Most trash is allowed in the dumpster. As stated above, heavy materials (dirt, concrete, brick, etc.) are relegated to 20-yard containers and must not be mixed with trash or other materials. Yard waste is acceptable in containers but also cannot be mixed with trash or other materials. It is illegal to mix trash with yard waste. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in additional charges.

You CANNOT put these items in the dumpster:

  • Paint
  • Tires
  • Appliances with freon
  • Flammable, toxic, or other hazardous materials

If a driver finds these materials in a dumpster, they can be left onsite or additional charges may be added to your bill. The maximum weight of the container cannot exceed 10 tons; dumpsters that are too heavy and unsafe can either be rejected by the driver, resulting in a failed trip fee, or will result in overage fees of $55/ton for each ton over 10. Please see our terms and conditions for further details.
