Common Questions We Get Asked

We understand that you may have questions about our services and the dumpster rental process. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we receive:

What size dumpsters do you offer, and how do I know which size I need?

We offer a range of dumpster sizes to accommodate various project needs, typically including 10, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yard options. The right size for you depends on the nature and scale of your project. As a general guide:

• 10-yard dumpsters are suitable for small cleanouts or minor renovation projects.
• 20-yard dumpsters work well for medium-sized projects like garage cleanouts or small kitchen remodels.
• 30-yard dumpsters are ideal for larger home renovations or construction projects.
• 40-yard dumpsters are best for major construction or commercial projects.

Our team is always happy to discuss your specific needs and recommend the most appropriate size for your project.

How long can I keep the dumpster?

Our standard rental period is typically 7 days, but we understand that projects can vary in duration. We offer flexible rental periods to accommodate your needs. Whether you need the dumpster for a weekend cleanout or a month-long renovation, we can work with you to determine the best rental duration. If you need to extend your rental period, simply contact us, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request.

What items are prohibited from being placed in the dumpster?

While our dumpsters can handle a wide variety of waste, there are certain items that we cannot accept due to environmental regulations and safety concerns. Prohibited items typically include:

• Hazardous materials (paint, oil, chemicals, asbestos)
• Batteries and electronics
• Tires
• Appliances containing freon (refrigerators, air conditioners)
• Liquids of any kind
• Medical waste
• Flammable or explosive materials

If you’re unsure about a specific item, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to provide guidance.

How much does it cost to rent a dumpster?

The cost of renting a dumpster varies depending on factors such as the size of the dumpster, the duration of the rental, the type of waste, and your location within Salem. We pride ourselves on offering competitive, transparent pricing. To get an accurate quote for your specific needs, we recommend contacting us directly. We’ll provide a clear, all-inclusive price with no hidden fees.

Do I need a permit to have a dumpster placed on my property?

In most cases, if the dumpster is placed on your private property, such as your driveway, you don’t need a permit. However, if you need to place the dumpster on a public street or sidewalk, a permit may be required from the City of Salem. We can advise you on the permit requirements based on your specific situation and can even assist with the permit application process if needed. It’s always best to check with us and your local authorities to ensure compliance with all regulations.
