Q: Do I need a permit for a roll-off dumpster?

• <div><p>You will need a permit for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-roll-off-dumpster.htm">roll-off dumpster</a> if you plan on storing it in the street or if it will block any sidewalks or other public areas. A roll-off dumpster that sits completely on your private property often won&rsquo;t require a permit, but some HOAs and municipalities will require them even if the dumpster won&rsquo;t be on or block public spaces.</p></div>

Q: Where is the best place to put a dumpster?

• <div><p>The ideal dumpster location is flat, accessible, and out of the way. If local guidelines allow it, a street, driveway, or paved area near or in front of your home is a good option. However, you should avoid soft ground, tight corners, or blocking entrances. If you live in a neighborhood with restrictions, always check with your city or HOA before placing a dumpster.</p></div>

Q: Is recycling part of the waste management services offered by providers?

• <div><p>Yes, many providers include recycling as part of their waste management services. Confirm with your contractor.</p></div>

Q: How much can a 6x10 dump trailer hold?

• <div><p>The amount a 6-by-10-foot dump trailer can hold varies depending on the model. Generally, however, they can hold at least 4 cubic yards of waste with a load capacity of at least 4,000 lbs. This is around 1/4 to 1/2 the amount a standard junk removal truck can hold. It&rsquo;s also considerably less than the most common dumpster size of 20 cubic yards.</p></div>
