Materials Guide

What Can Go In a Dumpster?

Most of what comes out of a house or a job site is fine. A short list is not — and getting it wrong can mean a rejected load.

Accepted materials

  • Household junk and furniture
  • Appliances (an additional landfill fee may apply)
  • Construction debris
  • Roofing shingles
  • Yard waste and brush
  • Drywall and plaster
  • Concrete and brick — heavy, ask us about weight
  • Flooring and carpet
  • General trash and clutter
  • Manure
  • Non-friable asbestos — you must provide the manifest and required paperwork

Not accepted

  • Hazardous waste
  • Paint and solvents
  • Chemicals and pesticides
  • Tires
  • Car batteries
  • Electronics such as TVs and computers
  • Medical waste
  • Friable asbestos
  • Flammable materials
  • Appliances containing Freon

A word on weight

Concrete, brick, soil and roofing shingles are accepted, but they are heavy enough to hit a weight limit long before they fill the container. If you are loading a lot of any of them, say so when you book — a smaller container for the heavy material is usually cheaper than an overage charge on a large one.
