- A solid, level surface for placement (asphalt, concrete, or compact gravel)
- Clear access to the placement site, move vehicles, trailers, or obstacles beforehand
We cannot deliver if access is blocked. A trip fee may apply for unsuccessful delivery attempts.
Where should I have my dumpster placed?
Dumpsters should be placed on solid, level surfaces such as asphalt, concrete, or gravel.
Placing on grass, dirt, or sand is not recommended, as the bin may become stuck or cause damage.
We are not responsible for any surface damage caused by the dumpster or delivery truck.
Can I move the dumpster once it’s placed?
No. For safety reasons, customers must not move, push, lift, pull, or alter the dumpster after placement.
If you need it moved, call us, we’ll reposition it for you.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster?
In most cases, a permit is not required if the dumpster is placed on private property.
If you need to place it on a public road, alley, or sidewalk, you may need a permit from your local municipality. Contact us, we can help guide you through the process.
What materials are NOT allowed in the dumpster?
All dumpsters are subject to local landfill allowed and prohibited items.
Please confirm details with the landfill in your area.
To protect our environment and comply with local regulations, the following materials are also prohibited:
- Batteries – No lithium, car, rechargeable, or household batteries

Can I fill the dumpster over the top?
No. For safety and transport regulations, dumpsters must not be overfilled past the top rim of the bin.
If materials extend above the rim, pickup will be refused and extra charges may apply.
