Frequently Asked Questions

Does someone have to be there for dumpster pick up and drop off?

This is not required, but it can help — especially for the initial drop off so we know exactly where to put it. If someone can’t be there for drop off, not a big deal. Simply give us a call so we can discuss where it would be best to leave the dumpster so that you are happy with its placement.

What parts of New Jersey do you serve?

Our company works across northern New Jersey, including Union, Hudson, Passaic, Bergen, Morris, Essex, Somerset, and Middlesex counties.

Do you have payment plans?

Yes. At Trash It, we want to work with the client’s budget and needs, and if that means paying in installments or setting up a rental package, we are happy to work with that.

What can’t go into your dumpsters?

A good question: hazardous, toxic, and flammable materials can not go into our dumpsters. For a full list of such materials, which also include batteries and computers, visit our What Can’t Be Put in a Dumpster page.

Do you offer same-day drop off and pick up?

We always try our best to meet the customer’s needs. Your location and the time of day at which you call may impact same-day drop off and pick up, but we will always strive to meet your needs and will give you a clear and honest response.

What is the cost of renting a dumpster?

A number of factors impact our pricing. Those are outlined below, and we recommend calling or emailing and we can provide a quick quote:

  • Location: Each county has unique waste management rules, which impact final pricing. Get in touch to ask about your county’s pricing so we can give you the most accurate quote possible.
  • Time: How long you require your dumpster rental for, be it a one-off project or ongoing service, will influence the pricing.
  • Waste material: Finally, your waste materials will affect where we bring your waste and what the pricing of each material is. We always work to bring you the best prices. Additionally, how much of your waste there is, weight-wise, will impact pricing — going over is fine and simply incurs costs on top of the pre-determined rate.
How long can I rent a dumpster for?

This varies. Most people rent a dumpster for about a week, but it changes depending on the project. Give us a call to learn more and to let us know what your project entails.

What sizes do your dumpster rentals come in?

We offer three convenient sizes, the 10 yard, 20 yard, and 30 yard dumpster rental. Each is geared toward specific kinds of jobs, and you can learn more about each on our sizing page.

What can go into your dumpsters?

Almost anything! Besides unsafe materials and electronics, our dumpsters are built to carry and withstand almost all conceivable forms of waste. For the majority of projects, this includes wood, dirt, landscaping waste, shingles, walling, and more.
