You get a garbage dumpster rental delivered when you need it, sized right for your project, and picked up without you having to chase anyone down. No surprise fees eating into your budget.

How Our Waste Disposal Process Works

Three Steps, No Drama, Done Right

First, you tell us what you’re working on and when you need the dumpster. We help you figure out the right size—most home renovations need a 20-yard container, but we’ll walk through your specific project so you’re not paying for space you don’t use or scrambling because you ran out of room.

Next, we deliver the dumpster when we say we will. Same-day and next-day delivery available because we know construction timelines and home projects don’t always give you a week’s notice. We place it where you need it, even on tighter driveways and streets common around Folly Beach.

When you’re done, we pick it up and handle disposal according to Charleston County regulations. If you’ve got recyclables or e-waste, we make sure those get processed correctly. You don’t have to worry about compliance issues or citations—we handle that part.

What You Actually Get With Each Rental

Every dumpster rental includes delivery, pickup, and disposal—no hidden fees tacked on after you’ve already committed. You get flat-rate pricing up front so your budget stays intact. Container sizes range from 10-yard units for smaller cleanouts to 20-yard dumpsters that handle full renovation projects.

In Folly Beach and across the Charleston area, we’re seeing more homeowners tackle remodels and property improvements. That means more construction debris, old fixtures, and materials that can’t go in your regular trash. Our garbage removal service covers all of that—drywall, flooring, cabinets, roofing materials, furniture, appliances, and yard waste.

We also support commercial projects, festivals, and HOA communities that need reliable waste services on a schedule. If you’re managing a farmers market, community event, or multi-property cleanup, we’ll coordinate timing and placement so waste management doesn’t become your problem. You focus on running the project. We focus on keeping it clean.

What size dumpster do I actually need for a home renovation?

Most home renovations—kitchen remodels, bathroom updates, flooring replacements—fit comfortably in a 20-yard dumpster. That’s the most common size for residential projects because it holds roughly 10 pickup truck loads of debris.

If you’re doing a smaller cleanout, like clearing out a garage or handling a single-room project, a 10-yard container usually works. For larger jobs like whole-home renovations or significant construction work, you might need to go bigger or plan for a second container.

Here’s the thing: if you’re unsure, it’s worth a quick conversation. We’d rather help you get the right size up front than have you deal with overflow or pay for space you’re not using. Tell us what you’re tearing out or throwing away, and we’ll give you a straight answer on what fits.

Yes, same-day delivery is available depending on our schedule and your location in Folly Beach and the surrounding Charleston area. If you call early enough in the day and we have availability, we’ll get a dumpster to you.

Next-day delivery is almost always an option if same-day doesn’t work out. We know that waste removal needs don’t always come with advance notice—contractors hit unexpected demo work, storms create debris, or you finally commit to that cleanout and want it done now.

The key is reaching out as soon as you know you need it. We’ll tell you honestly what we can do and when the dumpster will arrive. No vague “we’ll get back to you” responses—just a clear timeline so you can plan accordingly.

Hazardous materials can’t go in the dumpster—that includes paint, chemicals, asbestos, oil, batteries, and tires. Charleston County has specific disposal requirements for those items, and mixing them with regular waste creates compliance problems.

Electronics and appliances with refrigerants need separate handling. We can help coordinate e-waste disposal, but those don’t go in the standard container. Same with certain types of yard waste if it’s excessive—there are limits on how much organic material can go in one load.

If you’re unsure about something specific, ask before you toss it in. We’d rather answer the question up front than deal with a pickup delay because something in the container shouldn’t be there. Most construction debris, household junk, furniture, and general waste is fine—it’s the specialty items that need a second thought.

You’re typically looking at $275 to $700 per week for a 20-yard dumpster, depending on what you’re disposing of and how long you need it. That price includes delivery, pickup, and disposal—no surprise fees for fuel, mileage, or “environmental charges” that some companies add later.

We give you flat-rate pricing up front. You know what you’re paying before the dumpster shows up, which matters when you’re managing a project budget. If you need the container longer than a week, we’ll talk through extension costs so there’s no confusion.

The price can shift based on the type of waste. Heavier materials like concrete or dirt cost more to dispose of than general household debris. If your project involves mixed materials, we’ll walk through what that means for pricing. The goal is transparency—you should know what you’re spending and why.

If the dumpster stays on your private property—your driveway, yard, or designated area—you typically don’t need a permit in Folly Beach. That’s the simplest scenario and what most homeowners do.

If you need to place the dumpster on the street or public right-of-way because your driveway won’t work, you’ll likely need a permit from the town. Requirements vary depending on how long it’ll be there and where exactly it sits. We can guide you through what’s needed based on your specific situation.

HOA neighborhoods sometimes have their own rules about dumpster placement, timing, and appearance. If you’re in a community with an HOA, check those guidelines before delivery. We’ve worked with plenty of HOA-regulated properties across the Charleston area and can help you stay compliant with whatever restrictions are in place.

If you finish your project early and want the dumpster gone, just let us know. We’ll coordinate pickup as soon as our schedule allows. You won’t get charged for the full rental period if you’re done ahead of time—we’re not interested in billing you for days you didn’t use.

If you need to keep it longer, that’s fine too. Projects run over. Unexpected work pops up. We’ll extend your rental and let you know what the additional cost looks like. No penalties for needing more time—just straightforward pricing for the extra days.

The key is communication. If your timeline changes, tell us. We’ll adjust pickup or extend the rental without making it complicated. You’re managing enough moving parts on your project—waste removal scheduling shouldn’t be one of them.
