The weight of the debris is calculated using certified truck scales at the disposal facility. Initially, the truck with the loaded dumpster is weighed to obtain the gross weight. After emptying the contents, the truck is weighed again to determine the tare weight. The difference between these two measurements represents the weight of the debris. The Bureau of Weights and Measures regulates these scales to ensure accuracy. This method precisely assesses the waste's weight, which is crucial for billing purposes.

Yes, the weight of the materials in your dumpster exceeds the included weight specified in your order confirmation. In that case, you will be charged for the additional weight at the specified tonnage rate. The company is charged by weight at the disposal facility, which is passed to the customer. To avoid unexpected fees, it's advisable to estimate the weight of your debris accurately and consult with the company if you're unsure. They can provide guidance on selecting the appropriate dumpster size and weight allowance for your project. Being proactive in this regard can help manage costs effectively.

Certain items, such as mattresses, large or bulky electronic waste items, tires, and freon items, may incur per-item fees at the disposal facility. These additional fees are listed with pricing on the service agreement and will be passed on to the customer. It's essential to review items that may result in extra charges before placing them in the dumpster. The company's customer service team can provide detailed information if you have questions about specific materials. Being informed about these potential costs can help you plan your disposal needs more effectively.

If debris is overflowing or hanging over the sides of the dumpster, it cannot be safely transported to the transfer station, recycling facility, or landfill. Debris could fall out, causing personal injuries or property damage. Depending on how much debris is involved, the driver may not be able to safely pick up the container, which would result in a trip fee. In some cases, another dumpster may be required to offload some of the debris to get each container under the legal limit. A trip fee ranging from $200 to $350 may be incurred, plus the price of a new container if needed. To avoid these issues, ensure the dumpster is not loaded above the fill line.

While driveway damage is unlikely, there is a possibility due to the weight of the dumpster and its contents. The company uses extreme caution when placing the dumpster and recommends that you have a minimum of three 4′ x 8′ plywood sheets or a minimum of three 2″ x 4″ boards for the driver to place on your driveway where the dumpster will be positioned. This wood acts as a safeguard to protect the driveway surface. It's the customer's responsibility to take these precautions to prevent potential damage. If you have concerns about your driveway, discuss them with the company before delivery.

Dumpster permits are typically only required when placing a dumpster on public property such as a street, easement, or sidewalk. Permit requirements can vary within the same town based on placement specifics. It's advisable to contact your local township office or public works department to determine the exact permit requirements for your specific situation. The company can also guide permit needs based on their experience in various locations. Ensuring you have the necessary permits can prevent potential fines or delays.

It's recommended to order your dumpster at least 24 hours in advance to ensure availability. Please note that there is no guaranteed delivery time, so if a roll-off dumpster is needed first thing in the morning, delivery should be scheduled for the day prior. Planning helps accommodate your project timeline and ensures the dumpster is available. Due to higher demand, planning during peak seasons is essential. If you have a specific timeline, discuss it with the company to make appropriate arrangements.

Deliveries can occur between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. The company cannot guarantee any requests for a specific time of day, as the driver's routes are determined by the demand and site locations each day for maximum routing efficiency. If you need your dumpster to get working by a specific time of day, it's recommended to schedule delivery for the day before to keep your project moving. Communicating your needs with the company can help you plan the delivery schedule. Flexibility in delivery times can assist in accommodating various customer requirements.

While it's preferred, someone doesn't need to be onsite to deliver or remove the roll-off dumpster. The driver will use their best judgment to place the dumpster in the safest accessible area. However, the customer will be responsible for all charges involved with relocating the dumpster should it be necessary. For removal, the customer agrees to provide unobstructed access to the roll-off dumpster on the scheduled pick-up day. If the dumpster is inaccessible, a wasted trip charge may apply.
