FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What size dumpster do I need?
    Most home cleanouts and remodels fit a 15 or 20-yard container; heavy debris like concrete, dirt and shingles goes in a 10 or 15-yard because of weight; renovations and new builds take a 30 or 40-yard. Describe the job and we size it on the phone, or see our dumpster sizes page.
  • How much does dumpster rental cost in Lancaster?
    We quote one flat price up front based on the container size and the material. It includes delivery, the rental period, pickup and a disposal weight allowance; the only possible extra is the per-ton overage rate we state on the same quote. Call (717) 621-3603 for a number in one call.
  • Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Lancaster?
    Not on your own driveway or private lot. In a City of Lancaster street, City Code § 285-45 requires a right-of-way permit from the Bureau of Engineering (120 North Duke Street, 717-291-4764): $75, good for 90 days, with the container no more than five feet tall, covered, on plywood, 20 feet from a hydrant and 25 feet from an intersection. Our permit guide has the details.
  • What can’t go in the dumpster?
    Pennsylvania keeps TVs, computers and monitors out of landfills and the trash, bars whole tires and lead-acid batteries, will not landfill a load that is mostly leaf waste, and never takes free liquids or friable asbestos. Refrigerant appliances need the gas recovered first, and oil-based paint, chemicals and fluorescent lamps go to LCSWMA’s household hazardous waste facility. Our guide lists where each item goes.
  • How fast can you deliver?
    Call before noon and we can usually deliver the same afternoon across the City of Lancaster, Manheim Township and the closest townships. Otherwise, next day.
