Highly recommend!Posted on D ReeseTMTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super easy to book the dumpster with this company. 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. The communication is outstanding!! Dumpster was delivered with no problem and picked up with no issues. I was able to extend my days with ease and will definitely do business with them again in the future.🥰Posted on Rufus GrantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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’re not looking for a dumpster. You’re looking for one less thing to worry about during a renovation that’s already complicated enough.
When you’re dealing with coastal building codes, salt air corrosion concerns, and contractors who may or may not show up on time, waste disposal services shouldn’t add to your stress. You need a 10 or 20-yard dumpster that arrives when promised, sits where it should without damaging your property, and disappears when the job’s done.
That’s what happens here. You call, we deliver same-day or next-day, and we include driveway protection at no extra cost because we’ve seen what happens when companies skip that step. Your project moves forward. Your property stays intact. You don’t think about the dumpster again until it’s gone.
Smart Dumpsters exists specifically to serve Isle of Palms residents and businesses. Not Charleston. Not Mount Pleasant. Just here.
That focus matters because we understand what you’re dealing with. We know the permitting requirements, the seasonal weather shifts, the elevated flood zones, and why you can’t just throw a dumpster anywhere on a coastal property. We know that when you’re searching “dumpsters near me,” you want someone who actually knows your street, not a national chain routing calls through a call center three states away.
We’re the garbage removal service that shows up on time, protects your driveway, and doesn’t make you repeat yourself to five different people.
You tell us what you’re working on and when you need the dumpster. We recommend either a 10-yard or 20-yard based on your project scope—most residential driveways can fit a 20-yard, but we’ll confirm placement before delivery.
We deliver same-day or next-day, depending on when you call. Before the dumpster touches your driveway, we lay down protection boards. No exceptions. Then we position it exactly where you need it, confirm access for your crew, and get out of your way.
You fill it on your timeline. When you’re done, you call us and we pick it up. If you need it longer than expected, that’s fine—we adjust the rental period. If your project wraps early, we’ll grab it sooner. The whole process is designed around your schedule, not ours.
Ready to get started?
Every waste disposal unit comes with complimentary driveway protection. That’s not an upsell or an add-on—it’s standard because we’re not interested in being the company that cracks your pavement.
You get same or next-day delivery. You get your choice of 10-yard or 20-yard dumpsters. You get transparent pricing with no surprise fees when we pick up. And you get a company that understands Isle of Palms specifically—the salt air challenges, the property values, the renovation complexities that come with coastal construction.
Most of our clients are homeowners managing renovations on high-value properties. They’re dealing with contractors, architects, and permitting offices. They don’t have time to babysit a dumpster company. So we handle our part without requiring follow-up calls or constant check-ins. You’ll know when we’re coming, where we’re putting it, and when we’re picking it up. That’s it.
Same-day if you call before noon on most days. Next-day if you call later or if we’re fully booked that afternoon.
We keep inventory specifically for Isle of Palms, so we’re not scrambling to route a truck from Charleston or waiting on availability from a regional depot. When you need waste services fast—because your contractor just showed up or your cleanout is happening tomorrow—we can usually make it happen within hours.
That said, if you know your timeline in advance, call ahead. We’ll lock in your delivery window and you won’t have to think about it again.
Not if we’re the ones delivering it. We include driveway protection with every rental at no extra cost.
A 20-yard dumpster is heavy. Add construction debris or cleanout materials and you’re looking at serious weight sitting on your pavement for days or weeks. Without protection boards underneath, you’re risking cracks, scrapes, or permanent indentations—especially on asphalt driveways in coastal heat.
We’ve seen the damage other companies leave behind when they skip this step to save time or cut costs. So we don’t skip it. Ever. Your property is worth too much to risk over a few pieces of plywood.
Most residential renovations fit comfortably in a 20-yard dumpster. Kitchen remodels, bathroom tearouts, flooring replacements, and small additions all fall into that range.
If you’re doing a single-room cleanout, replacing a deck, or handling yard debris, a 10-yard is usually enough. If you’re gutting multiple rooms or dealing with a full-home renovation, you might need a 20-yard with a swap-out midway through, or just a longer rental period.
When you call, tell us what you’re working on and we’ll recommend the right size. If we’re wrong, we’ll swap it out. But after doing this in Isle of Palms for a while, we’re usually not wrong.
Both. We work with residential homeowners and commercial businesses in Isle of Palms.
If you’re a contractor working on a build site, a property manager handling a turnover cleanout, or a business owner dealing with a renovation, we deliver the same service—same-day or next-day, driveway protection included, and flexible rental periods that match your project timeline.
The process doesn’t change. You tell us what you need, we deliver it, and we pick it up when you’re done. Whether that’s a homeowner’s kitchen remodel or a commercial office buildout doesn’t matter to us.
You can put construction debris, household junk, furniture, appliances, flooring, drywall, wood, metal, and most renovation materials in the dumpster.
You can’t put hazardous waste, chemicals, paint, tires, batteries, or electronics. Those require special disposal and we’re not licensed to handle them. If you’re unsure about something specific, call us before you toss it in.
Most residential and commercial projects don’t run into issues here. But if you’re cleaning out a garage or workshop and you’ve got old paint cans or motor oil sitting around, set those aside. We’ll tell you where to take them or who can pick them up.
Pricing depends on dumpster size and rental period, but you’re typically looking at a flat rate that includes delivery, pickup, disposal, and driveway protection. No hidden fees.
A 10-yard dumpster costs less than a 20-yard. A one-week rental costs less than a two-week rental. But we give you the full price upfront when you call, so you know exactly what you’re paying before we deliver.
If you need to extend the rental, we’ll adjust the price and let you know the difference before you commit. If you’re comparing us to other garbage removal services in the area, make sure you’re comparing the same inclusions—most companies charge extra for driveway protection or tack on disposal fees at pickup. We don’t.
