Short answers. If yours is not here, text or call and a person replies.

Pricing

What does the price include?
The price includes delivery, pickup, the rental days on the size card, and the included weight for that size. Taxes and any city franchise fee show as separate lines before you pay.
What happens if I go over the included weight?

The disposal site weighs the container.

If the weight is more than the included weight, we charge the extra-ton rate on your quote.

The container is weighed at the disposal site.

Can I keep it longer?
Yes. Extend from your tracking page any time before pickup. Extra days use the per-day rate on your quote.

Delivery

How soon can you deliver?
The calendar in the booking flow shows the earliest open day for your size. We book next-day in most of the service area when a truck and container are free.
Do I need to be home?
No. Tell us where to set the container in the placement notes or drop a pin on the map. The driver takes a photo at drop-off. You get the photo on your tracking page.
Will it damage my driveway?
Drivers set boards under the rails on request. Do not place the container on soft ground after heavy rain. Keep the approach clear of parked cars and low branches.
Do I need a permit for the street?
Some cities require a permit for street placement. The booking flow flags that for your address. Driveway placement usually needs no permit.
