Most common materials are accepted, including:

Delivery & Pickup Dumpster Rental FAQs
Where can you place my dumpster?
Dumpsters are commonly placed on driveways or private property. We can also place dumpsters at:
- Construction and renovation sites
- Commercial properties
- Parking areas with proper access
We ensure safe, level placement for easy loading.
Will the dumpster damage my driveway?
We take care during placement, but if you are concerned, placing plywood or boards under the wheels can provide added protection.
How full can I fill my dumpster?
All debris must remain below the top rim of the dumpster. Overfilled dumpsters cannot be legally hauled. Even weight distribution helps ensure safe pickup.

If the dumpster is placed on private property, a permit is usually not required. If it will be placed on a public street or sidewalk, you may need a temporary permit from the City of Winchester. Our team can help guide you through the process.

Yes. We work with approved local facilities that prioritize recycling whenever possible, including metal, concrete, and yard debris.
