FAQs
What's included in the cost when I rent a dumpster?
The price of a roll off dumpster rental covers delivery, pickup, a set weight allowance and the rental period, along with local disposal fees. Your total cost will vary depending on where you’re located, the size of the container and the type of debris you’re disposing of.
Do I need any permits to rent a dumpster?
You don't need a permit if you'd like to place the dumpster in your driveway. However, a permit is usually required if you want to place the container on a public right-of-way, such as the street or sidewalk. Contact the city of Oakland to apply for an Obstruction Permit.
What can I expect after I order?
Your dumpster can arrive anytime on the day you’ve scheduled for delivery. You don’t need to be there when it’s dropped off, but make sure the spot is clear of vehicles, gates or other obstacles. To adjust your delivery date, order another container or arrange a pickup, visit our Service Dashboard.
Are there any items I can't toss in my dumpster?
Flammable, toxic and hazardous waste is prohibited in our dumpsters for the safety of you and the environment. There may be additional restrictions based on your location in Oakland and the container you rent. We'll share any specific prohibited items when you reach out.

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.
