, tires, asbestos, propane tanks, fuel, oil, hazardous waste, and appliances with refrigerants require special disposal and should not be loaded in the dumpster.
Do I need a permit for a residential dumpster?
You usually do not need a permit when the dumpster is placed in your driveway or on private property. Street, sidewalk, alley, or right-of-way placement may require a city permit.
Should I rent a dumpster or use junk removal?
Rent a dumpster when you want time to sort, clean, and load over several days. Junk removal may be better for a small pile when you want labor included and everything removed in one visit.
