Question 1

What can I put in the dumpster?

Accepted Answer

Most household debris, construction waste, wood, shingles, drywall and general waste are allowed. Concrete may be allowed with approval based on weight restrictions. Contact us with any questions related to what is allowed.

Question 2

What items are not allowed?

Accepted Answer

Hazardous materials such as paint, chemicals, batteries, tires, asbestos, propane tanks, and electronics are not permitted. If you’re unsure about a specific item, ask before loading.

Question 3

How long can I keep the dumpster?

Accepted Answer

Our standard rental period is flexible and designed to fit real-world projects. All rentals will come with 5 days included and it is $10/day after.  If you need it longer, just let us know—we’ll work with you.

Question 4

Do I need a permit?

Accepted Answer

If the dumpster is placed on your private property (like a driveway), a permit is usually not required. If it needs to be placed on a public street, local permits may apply. We can help you figure that out.

Question 5

How much weight can the dumpster hold?

Accepted Answer

Each dumpster size includes a weight limit. Heavy materials like concrete, brick, and shingles add up quickly, so it’s important to choose the right size. We’ll walk you through it to avoid overage fees.

Question 6

Will the dumpster damage my driveway?

Accepted Answer

At Blu Bin, protecting your property is a priority. Our trucks are operated by experienced drivers who are trained to place dumpsters carefully and safely. In most cases, properly installed concrete or asphalt driveways handle dumpster placements without issue. For added protection, we can place wood boards under the dumpster upon request to help distribute weight and minimize surface contact. We take care during delivery and pickup, but we recommend placing plywood under the dumpster if you’re concerned about asphalt or decorative concrete.

Question 7

How soon can you deliver?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, we can deliver quickly—often same or next day depending on availability. We pride ourselves on being on time and easy to work with.

Question 8

How does pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Our pricing is straightforward and transparent. It includes delivery, pickup, rental time, and a set weight allowance. No surprise fees.
