Delivery Tips & Guidelines
Step 1: Make Room for Your Dumpster Delivery
Move cars and other objects away from the delivery area and the surrounding space. We’ll confirm placement instructions with you at the time of your order, in case you can’t be on-site for delivery.
Make sure the delivery area is also clear of hanging objects such as wires or tree branches. The truck will need 23 feet of vertical clearance at most,
depending on the size of the container.
While preparing for delivery, keep in mind:
- Roll-Off trucks require about 40 feet of space in a straight line.
- Your designated placement location should be at least 10.5 feet wide.
- If the Roll-off truck will cross over a neighbor’s property, you must get permission from them first.
Step 2: Mark Your Delivery Area
Once you’ve cleared space for the dumpster,
use cones or similar items to mark the drop-off area.
This will help the driver place it exactly where you want it.
If you’d like, you can lay plywood on top of your driveway
to protect the surface from scratches or scrapes. Purple Roll-Off
DOES NOT supply this.
Step 3: Double-Check the Area on Your Scheduled Delivery Day
On the day your container will arrive, make sure your drop-off area is still clear.
To ensure the delivery truck has enough space to unload the container:
- Remove any potential obstacles from the lawn or curb.
- Ask your neighbors to move any vehicles on the street in front of your home
Step 4: Know What You Can (and Can’t) Put in The Container
Before you start filling your ROLL-OFF container, make sure you know what kind of debris you can put in your container. Our service representative will explain which items we can’t accept in your area when you order.
Use the following as a guide for what can go in your container:
- Residential containers are for items such as clothing, plastics, paper and other common household debris.
- Construction and heavy debris containers are for materials such as concrete, sheetrock and fixtures.
- Residential and construction debris should not be mixed together, unless otherwise noted by our representative.
Step 5: Schedule a pick up
- WE DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY PICK UP on the 10th day.
- There is a daily rental fee after 10 days (including weekends).
- Make sure the dumpster is not over-stacked.
- Schedule a pick up when the dumpster is full by calling
