There is a possibility that damage may occur to your driveway, due to the weight of the truck, the dumpster and the contents you place in the dumpster. Indentations are possible in your yard, on your asphalt driveway, and scratches are possible on concrete or asphalt driveways. We recommend that you place multiple sheets of plywood either 2’x4’ or 4’x4’ on the driveway where the dumpster will be placed to minimize any damage from occurring. We are not liable for damages to driveways or yards. Please see our terms and conditions page.

Dumpster permits are typically only required when placing a dumpster on public property such as a street, easement, or sidewalk. Please contact your local government or public works department to determine exact permit requirements for your specific situation.

No. As long as you provide detailed directions on where the dumpster should be placed our experts can handle the rest. However, we always advise that customers be there during delivery whenever possible just to ensure the waste container is placed correctly.
