Roll-Off Dumpster Rental

Roll-off dumpsters are the open-top containers you see at construction sites and renovation projects. Here's everything you need to know before renting one.

What Is a Roll-Off Dumpster?

A roll-off dumpster is a large, open-top waste container that is "rolled off" a specialized truck onto your property. Unlike front-load or rear-load commercial dumpsters (the kind behind stores), roll-offs are designed for temporary use and come in sizes ranging from 10 to 40 cubic yards.

How Roll-Off Delivery Works

1

You book a dumpster and confirm delivery date, container size, and placement location

2

A specialized hook-lift truck delivers the container and rolls it off onto your driveway or job site

3

You fill it with debris over your rental period (typically 7 days)

4

Call the company when ready for pickup — the truck retrieves the container and hauls it to the landfill

5

Final charges (including any weight overages) are settled after pickup
