Four Steps from Booking to Pickup

Every rental follows the same four-step workflow: order, delivery, pickup, and disposal. That’s it—no surprises, just straightforward service. Call (734) 418-9791 to get started.

Step 1

Pick your size

Your project details help our team recommend a 10-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard, or 40-yard roll-off. A single-room cleanout usually fits a 10-yard container, while a roof tear-off or full kitchen remodel typically requires a 20 or 30-yard bin.

Step 2

Book delivery

Your address and chosen placement spot are confirmed during the booking process. We offer same-day delivery for the container if you call before noon, while other dumpster requests get a next-morning slot.

Step 3

Fill the dumpster

Loading through the rear swing door or over the side is simple, but please keep debris below the fill line and distribute it evenly so that the container stays within our weight limit for the bin.

Step 4

On-time pickup

Pickup happens on your scheduled date. If your project finishes early or requires a few extra days, just phone dispatch to request an extension or a Same-Day Swap-Out. We will reroute the truck to handle your roll-off or dumpster.

Common Questions Before You Book

Most Ann Arbor homeowners ask a few of the same questions on almost every call — which is why we’ve put the answers up front so that you can plan before the truck arrives.

How long can I keep the dumpster?

Most rentals include a seven-day rental window, which covers most homeowner projects or small remodels. If you need more time, extensions cover the same tonnage allowance. You can add these days right at the booking call.

Can I get a same-day swap-out when it’s full?

In most cases, you can request a mid-project swap-out: the answer is yes. If you call for phone dispatch in the morning, we can send a truck that afternoon—swapping your full 30-yard roll-off for an empty container. Just contact us to schedule dumpster delivery.

Will the container damage my driveway?

Every residential delivery in Ann Arbor uses heavy wood protection planks; the hooklift truck rolls the container onto these boards—which keeps the weight distributed—before the dumpster settles right on the driveway for the duration of the rental.

What happens to the load after pickup?

Every load from your container goes to a local transfer station via a lowboy haul. Once there, the bin is weighed and sorted for recycling or disposal within the Washtenaw system so that waste is managed properly.
