Are there hidden fees?
We quote a flat rate up front. Extra charges can apply for overweight loads, banned items, or keeping the dumpster past your rental period, and we explain these before you book.
Is it cheaper to rent a dumpster or go to the dump?
For a small amount of debris, hauling it yourself may cost less. When you have several truckloads, a dumpster can save multiple trips and the time involved in hauling everything yourself.
Delivery and Pickup
Do you offer same-day dumpster delivery in Green Bay?
Delivery is scheduled around your project timeline. Call (920) 876-6287 as early as you can, and we will tell you what is possible.
Where do you deliver?

Do I need to be home for delivery or pickup?
No. Just tell us exactly where you want the dumpster placed and share any gate codes or access details ahead of time.
Where can I put a dumpster?
Most people place it on a driveway or a private lot. The spot needs to be flat, with clear space overhead and room for the truck. We recommend boards under the edges to protect your driveway.
What are your hours?
We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Rental Period and Swaps
How long can I rent a dumpster for?
Most rentals include a 7-day period. If you need it longer, call before your time is up and we will arrange an extension for a small daily fee.
What happens if I fill the dumpster before my project is done?
Call us and we will swap it for an empty one, subject to scheduling availability.
Can I get the dumpster picked up early?
Yes. Call us when you are done and we will schedule the pickup.
Weight Limits and What Goes In
What happens if my dumpster is overweight or overloaded?
Every size has a weight limit included in the rental price. If you go over, an additional charge applies based on the extra weight, and we tell you the amount before you are billed.
What materials are not allowed in a dumpster?
Paint, chemicals, batteries, tires, propane tanks, and electronics cannot go in a rental dumpster. Ask us about hazardous items before loading them.
Can I put concrete, brick, or dirt in a dumpster?
Yes, but these are very heavy, so they often need their own dumpster, a lower fill line, or different pricing. Mention it when you book.
Can I put roofing shingles in a dumpster?
Yes. Shingles are heavy, so a dumpster of shingles can hit its weight limit before it looks full. Tell us your roof size and layers when you book.
Can I put furniture, mattresses, or appliances in a dumpster?
Furniture and most household junk are fine. Some items, such as mattresses and appliances with refrigerant, may have special rules. Ask us before loading.
What are common dumpster rental mistakes?
Choosing a size that is too small, overloading with heavy materials like concrete, and stacking debris above the top rail of the dumpster. When in doubt, size up.
Permits and Rules
Do I need a dumpster permit in Green Bay?
A dumpster on your own driveway or private property usually does not need a permit. If it must sit on a public street or right-of-way, check with the city or village first.
Can you place a dumpster on the street?
It depends on local rules. Check with your city or village for a permit before placing it on a public street.
Do you provide dumpsters to contractors and businesses?
Yes. We rent to homeowners, roofers, builders, property managers, and businesses for one-time and repeat jobs.

Wisconsin Rules, Loading and Overweight Fees
Is yard waste allowed in a dumpster in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin bans yard waste from landfills, including grass clippings, leaves, garden debris, and brush under six inches in diameter. Ask us before loading it, and keep it out of a general debris dumpster unless we have confirmed it is accepted.
Can I throw old appliances or electronics in a dumpster?
Not without checking first. Wisconsin bans electronics and major appliances from landfills, so they need to be recycled. Call us before loading a washer, fridge, TV, or computer.
Can I put cardboard, glass, or recyclables in a rental dumpster?
Wisconsin law bans many recyclables from landfills, including corrugated cardboard, glass containers, aluminum and steel cans, newspapers, office paper, and plastic bottles. Keep them out of the dumpster and take them to recycling.
Can I put used oil, oil filters, tires, or batteries in a dumpster?
No. Waste oil, used oil filters, tires, and lead-acid batteries are banned from Wisconsin landfills, along with paint, chemicals, and propane tanks, which are not allowed in a rental dumpster.
How much weight is included with a dumpster rental?
Weight limits are set by dumpster size, and across the industry they typically fall between 1 and 5 tons. Ask us for the exact included tons for the size you want before you book.
Why did I get an overage charge after the dumpster was picked up?
Dumpsters are weighed at the disposal facility after pickup, so any charge for weight over the limit shows up on the final bill. The best protection is to estimate your load before you book and tell us about heavy materials.
Can a dumpster damage my driveway?
It can if the dumpster is overloaded or set on uneven ground. Keep the load within the weight limit, place it on a flat surface, and lay plywood or boards under the edges for extra protection.
How full can I fill a dumpster?
Keep debris at or below the fill line. Material sticking out of the top or hanging over the sides cannot be hauled until it is removed.
What do I need to do before pickup day?
Keep the area around the dumpster clear of cars and obstructions, and make sure the load is below the fill line. You do not need to be home.
