Not a smooth experience
My initial problem below was eventually remedied. The dumpster was placed in the wrong location on Friday, they said they would move it on Monday, they showed up to move it on Wednesday morning. When I first called I asked for a 20 foot dumpster. When I described the job I was told I should get a 10 foot, I decided on the 15 because the 10 didn't seem like enough. In the end I definitely needed the 20 foot but to get the 15 foot dumped and returned was an extra $400 so now I have a completely full dumpster and everything else is going in bags. Besides the first person I spoke with who gave me the bad advice and the person who aggressively tried to make me pay for their mistake I spoken to many people at dumpster.com who have been very kind and helpful. If I had gotten the 20 foot dumpster I initially wanted and they had put it in the right place it would have been 5star service but it's been a huge hassle having to call or text multiple times a day for almost a week now. Original post that was eventually remedied: Trying to charge for their mistake. I was supposed to have a dumpster delivered in my driveway. The drivers placed it on the street instead (which I would need a permit for). Parker, from Dumpsters.com is telling me there was a car in the driveway and they had to place it on the street because they need up to 60 feet to place the dumpster. The car is 72 feet away from the end of the driveway. They want to charge me $195 because their drivers put it in the wrong place. The way Parker is communicating with me is belittling. Addendum: the driver who eventually moved the dumpster was awesome and very skilled. He used less than half of my driveway to get it into the right spot.

FAQs
What are the steps to rent a dumpster?
We've created a streamlined five-step process for renting a dumpster:
- Reach out and tell us about your project.
- Decide on a dumpster size.
- Schedule delivery.
- Load the debris on your timeline.
- Reach out for pickup when your cleanup is complete.
Can I request an exact delivery time?
While you can request a delivery date, we are unable to schedule delivery for a specific time due to traffic delays and lines at the landfill.
Are dumpster rentals budget-friendly?
Our bundled prices make budgeting for a dumpster rental simple. We provide you an upfront price that includes the costs of delivery, pickup, disposal, a covered weight limit and your rental period and combines them into one rate. This lets you budget with confidence since you'll know your final price when you order.
Do I need a permit to rent a dumpster?
You won't need a permit if you have the dumpster placed on your property.
If you need the dumpster placed on the street or another public property, contact the city of Cedar Rapids to apply for a Right-of-Way Permit.
Where do you take my trash?
Trash in Cedar Rapids is typically taken to Cedar Rapids/Linn County Solid Waste Agency, located at 1954 County Home Road in Marion.
What are prohibited items?
Prohibited items are any materials that a landfill will not accept, often due to environmental restrictions. For example, nationwide laws prevent flammable, toxic or hazardous waste from entering landfills. Additionally, each landfill can decide it won't accept other items. We'll talk through any of these restrictions with you when you place an order.
To learn more about prohibited items, give us a call at 319-382-3446 .
What dumpster size is most popular?
Our most rented dumpster size is a 20 yard roll off container. This size is great for a wide range of projects and accepts most waste types, from household junk to heavy debris, like cement and dirt.
How can I avoid overage charges?
Your rental agreement includes a generous tonnage. However, if you exceed that weight, the landfill typically charges a rate per ton. We’ll help you choose the right dumpster size to handle your debris when you get in touch.
