Welcome to Contain-A-Way’s FAQ page! Here, we answer your most common questions about dumpster rentals, making your project a breeze. Don’t hesitate to call us if you have any further questions!

Additional Tips:

  • Decide on the ideal placement for your bin before you rent.
  • Let us help you choose the right size bin for your project.
  • Consider the rental duration based on your project timeline.
  • Avoid extra fees by letting us know what type of waste you’ll be disposing of.

For safety and environmental reasons, some materials are strictly prohibited. This includes hazardous waste, liquids (like paint or oil), contaminated dirt, and anything illegal.
We do accept some contaminated soils but require hazmat surveys beforehand, please contact us for details.

Our bins handle most household, construction, and yard waste. If you’re unsure about anything specific, just give us a call!

We offer a wide range of sizes, from 8 yards for small cleanups to 40 yards for large-scale projects. Our team can help you choose the perfect fit for your needs.

Rent for as long as your project requires! We offer flexible rental periods with a small daily fee.

Usually, yes! However, some cities require permits for street placement. It’s your responsibility to obtain any necessary permits, and any fines for non-compliance will be charged to you.
PLEASE NOTE: Any injury or accident as a result of bins being on the street are the sole responsibility of the customer. 

Contain-A-Way goes beyond dumpsters! We also provide temporary fencing, portable toilets, and small deliveries of sand, gravel, mulch, and soil.

Safety is our priority. Please don’t overfill the dumpster. If the driver deems it unsafe due to overloading, they may refuse pick-up, and you might incur additional charges.

Weight capacity varies by bin size. Commercial mini bins hold up to 3 tons, while industrial bins can handle up to 10 tons. See our [Bin Rentals](link to bin rental page) page for details.
