Des Moines
DUMPSTER RENTALS

No. Once the delivery team sets the container, it should stay put. Roll-offs are heavy and need special equipment to lift and reposition safely. Moving one yourself can damage your property, the dumpster, or nearby structures, and it may break local safety rules. If you need it relocated, call customer service to arrange a professional move. A fee may apply, but it keeps the placement safe and compliant.

Rentals are flexible and usually run from a few days up to a week or more, depending on your project. If you need extra time, extended periods are available, often at a daily or weekly rate. We tend to offer longer standard windows than many providers, and you can request more days if the work runs over. Share your timeline at booking so the rental matches your schedule, and contact customer service early if you need an extension.

If your container fills up before the job is done, request a swap. We haul the full one and drop an empty replacement. This is offered for the same cost, which covers transport and disposal of the first load. Contact customer service for an exact quote and to schedule the swap-out.

A permit is usually not required on private property like a driveway or yard. If you need to place the container on a public street, sidewalk, or anywhere that blocks public access, most cities require one. Requirements and fees vary, so check with your local government in Des Moines, Washington, typically the city or county public works or permitting office. Our customer service team can often help you figure out what is needed and obtain the permit. For private placements, permits are rare, but it is always smart to verify to avoid fines or delays.
