FAQs
Can I rent a dumpster myself?
Yes, just follow our streamlined five-step process:
- Reach out to tell us about your project.
- Select the size you need or ask our opinion.
- Select a delivery date that works for you.
- Load your waste when the bin arrives.
- Request pickup online or by phone.
What is the dumpster delivery window?
Five business days is our standard time frame for placement. However, we're flexible and may be able to accommodate earlier delivery. Ask about our earliest drop-off date when you reach out.
How does dumpster rental pricing work?
We bundle all the prices associated with your dumpster rental — like delivery, pickup, landfill fees, a covered weight limit and generous rental period — into an upfront quote. That way, you can budget efficiently and there are no surprises on your final invoice.
Do I need to get a permit from the city?
If you plan on placing the dumpster on your own property, no permit is needed. If you want the bin in a public right-of-way, like the street or sidewalk, you'll need to reach out to the Columbus Permit Department.
Where does my trash go?
The majority of trash in Columbus is taken to the SWACO Franklin County Sanitary Landfill, located at 3851 London-Groveport Road in Grove City. Other nearby landfills include the Fayette County Landfill and the Frank Road C&D Landfill.
Does the landfill charge me for prohibited items?
Yes. When the landfill sorts your waste, they will discover any prohibited items. We'll then send you a second invoice with the prohibited item charge.
What items are allowed in a dumpster?
We accept household junk, such as old furniture and appliances, and yard waste, including tree stumps. We can also deliver front load dumpsters to accommodate everyday waste needs at your business. Accepted items for roll off and front load containers will vary by dumpster size and location.
Why is a dumpster rental convenient?
A dumpster rental allows you to clean at your own pace without the pressure of deadlines or coordinating with strangers. The dumpster will be placed in a convenient spot to help streamline your cleanup. There's no need to pause progress and wait for curbside collection or take trips back and forth to the landfill yourself.
