To park your rental dumpster on the bustling and lively streets of Portland, you must first obtain a permit from the City. You must endure the arduous process of obtaining a permit which can take up to 24 hours.
The City has a modest $32 fee for a right-of-way portable storage container permit. However, no permit is needed if the dumpster rental is placed on private property. Homeowners' associations should be consulted for any restrictions or requirements.
We value your safety and the environment's health, and therefore we request you keep some materials out of your rental dumpster. Here are the items that cannot be accepted:
When you reach out to us, we'll discuss the type of waste you intend to dispose of. We can always recommend alternative disposal or recycling resources for the abovementioned materials. Your cooperation in keeping our operators and the environment safe is highly appreciated.
You should take care to not overfill your dumpster. This is especially true when you are disposing of very heavy material. Each container is subject to a weight limit at the landfill. If the dumpster container exceeds this, there could be additional charges. If your dumpster is overloaded, you may be asked to remove some of the material or have an additional dumpster rental delivered to accommodate the full load.
Rain or snow can accumulate in your rental dumpster container. Not only can this result in water pooling at the bottom of your dumpster, but items in the dumpster can absorb that water. This can lead to your load weighing more at the landfill. Some of the accumulated water will drain out when the dumpster is tipped to load onto the hauling truck. But this can’t remove the water from soaked items in the dumpster. Any excess weight will be subject to an overweight fee if it exceeds the weight allowance.
Your rental dumpster is not weighed until it reaches the landfill. The driver stops on a large scale at the entrance to the facility. The total weight is measured and recorded. The operator will then proceed into the landfill to dump the load. The empty container is then reweighed when it leaves the facility.
Local, state, and federal regulations restrict certain items from being thrown away in a landfill. This includes most electronics, as these are considered hazardous household waste. This e-waste contains hazardous chemicals that can contaminate nearby water and soil needed to recover by dumpster rental. These components in electronics such as televisions are better recycled. If your TV is working, consider donating it to a local charity such as Goodwill or Habitat for Humanity. Non-working TVs can be taken to your nearest hazardous household waste facility.
In many locations, mattresses and box springs are prohibited in landfills. This means that you can’t throw your mattress away in your dumpster rental container. Why are mattresses prohibited? Mattresses are considered to be bio hazardous waste and can be contaminated with bodily fluids, pests, and dander. In addition, mattresses and box springs take up a lot of space in a landfill.
Landfills typically ban the residential disposal of used passengers and tires. Whole tires take up too much space in a landfill and are a toxic fire risk. It is better for the environment for tires to be recycled rather than tossed out. We can help with resources for recycling your used tires. In some cases, we can transport them separately for a fee. When you call to set up your dumpster delivery, let us know if you have any tires to dispose of, and we will discuss your options for recycling. For commercial projects, be sure to ask about the dumpster rental cost and how it fits.
