Dumpster Rental Instructions

Thank you for choosing Mainely Trash for your trash and recycling needs. We pride ourselves in providing the best waste management services. In order for us to serve you well, we need your assistance to prepare for your dumpster rental.

Here are the key details:

Dumpster Delivery Location: When you sign-up for our dumpster rental you can provide further detailed pickup instructions to let our team know exactly where you would like your dumpster. Please take a moment to provide those details.

It is very important that your dumpster is placed on a safe, relatively flat surface and not on top of any property surfaces that may be damaged by the weight of the dumpster. Please consider what utilities might be located under the ground in the location as well. It is the customer’s responsibility to identify the appropriate location for the dumpster.

For safety reasons, the Mainely Trash team will not build stilts or other types of structures to install the dumpster on.

The Mainely Trash team will install a driveway protection system under the dumpster wheels if that is needed.

Filling Your Dumpster:

For safety purposes it’s important that your dumpster is not filled higher than the top side rail of the dumpster. All contents must also be placed evenly throughout the dumpster for proper weight distribution. These key items ensure safe loading on our truck and also safe transport to our disposal facility. Not following these instructions may make removing your dumpster impossible and your contents may need to be removed by you as the customer so we can haul your dumpster.
