No. Tell us where you'd like it, and the driver will set it there on wood planks.

Delivery, pickup, two weeks on site and the weight allowance for your size. There's no separate fuel or disposal charge.

Yes. The back door swings open so you can wheel or carry heavy items straight in.

Often the same day if you call in the morning, and usually the next day.

Wet paint, oil, gasoline, propane tanks, asbestos and other hazardous materials. Yard waste needs its own dumpster and can't be mixed with other debris. Mattresses, TVs, tires and appliances with Freon can go in for a per-item fee. Have a propane tank to get rid of? Please contact us before you order and we'll tell you how to handle it.

Yes, for a fee. Massachusetts bans these from the trash because they must be recycled: TVs / CRTs $50, Mattresses / box springs $100, Appliances with Freon (fridges, freezers, AC units, dehumidifiers) $50, Other appliances not placed on top of the load or at the back door $50, Tires $25 each. Washers, dryers, stoves and other appliances without Freon cost nothing extra if you set them on top of the load or just inside the back door. Mention them when you order so the driver can pull them for recycling.

Each size includes a weight allowance (1.5 tons for a 10 yard, 2 tons for a 15 yard, 3 tons for a 20 yard). Weight over that is $225 per ton, billed by the pound, so a little over costs a little.

Keep it as long as you need. Each day past two weeks is $10. Call when you're ready for pickup.

Fifteen cubic yards, or roughly 7 to 9 pickup truck loads: enough for a kitchen remodel or a packed two-car garage.

Yes, for most single-layer roofs. Shingles are heavy, so tell us your squares and layers and we'll check the weight before you order.

Twenty cubic yards, about 10 to 12 pickup truck loads. Most whole-house cleanouts and large remodels fit.

Most of the time. The truck needs room to back in and tilt its bed, so tell us about your driveway and we'll confirm.
