Frequently Asked Questions

A 15 or 20-yard container handles most single-room renovations, garage cleanouts, or moderate estate cleanouts. Whole-house cleanouts or larger renovation projects usually call for a 20 or 30-yard. If you're not sure, describe the project when you call and we'll recommend a size.

Standard roll-off containers can't take items like tires, batteries, paint, solvents, refrigerants-containing appliances, or other hazardous materials without special handling. We'll go over what's and isn't allowed for your specific project when you book so there are no issues at pickup.

Yes, shingles are commonly disposed of this way, but they're heavy — a roof tear-off typically needs its own size recommendation and weight allowance rather than sharing a container with other renovation debris. Mention the roofing job when you call so we can size it correctly.

Every rental includes a weight allowance based on the size you book. If a load comes in over that allowance, there's an overage charge based on the extra weight, which we'll explain up front so it's never a surprise.

In most cases, yes — general construction debris and household junk can go in the same roll-off. Concrete, dirt, and other heavy fill material are the main exception, since they hit the weight limit fast and often need a dedicated container sized for heavy debris.

If the container sits entirely on private property — your driveway or yard — a permit generally isn't required. If it needs to sit in the street or public right-of-way, most cities in our service area, including the City of Marietta, require a permit from the local public works department. We can tell you what applies to your specific address when you call.

Yes, and we're familiar with common HOA placement rules in many Cobb and Cherokee County subdivisions — things like keeping containers off the street or limiting how long they can sit visible from the road. Mention your neighborhood when you book and we'll factor that into placement.
