Get matched with top dumpster providers in Sibley, LA

In most municipalities, you won’t need a permit for a dumpster if it’s parked in your driveway or yard, but this varies by location. You should always check with your local Department of Transportation or junk removal company to determine if you’ll need a permit. If you need to park your dumpster in the street, you will likely need a permit. Permit fees for dumpsters are usually affordable, totaling between $25 and $75. Your garbage removal company should pull the permit for you and just pass the permit fee to you via your invoice.

The majority of general contractors include junk and trash removal in their contracts, but services vary. As the homeowner, you may need to manage tricky items on your own, such as disposing of laminate flooring in an eco-conscious way or by arranging for appliance pickup with your local waste management service.

Composting can be a great alternative if you’re looking for a way to dispose of food scraps without a garbage disposal. If you have the space in your yard, you can install a compost bin or compost pile and add food waste. After enough time and heat, the compost will break down and can be used to mulch your garden. 

If you don’t have space for compost, consider city-run programs or local companies that will pick up your food waste.

Costs range from $200 to $1,000 per rental, depending on dumpster size, duration, and waste type. Additional fees may apply for exceeding weight limits or hazardous waste disposal.
