Dumpster Rental Frequently Asked Questions

How much space do your dumpsters take up?

We recommend that you leave enough space around the dumpster so that you can load it up with waste easily. It is recommended that you have about 35-50 feet of free space to place your dumpster rental. It is important to keep in mind that this is just an estimate and it is best to connect with us on the appropriate space for your dumpster before delivery.

 

What can I put in the roll-off dumpster?

This is one of the most common questions that our waste removal company gets. It is important that you abide by these guidelines to ensure that we are in compliance with the law.

You are allowed to put items such as: construction waste, household appliances such as stoves, washers, and dryers, furniture, clothing, and general household items in the dumpster.

You are not allowed to put items such as: car batteries, tires, chemicals of any kind, or paint in the dumpster.

Please ask us first before putting items such as asbestos, roofing shingles, or dirt in the dumpster.

If you are not sure if an item can go in the dumpster, just ask!

 

How much can I put in the dumpster?

We have to abide by state rules and regulations when it comes to this dumpster guideline. You can fill your roll-off dumpster rental up to the fill line. When we come to pick up your dumpster rental our team will check the container before removing it.

Ragin Container Rentals, LLC provides flexible waste collection services which vary from once a week to five days a week depending on the amount of waste you have. In addition, you have the option to add additional days of service when needed!

 

Where is the best place to put the dumpster?

We recommend that our roll off dumpsters are placed on hard surfaces such as driveways or streets. It is possible that the weight of the dumpster could cause damage to surfaces that are weaker such as grass.

 

Do I need a permit for the dumpster?

You might need a permit to put the container on the street. It is best to contact your local city officials to make sure that you are following proper rules and regulations.

 

How quickly can I get a dumpster rental?

We can usually deliver your roll off dumpster within a few hours, but definitely by the next day. Please call and schedule any after hours roll off dumpster deliveries and we will make accommodations for you.

 

Do I need to be present when the dumpster is picked up?

No, you do not have to be present when the dumpster is picked up.
