Choose a container

Five containers.
One right answer.

Size is about the material as much as the volume. Heavy debris wants low walls; bulky debris wants tall ones. If you are between two, call — the wrong size costs a second haul.

Who we deliver to

A driveway and a job site
are the same call.

21 years in, the split is close to even. The equipment does not change much between the two — the scheduling, the placement and the paperwork do.

Residential

For the house

One container, one driveway, a weekend that finally ends with the garage empty. We set it where you ask and take it when you are done.

  • Garage, attic and whole-house cleanouts
  • Kitchen, bath and basement remodels
  • Roofing tear-off and siding replacement
  • Estate and downsizing clear-outs
  • Deck demolition and yard hardscape removal
  • Broken-up driveway, patio and walkway concrete

Most homes take the 16 yard. It fits a single parking space and still holds about eight pickup loads.

Commercial

For the site

Containers that keep a schedule. Swap-outs when the box is full, placement that does not fight the crew, and a washout unit that keeps the pour compliant.

  • New construction and C&D debris
  • Commercial demolition and interior strip-out
  • Tenant turnovers and retail upfit
  • Concrete, block, asphalt and unsuitable soil
  • Stormwater and SWPPP-regulated concrete washout
  • Retail and industrial high-volume dry waste

Running long? The 40 yard compactor locks and holds up to 17.5 tons, so pickups stay occasional.

How it works

Four steps,
no surprises.

  1. 01

    Tell us the job

    Call or send the form. What you are throwing out matters more than the square footage — it decides the size.

  2. 02

    We deliver

    Order by 4 PM and it arrives the next day, dispatched from Mebane or Smithfield depending on where you are.

  3. 03

    Fill it

    Standard window is 7 to 14 days. Load to the fill line, keep it level, and call before the window closes if the job runs long.

  4. 04

    We haul it

    One call and the truck comes back. Need another? We swap the full one for an empty on the same trip.

What goes in what

Match the container
to the material.

Weight is the thing people underestimate. A 30 yard of drywall is easy; a 30 yard of concrete is not legal to haul. This is the short version.

Questions

The ones we get
every week.

How long is a standard dumpster rental?

Our standard rental window is 7 to 14 days. If the job runs longer, call us before the window closes and we will extend it rather than surprise you at pickup.

How fast can you deliver a dumpster?

Order by 4 PM and we deliver next day across our Central North Carolina service area. We dispatch from two yards — Mebane and Smithfield — which is what keeps next-day realistic across both the Triangle and the Triad.

What size dumpster do I need?

For a cleanout or a single-room remodel, the 16 yard is usually right. For concrete, dirt, asphalt or roofing, the 20 yard has low 3.5-foot walls that make heavy loading safer. For a whole-home renovation or commercial demolition, the 30 yard gives you six-foot walls and the most room. If you are between two sizes, call — it costs nothing to talk it through and the wrong size costs a second haul.

How much weight can a dumpster hold?

Our 20 yard and 40 yard compactor carry up to 17.5 tons. Heavy material like concrete, brick and dirt is exactly why the 20 yard exists — it is built low and rated for the weight rather than the volume.

Do you rent to homeowners as well as contractors?

Both, every day. Roughly the same container that serves a tenant turnover serves a garage cleanout. The difference is usually scheduling and placement, not the equipment.

Where will the dumpster sit?

Most residential deliveries go on the driveway; most commercial deliveries go on the pad or a cleared stretch of the site. Tell us where you want it when you book and the driver will place it there if the approach allows. Leave roughly 60 feet of straight clearance in front of the spot and enough overhead room for the container to tilt off the truck.

Do you handle concrete washout?

Yes. We deliver a water-tight washout container so there is no pit to dig and no risk of rinse water reaching groundwater — which is what keeps a pour in line with stormwater and SWPPP requirements.

Need a container this week?

Order by 4 PM and we will have it to you tomorrow. Tell us the material and we will tell you the size.
