The driver was extremely professional calling both to deliver and pickup. This was an emergency cleanup which turned out to be a reoccurring rental with Smart Dumpsters. Happy we did business and here's to more in the future!Posted on Timeka MaxieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company rocks.

They are the best quick service and very professional. Thank you and I will be using your services againPosted on Billy JackTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome people to deal with, brought the dumpster asap and always picked up the day I called when it was full. Also replaced it with another dumpster the same day .Posted on Darryl MihalekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hasan and his team provided an amazing service at an excellent price point. They are very easy to work with and went the extra mile for this customer. This was my first time renting a dumpster in Charleston. I reached out to other “leaders” in the field but was most impressed by Hasan’s flexibility, availability of inventory and pricing. Others charged for delivery and haul away. With this group, it was one simple price (and also the lowest). I recommend this company and plan to do business again.Posted on Peter MasulloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with Smart Dumpsters was phenomenal. Their website has most of the information you need such as dumpster size and pricing and there are no hidden fees or other surprises. I called with some specific questions and the gentleman who answered gave me all the information I requested. Delivery of the dumpster was without hassle and removal posed no issues. We rented their largest residential dumpster which was 6 feet tall and held 20 cubic yards. Their large dumpsters have a door the width of the unit making it easy to walk things into the dumpster. Something to be aware of is the shape of the dumpster floor. It’s sort of ‘U’ shaped which wasn’t an issue for us but something we had to factor in based on the shapes of things we were throwing away. Also, it helps if you take advantage of the door and walk things in since you will fit more into the dumpster than if you were to just randomly toss things in. I really can’t say enough about how positive my experience was.
You’ve got a timeline. Contractors waiting. Debris piling up in your driveway or backyard. The last thing you need is a dumpster company that can’t deliver on time or drops a container that’s too big for your historic property’s narrow driveway.
That’s where most roll off dumpster rentals in Harleston Village fall short. They either can’t navigate the tight streets around Park Circle and Oak Terrace, or they show up three days late with zero communication.
You get a dumpster that fits your space, arrives when we say it will, and gets pulled when you’re ready. No damage to your brick pavers. No citations from the city. No surprise fees tacked on after pickup. Just straightforward waste removal that lets you focus on the actual work instead of babysitting a dumpster rental.
We serve Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester counties—and we’ve been doing it long enough to know that Harleston Village isn’t like every other neighborhood. Your streets are narrower. Your homes are older and worth more. Your HOA actually pays attention.
We’re locally owned and operated, which means when you call, you’re talking to someone who understands Charleston County regulations and knows how to place a roll off dumpster without tearing up your property. We’ve worked with hundreds of homeowners and contractors across the Lowcountry, and we’ve built our reputation on showing up on time and doing what we say we’ll do.
You’re not getting a national call center or a franchise that doesn’t know the difference between a peninsula and a barrier island. You’re working with a local team that treats your $1.3 million historic home with the care it deserves.
First, you tell us what you’re working on—renovation debris, estate cleanout, roofing project, whatever. We’ll ask a few questions about access, placement, and timing so we can match you with the right size roll off dumpster. Most projects in Harleston Village use a 10-yard or 15-yard container, but we’ll walk you through it.
Next, we deliver. Same-day and next-day delivery is available depending on when you call. Our drivers know how to navigate historic districts, and we’ll place the dumpster exactly where you need it—driveway, street, side yard. If you need a permit for street placement, we’ll tell you upfront so there are no surprises.
Then you fill it. Standard rental periods are 3 or 10 days, and if you need more time, just let us know. When you’re done, we pull it and handle disposal. You don’t touch the waste again. That’s it—no hidden steps, no fine print, no drama.

Your roll off dumpster rental includes delivery, pickup, disposal, and up to the weight limit for your container size. We handle construction debris, household junk, furniture, appliances, yard waste, and most renovation materials. If you’re tearing out a kitchen or cleaning out an estate, we’ve got you covered.
What we don’t take: hazardous materials, chemicals, paint, tires, and certain electronics. If you’ve got e-waste, we can point you toward the right recycling solution—Charleston County has strict regulations, and we’ll help you stay compliant.
Harleston Village projects often involve historic home renovations, and that means old plaster, wood trim, windows, and sometimes surprises behind the walls. You need a dumpster company that understands the volume and weight of that kind of debris. A 10-yard dumpster works for most small to mid-size interior renovations. A 15-yard handles larger cleanouts or multi-room projects. If you’re doing a full gut or adding square footage, we’ll talk through your options so you’re not paying for space you don’t need or scrambling for a second container mid-project.
We also work with contractors who are building custom homes or managing multiple renovation projects across Charleston. If you need recurring service or job site waste management, we can set that up too.
Dumpster rental costs in Charleston typically range from $395 to $650, depending on the size you need and how long you keep it. A 10-yard dumpster—good for a bathroom remodel or garage cleanout—usually falls on the lower end. A 15-yard container for a larger renovation or estate cleanout will cost more, but you’re also getting more capacity and weight allowance.
We don’t play games with pricing. When we give you a quote, that’s what you pay—delivery, pickup, disposal, and the rental period are all included. The only time you’d see an extra charge is if you go over the weight limit or keep the dumpster longer than agreed. We’ll tell you the weight limit upfront so you know where you stand.
If you’re comparing prices, make sure you’re comparing the same thing. Some companies advertise a low base rate, then add fees for delivery, pickup, fuel, disposal, and “environmental charges.” By the time you’re done, you’re paying more than you would’ve with a straightforward quote. We don’t do that.
If you’re placing the roll off dumpster on your private property—driveway, side yard, backyard—you don’t need a permit. If you need it on the street because your driveway is too narrow or you’re worried about weight on historic pavers, then yes, you’ll need a permit from the City of Charleston.
The permit process isn’t complicated, but it does take a little time, so don’t wait until the day you need the dumpster to figure it out. The city wants to know where it’s going, how long it’ll be there, and that it won’t block traffic or create a safety issue. We can’t pull the permit for you, but we’ll tell you exactly what you need and where to go.
Most homeowners in Harleston Village prefer to keep the dumpster on their property to avoid the permit hassle altogether. If your driveway can handle it, that’s usually the easiest route. If not, we’ll work with you to figure out the best placement that keeps your project moving and keeps you compliant with local regulations.
For most interior renovations—kitchen, bathroom, flooring, or a single-room remodel—a 10-yard dumpster is plenty. That’s roughly four pickup truck loads of debris, and it handles demo materials like old cabinets, drywall, tile, and trim without taking up your entire driveway.
If you’re doing a larger project—multiple rooms, a full estate cleanout, or exterior work like siding or roofing—you’ll want a 15-yard dumpster. It gives you more space and a higher weight limit, which matters when you’re dealing with heavy materials like plaster, brick, or old hardwood.
Here’s the thing: historic homes in Harleston Village often have more debris than you expect. Walls are thicker. Materials are denser. There’s usually more demo involved because you’re working around old construction methods. If you’re on the fence between sizes, go bigger. Running out of space mid-project and waiting for a second dumpster delivery kills your timeline and costs you more in the long run. We’d rather see you have a little extra room than scramble to make it fit.
Same-day delivery is available if you call early enough, and next-day delivery is standard for most requests. We’re not shipping containers from across the state—we’re local, and our trucks are already running routes in Charleston, North Charleston, and the surrounding areas.
That said, if you need a dumpster for a specific day—especially during busy construction season or after a storm—call ahead. We’ll lock in your delivery window and make sure you’re not waiting around all day wondering when we’ll show up.
Our drivers know Harleston Village. They know which streets are tight, where the low-hanging oak branches are, and how to back a roll off dumpster into a narrow driveway without clipping your fence or tearing up your lawn. That experience matters, especially in a historic district where one wrong move can cost you thousands in property damage.
You can throw in most construction and demolition debris—drywall, wood, metal, shingles, siding, flooring, cabinets, countertops, fixtures, and general household junk. Furniture, appliances (without refrigerants), and yard waste are fine too. If it’s part of a renovation, cleanout, or construction project, it probably goes in the dumpster.
What doesn’t go in: hazardous materials, chemicals, paint, oil, tires, batteries, and certain electronics. Charleston County has strict disposal regulations, and we can’t take anything that requires special handling or creates environmental risk. If you’ve got e-waste like old TVs or computers, we can point you toward local recycling options that handle that stuff properly.
If you’re not sure whether something is allowed, just ask before you toss it in. It’s a lot easier to figure it out upfront than to deal with rejected loads or extra fees at the landfill. We’re not here to nickel-and-dime you—we just need to follow the rules so your project stays on track and you don’t get stuck with a container full of stuff we can’t haul away.
Standard rental periods are 3 days or 10 days, depending on what you need. Most homeowners doing a quick cleanout or small renovation go with the 3-day rental. Larger projects—full remodels, estate cleanouts, construction jobs—usually need the 10-day window.
If you need more time, just call us. We’ll extend the rental for a daily rate, and as long as you give us a heads-up, it’s not a problem. Projects run long sometimes—permits get delayed, contractors hit snags, weather slows things down. We get it.
What we don’t want is for you to rush and overfill the dumpster or leave debris sitting in your yard because you ran out of time. If you think you might need extra days, tell us upfront. We’d rather build that into the plan than have you stressing about a deadline that doesn’t need to be that tight. Your project timeline matters more than ours, and we’ll work with you to make sure the dumpster is there as long as you need it.
