FAQ

Welcome to our FAQ for roll-off dumpsters. Here you will find our company’s and services’ most frequently asked questions. This section also contains answers to the most frequently asked questions regarding dumpster container rentals.

What is the dumpster rental process?

The dumpster rental procedure is actually rather straightforward. First, you contact the dumpster rental provider and inform them of the location and desired delivery date. The dumpster is then delivered on the date you specified. Then, you fill the dumpster with junk and other waste from your location, residence, or job site. When you are finished with your dumpster, you must call the office to request removal.

This is the most frequent inquiry we receive. Oftentimes, it is difficult to determine how large a dumpster you would need, especially when a minor project ends up becoming rather enormous. Here at the Providence Dumpster Rentals Center, we provide a selection of dumpster sizes to fit projects of all kinds. Visit our dumpster size selector guide to view all of our available dumpster sizes.

Still unsure of the ideal size for you? Call us and one of our staff will be delighted to explore your options with you.

What can be placed in a dumpster?

All sorts of objects can be placed in dumpsters. Dumpsters are utilised by roofing and construction organisations for the disposal of roofing shingles and other building debris. It is usual in the spring and fall to rent a dumpster for yard garbage. Also common are dumpster rentals for house renovations requiring the removal of drywall, tile, and other waste. The majority of domestic waste can also be placed in the dumpster.

Batteries, glue, oil, paint, tyres, and anything combustible or explosive are prohibited from being placed in the dumpster.

How full should the dumpster be?

The rule while loading a dumpster is to maintain a level top. When everything is packed equally, the dumpster will have more space and the disposal process will be safer.

How much does a dumpster rental cost?

On our website, you can enter your zip code for a free immediate quote. The cost of renting a dumpster is determined by the dumpster’s size and rental duration. Each dumpster size has a rental time and a maximum weight capacity.

What is a dumpster that rolls off?

Roll-off dumpsters are distinct from traditional dumpsters and are frequently used for home renovation and building jobs. Roll-off containers are rectangular with open tops rather than lids. They come in various sizes. The most common dumpster sizes are 10, 20, 30, or 40 cubic yards.

What would I do with a dumpster?

Whether you’re cleaning up around the house or through a major renovation, renting a dumpster can help you do the work more efficiently. When you rent a dumpster, you have the flexibility to complete the work at your own pace and on your own schedule. Costs are also your responsibility when you rent a dumpster. Once the dumpster is collected, it is the company’s responsibility to dispose of your junk in a legal and responsible manner.

What If The Dumpster Causes Damage?

You acquire the dumpster at your own risk. Please be aware that the dumpsters and trucks are extremely heavy, therefore it is conceivable that they could cause harm to the area. We placed wood below the junk can when it was placed on the driveway. This protects the driveway usually always, but we are not responsible for any damage.

How can I rent a dumpster?

Simply make a simple phone call. Within minutes, our customer service professionals will assist you with selecting a dumpster size and placing your order.

What is the cost of a dumpster?

The cost of a dumpster depends on a number of variables, including the container’s size, the weight of the debris, the rental period’s duration, and any applicable taxes and fees. This implies that the exact cost of a dumpster varies based on location and the particulars of your purchase. We provide easy, flat-rate pricing on all of our dumpster sizes, so you’ll always know the whole cost in advance, regardless of where you are or how much you’re disposing of.

What can and can’t I put in a dumpster?

Use your dumpster to dispose of common household debris and construction debris. Flammable, toxic or otherwise hazardous materials are not allowed in our dumpsters. Learn more about what can be put in a dumpster.

Will my dumpster have a door?

Most of our dumpsters feature a door that can be opened to carry in items that are too large to toss over the side. The door is located on the end that rolls off the truck first. You’ll need at least eight feet of space in front of the dumpster to open the door completely.

Is there a right way to load a dumpster?

It’s best to load a dumpster as evenly as possible. This will allow you to fit more debris inside and help to ensure you don’t overload the dumpster. It’s also important to make sure that no items hang over the side or stick up over the top of the container, since this can make it dangerous for the hauler to pick up the dumpster. Please note that you may be charged an additional fee if your container is overfilled.

Do I need a permit for a dumpster?

You’ll only need to acquire a dumpster permit if you intend to have your container dropped off on a street or other public property. Our service representatives will be able to tell you if you’ll need a permit before we set up your order. Learn more about obtaining a permit for your dumpster.

Should I be home for delivery/pickup?

There’s no need to be present for delivery or pickup. On delivery and pickup day, just make sure the area where you want the dumpster placed is clear and not blocked by cars or anything else that may prevent us from accessing the spot. Please also be sure the dumpster is loaded properly, with nothing sticking up over the top or hanging over the sides.

Can a dumpster sit on an incline?

As long as the ground is even and the slope is less than a 15 percent grade, we can generally place a dumpster on an incline. A good test is whether a parking brake is needed for vehicles on your driveway: if a parking brake is needed, we cannot place a dumpster there. Be aware that it is always up to the driver’s discretion to determine whether your driveway presents a safety hazard.

Should I lay down plywood?

We don’t require you to lay down plywood or other materials where you want the dumpster placed. However, we do recommend it to help protect the surface from any scratches or scrapes.

How long are typical rental periods?

Usually, you can rent a dumpster for between 7 and 14 days. Depending on where you live, what’s available, and how much demand there is, you can usually extend your rental period for a low daily rate. Please also keep in mind that if you keep your roll-off dumpster longer than the time you were supposed to, you will be charged a fee for each extra day.

Can I order additional dumpsters?

If your dumpster gets full before your project is done, you can call our office to schedule a service to empty it and bring it back.  You can also order more dumpsters if the size and scope of your project changes.

How often will my junk be picked up?

We pick up once a week, every two weeks, or once a month. When you set up your rental, you can choose the best choice for your needs. If something changes during the time of your contract, all you have to do is call our office to change the time of your pickups.

What contract lengths do you offer?

When you rent a front-loading dumpster from us, we can work with you on the terms. This keeps you from being stuck in a typical 3- to 5-year contract.

Are there any extra features I can get?

You can order a lock bar for your front-loading dumpster to keep other people from using it. Both 2 yard and 4 yard dumpsters can be ordered with wheels to make them easier to move. Both of these features cost money, which will be spelled out in your contract and added as a line item to your monthly bill.

What size dumpster do I need?

Obviously, the size of the dumpster you’re going to need will depend on the size of your project. We offer 10, 15, 20 and 30 yard dumpsters. Recommendations are available on our website, or you can call our office and one of our friendly and experienced customer service representatives will be happy to help you reach a decision.    

How high can I load my dumpster?

When the dumpster is picked up the driver will put a tarp over the load for containment during transport. We ask that you don’t load any material above the top rails of the dumpster that will interfere with the tarp. Try to keep the load flat and distribute the weight as evenly as possible. If for any reason the dumpster is improperly loaded and cannot be transported safely, you will have to unload the dumpster to a safe level before we can remove it. Additional charges may be assessed.  

Is there anything I can’t put in a dumpster?

There are some items we cannot accept in our dumpsters. These include any items containing hazardous chemicals or other items that can cause damage to the container or landfill.
