Local Dumpster Rental Company in Traverse City

Most projects in Traverse City start around the $500 mark, depending on the container size and debris type. Payment is collected before delivery. Credit and debit cards provide the fastest confirmation, while checks and ACH transfers are accepted once processed.

Your rental price bundles every major service: drop-off, use of the dumpster, pickup, and disposal within the weight limit. A $500 invoice often represents $175 for delivery, $175 for pickup, a short rental period at $35, and roughly $115 for two tons of disposal.

If you're clearing out a garage, basement, or storage room, a 10-yard dumpster handles most small-to-medium loads. Bigger projects—kitchen remodels, flooring removal, or multi-room cleanouts—usually require a 15- or 20-yard size.

Yes. Roof tear-offs are a frequent request. A 15-yard container works well for most shingle layers, but if you're removing a heavier or multi-layer roof, we can recommend a larger roll-off to help you stay within the permitted weight limits.

Yes. Contractors and homeowners use our 20-, 30-, and 40-yard containers for remodeling debris, demolition waste, and framing scraps. Heavy-duty dumpsters are available for concrete, stone, asphalt, and dirt.

In many cases, yes. Same-day delivery is possible when the request arrives early and route schedules allow. Availability varies during busy construction seasons around Northern Michigan.

We provide delivery windows rather than exact arrival times because weather, traffic, or delays at the landfill can affect scheduling. Your driver will call ahead when they’re on the way for both delivery and pickup.

Surface damage is uncommon. The dumpster is lowered gently and supported by steel rails. Many customers place wooden boards underneath to further protect asphalt or concrete during loading.

Street placement may require approval from the Traverse City Clerk’s Office. Permits are typically needed when the container sits on public roads or affects parking or pedestrian paths.

No. Waste must remain level with the top of the bin so the tarp can be secured safely. Overfilled dumpsters cannot be removed until corrected.

Hazardous or regulated materials such as paint, solvents, batteries, tires, chemicals, electronics, medical waste, and appliances with refrigerant must stay out of the dumpster. Call (231) 252-1423 with disposal questions.

We offer 3-, 7-, 14-, and 30-day rental periods. Projects lasting longer than 30 days require a container swap to keep service active and ensure compliance with hauling requirements.

You are responsible for any materials placed inside your container. Positioning the dumpster near your home or covering it with a tarp helps discourage unauthorized dumping.
