DUMPSTER RENTALS

If the dumpster sits on your own property, like a driveway or yard, you usually do not need a permit. A permit is typically required when the container goes on a public street, sidewalk, or anywhere it could block public access. Rules and fees differ by location, so check with your city or county office in Lancaster, Ohio, usually public works or permitting, to confirm what applies. Our customer service team can often help you figure out the requirements and obtain a permit. For private placements, permits are rarely needed, but verifying with local authorities helps you avoid fines or delays.

A standard rental in Lancaster, Ohio covers delivery, pickup at the end of your term, disposal up to the stated weight limit, and a rental period that runs longer than many competitors offer. Extra charges can apply if you go over the weight limit, keep the dumpster longer, ask for same-day delivery, or dispose of items that need special handling. You will see the full pricing breakdown at checkout so everything is clear.

Yes. Safety and environmental rules prohibit certain materials, including hazardous waste such as paint, solvents, and chemicals, asbestos (only where permitted and with proper documentation), medical waste, batteries, tires, propane or fuel tanks, freon appliances unless drained, and some electronics like TVs and monitors. Local landfills may restrict other items too, so review the guidelines provided when you book. Putting prohibited items in the container can lead to extra fees or a refused haul. If you are unsure about something, ask before it goes in.

No. Once the delivery team sets the dumpster, it should stay put. Roll-offs are very heavy and need specialized equipment to lift and reposition safely. Trying to move one yourself can damage your property, the container, or nearby structures, and may break local safety rules. If you need it relocated, contact customer service to arrange a professional move. There may be a fee, but it ensures the dumpster is repositioned safely and within regulations.
