Can a dumpster be placed on the Grass or Lawn?
We place dumpsters typically on solid surfaces such as Driveway's & Parking Lots (Asphalt or Concrete) Sometimes we can accommodate placement on grass or lawns in some cases, but be aware dumpsters are extremely heavy and can sink based on weather conditions and soil conditions as well as the materials being used in the dumpsters. Please contact our office at the time of your booking for lawn placement accommodation.
How long can we rent a dumpster for?
We feature both long-term and short-term dumpster rentals. Our regular bookings include up to 7 days. If you need additional time, you can request that at the time of booking up to 30 days. Each additional day past our included 7 days is an extra $10 per day.
What if I need more time or need to extend my dumpster rental?
Give our office a call, while we can most likely extend your dumpster rental if needed, sometimes dependent on scheduling that may not be possible so it's best to check with our office and give as much notice as possible.
Can a dumpster be rented for a long-term project?
Yes, we offer long-term dumpster rentals beyond 30 days if needed. Please give our office a call 716-747-3333 for additional details.
Can I rent more than 1 dumpster at a time?
You certainly can; we can accommodate multiple dumpsters for larger projects if needed. Contact our office at 716-747-3333 to discuss.
Do I need a permit to rent a dumpster?
Permits are only required when a dumpster is placed on public property, like on a public street. A dumpster in your driveway or parking lot doesn't generally need a permit.
