Step up to our 12-15 yard options when you’re tackling medium-sized projects like basement cleanouts, flooring removal, or moderate landscaping jobs. These containers hold about 4-6 pickup truck loads and strike the perfect balance between capacity and footprint. They’re popular with Lansing homeowners doing kitchen renovations, deck removals, or whole-room remodels. If you’re unsure whether you need a 10 or 20 yard, this middle option often hits the sweet spot.

We accept most construction debris including drywall, lumber, concrete, asphalt, and roofing shingles. Household junk like furniture, appliances (note: some appliances require special handling), and carpeting is welcome. Yard waste such as branches, leaves, soil, and sod can go in the dumpster.

| Common Customer Concerns & Important Guidelines | |
|---|---|
| Question / Concern | Answer / Guideline |
| How do I select the correct dumpster size for my project? | Consider the scope of your project and volume of debris. Our team can help you estimate based on project type. As a general rule: small cleanouts need 10-15 yards, full renovations need 20-30 yards, and major construction or demolition requires 30-40 yards. When in doubt, it's often better to go slightly larger to avoid overfilling. |
| What happens if I overload the dumpster or exceed the weight limit? | Each dumpster has a fill line marked on the inside; debris should not exceed this line. Overloading can create safety hazards during transport and may result in additional fees. If you exceed the included tonnage, overage charges apply (typically charged per ton). We'll always communicate weight limits upfront with our Transparent Pricing policy. |
| What items are prohibited? Can I dispose of hazardous waste? | Prohibited items include: hazardous waste (paint, chemicals, solvents, oil, asbestos), tires, batteries, propane tanks, medical waste, electronics in some areas, and certain appliances containing refrigerants. We practice Eco-Friendly Disposal, which means properly sorting and recycling acceptable materials. Always ask if you're unsure about a specific item. |
| Do I need a permit to place a dumpster on my property? | If the dumpster is placed on private property (your driveway, yard, parking lot), you typically do not need a permit. If it must be placed on a public street or right-of-way, a permit from your local municipality is usually required. We can guide you through local regulations and help you understand permit requirements in your area. |
| Where should I place the dumpster to avoid damage to my property? | Choose a flat, stable surface like a driveway or parking lot. Avoid soft ground, grass, or areas near septic systems or underground utilities. Consider placing plywood boards under the dumpster to protect asphalt or concrete from weight and scratching. Ensure there's clearance overhead (watch for low-hanging power lines, tree branches) and enough space for delivery and pickup (typically 60+ feet of clearance for the truck). |
| What are the standard rental terms and how long can I keep the dumpster? | Our standard rental period is 7 days, which is included in the base price. Need it longer? We offer Flexible Scheduling with daily, weekly, and monthly rental options. Extended rentals incur additional fees, but we work with your timeline. Let us know your project duration upfront, and we'll structure the rental accordingly. |
| How quickly can you deliver and pick up the dumpster? | We offer Fast and Reliable Delivery with same-day service available (based on availability and order time). Most orders placed by early afternoon can be delivered the same day. Next-day delivery is guaranteed for most requests. Pickup is typically scheduled within 24 hours of your call. We understand projects move quickly, so we move quickly too. |
| How can I prevent damage during delivery and pickup? | Our experienced drivers take care during placement, but you can help by: clearing the delivery path of vehicles, toys, and obstacles; marking any sensitive areas (sprinkler heads, decorative pavers); communicating any concerns about your property upfront. Using protective boards under the dumpster minimizes surface contact. We're licensed and insured, and we treat every property with respect. |
