Whether your project starts tomorrow or today, we make it easy to get a roll-off dumpster delivered fast, filled at your pace, and hauled away when you are done. Local knowledge. Reliable equipment. Fair rates.

The right dumpster makes all the difference, and so does getting it on time. When a project moves fast, you should not have to wait days for a container to show up. Same-day and next-day delivery available means that when you call us in the morning, there is a real chance a dumpster is sitting in your driveway before the afternoon is over.
The process is straightforward. We drop off the container at the location you choose, you fill it at whatever pace your project demands, and when you are ready for pickup, you give us a call. We handle it from there.
We take placement seriously, especially in Harvey's residential neighborhoods where driveways vary and street space can be tight. Our drivers position every container carefully to protect your pavement, your landscaping, and your neighbors' access. Rental periods are flexible, and if your project runs longer than expected, extensions are easy to arrange. A temporary dumpster rental should fit your schedule, not the other way around.
Every project is different, so we carry six container sizes to match the job. Whether you are clearing out a single room or managing a large commercial demolition, there is a size that fits your scope and your budget.
The 10-yard container holds roughly 4 pickup-truck loads of debris, making it a solid choice for small projects with a defined scope. It works well for garage or attic cleanouts, a single-room renovation, or a modest pile of household junk that has built up over time.
At roughly 6 pickup-truck loads of debris, the 12-yard is a step up for projects with a bit more volume. Think basement cleanouts, moderate yard waste removal, or a small roofing job where shingle disposal needs to stay organized.
The 15-yard holds roughly 7 pickup-truck loads of debris and handles mid-size home renovations comfortably. It is also a popular choice for estate cleanouts and landscaping debris removal when the volume is real but a larger container would be overkill.
At roughly 10 pickup-truck loads of debris, the 20-yard is one of our most requested sizes. Full home cleanouts, roofing tear-offs, and remodeling projects all land squarely in this range. It gives you room to work without paying for capacity you do not need.
The 30-yard holds roughly 12 pickup-truck loads of debris and is built for larger renovation work, demolition debris, and commercial cleanouts. Contractors managing mid-scale job sites in Jefferson Parish reach for this size regularly.
Our largest container holds roughly 16 pickup-truck loads of debris. Major construction waste, land clearing, and large commercial or contractor jobs call for this level of capacity. When the volume is serious, the 40-yard delivers.
A note on heavy debris: concrete, dirt, brick, and similar dense materials carry their own weight limits and tonnage allowances regardless of container size. If your project involves primarily heavy materials, ask us about our lowboy option. The lowboy is a separate, low-profile container built specifically for dense, heavy loads, and it is priced and sized accordingly. We will help you choose the right fit when you call.
We are ready when you are.
For construction crews and weekend warriors alike, we offer residential dumpster rentals sized for real-life projects. Homeowners in Harvey and across Jefferson Parish reach out to us for all kinds of jobs: clearing out a home before a move, sorting through an estate after a loss, tackling a long-overdue garage cleanout, or hauling away the debris left behind after a landscaping overhaul.
Hoarding cleanouts and foreclosure cleanouts are jobs we handle with care and discretion. We understand these situations carry weight beyond the physical debris, and we show up professionally every time.
We are respectful of your time, your driveway, and your property. That means our drivers take care with placement, our equipment arrives clean, and we do not leave a mess behind when we pick up. If you have questions about what can go in the container or how long you can keep it, we are easy to reach and happy to walk you through it.
Your project deserves the right equipment. We work with general contractors, roofing crews, remodeling companies, and property managers throughout the region who need dependable dumpster service without the hassle.
Construction debris, demolition waste, roofing tear-off material, and renovation debris all have a place in our containers. We offer swap-out service for ongoing job sites, so when one container fills up, we replace it without interrupting your work schedule. For contractors managing multiple jobs at once, we can coordinate recurring rentals and keep your sites clean and compliant.
Commercial accounts are welcome, and we are used to working around job-site schedules. Reliable scheduling matters when your crew is on the clock, and we treat your timeline the same way we treat our own.
Here's what most people get wrong about dumpster rentals: they assume the quoted price is just the starting point, and that fees will pile on at pickup. That is not how we operate. When we give you a quote, it covers the container, delivery, pickup, and disposal. No surprise charges when the truck comes to haul it away.
Your final rate is shaped by a few honest variables: the size of the container, the weight of the debris, the rental period, and the type of materials involved. We walk you through all of it upfront so you know exactly what to expect before we ever drop a container in your driveway.
We offer free estimates, so there is no obligation to call and ask. We will also let you know if your materials include anything restricted or prohibited from disposal, such as hazardous waste, certain electronics, or specific chemicals. Setting accurate expectations on the front end saves everyone time and keeps your project moving. One call is all it takes.
Harvey is our home base, and we serve the full stretch of communities that make up the west bank and east bank of Jefferson Parish. That includes Marrero, Gretna, Westwego, Terrytown, Metairie, and Kenner, along with other nearby areas across the parish.
We know the local permit requirements for placing a dumpster on a public street, and we can help you understand what is needed before your container arrives. Permit rules vary by municipality and street type, and having someone local who knows the specifics saves you the headache of sorting it out on your own.
Roofing jobs are heavier than most people expect because shingles carry significant weight per square foot. A 20-yard container works well for an average-sized residential roof, but if you are dealing with multiple shingle layers or a larger home, a 30-yard may be the better call. When you describe the job to us, we will help you choose the size that keeps you within the weight limit and avoids overage charges.
The 20-yard is one of our most requested sizes because it covers a wide range of jobs. Full home cleanouts, roofing tear-offs, kitchen and bathroom remodels, and estate cleanouts all fall comfortably in this range. It holds roughly 10 pickup-truck loads of debris, which gives most residential projects enough room to finish in a single rental.
The 15-yard is a strong middle-ground choice for mid-size home renovations, estate cleanouts, and landscaping debris removal where a 10-yard feels tight but a 20-yard would be more than you need. It holds roughly 7 pickup-truck loads of debris, which handles multi-room cleanouts and deck or fence removals comfortably. If you are on the fence between sizes, call us and we will talk through the scope of your project.
A 10-yard container is usually the right fit for a single-space cleanout like a garage or attic, holding roughly 4 pickup-truck loads of debris. If the space has accumulated a large volume of items or includes heavier materials, a 12-yard or 15-yard may give you more comfortable room to work. We can help you estimate the right size when you call.
Yes. Large-scale demolition and new construction projects typically call for a 30-yard or 40-yard container depending on the volume of material. The 40-yard holds roughly 16 pickup-truck loads of debris and is built for serious commercial and contractor volume. For projects generating dense heavy debris like concrete or masonry, ask us about the lowboy as a companion container.
When your container reaches capacity, you call us and we send a truck to haul it away and drop a fresh empty one in its place. We coordinate the timing to minimize downtime on your job site, and for contractors managing ongoing work, we can set up a recurring swap schedule in advance. Swap-out service is available throughout our service area in Jefferson Parish.
Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, and brick reach the weight limit of a standard roll-off long before the container is visually full. For projects that are primarily concrete or fill dirt, the lowboy is the right choice. It is a separate, low-profile container built specifically for dense loads and rated by tonnage rather than volume. Let us know what you are hauling when you call and we will point you to the correct container.
We discuss weight limits and debris type upfront so you know where the line is before the container is delivered. If your load comes in over the agreed weight allowance, overage fees apply on a per-ton basis. We walk you through the specifics during your free quote so there are no surprises when the truck comes to pick up.
HOA rules vary by community, and some associations require approval before a container can be placed in a driveway or on the property. We recommend checking with your HOA before scheduling delivery. We can help you understand the general requirements, but the approval process itself is between you and your association.
Permit requirements depend on the municipality and the specific street. In Jefferson Parish, placing a container on a public street rather than private property may require a permit. We know the local rules and can walk you through what applies to your address before the container is delivered. Getting that sorted ahead of time keeps your project on schedule.
Yes, we can place containers on gravel driveways and unpaved surfaces. We will talk through the specifics of your surface when you call so we can plan the placement properly. Stability and access for pickup are factors we consider before the driver arrives.
Placing boards or plywood under the container's contact points is a common way to distribute the weight and reduce the risk of surface damage. Our drivers are careful about placement and can advise on the best approach for your driveway type when they arrive. If you have concerns about a particular surface, mention it when you call and we will plan accordingly.
Our drivers are experienced with tight residential streets, cul-de-sacs, and properties where turning radius is limited. When you book, let us know about any access challenges at your address so we can send the right equipment and plan the approach. We would rather know in advance than arrive and have to problem-solve on the spot.
The area needs to be clear of overhead obstructions like tree branches, power lines, and overhangs, and the surface needs to be accessible for the roll-off truck. A general rule is to have the drop zone clear for at least the length of the container plus some additional room for the truck to maneuver. When you describe your location, we can give you more specific guidance based on the container size you are renting.
Fair price every time. On-time delivery every time. No shortcuts.
We back up every rental with the same commitment we have held since 1988: show up when we say we will, deliver clean equipment, and make the whole process simple for the customer. Whether you need a container today or you are planning a project for next week, we are ready to help you get started.

How do I choose the right dumpster size for my project?
Start by thinking about how much debris your project will generate. A single-room cleanout or small bathroom remodel usually fits a 10 or 12-yard container. A roofing job, kitchen renovation, or multi-room project typically calls for a 15 or 20-yard. Full demolitions and large commercial jobs often need a 30 or 40-yard. When you call us, we will ask a few questions about your project and help you land on the right size so you are not paying for space you do not need or making a second trip.
What is the fill line and why does it matter?
Every roll-off dumpster has a fill line marked on the inside of the container. Debris must stay at or below that line before we can legally transport the container on public roads. Overfilled containers create a safety hazard and cannot be picked up as-is. If a container is loaded above the fill line when we arrive, we will ask you to remove the excess before we can haul it. Loading heavy items on the bottom and lighter material on top helps you make the most of the available space without going over.
Transparent Flat-Rate Pricing
We quote you one number that covers delivery, pickup, and disposal within your weight limit. What we tell you upfront is what you pay, with no fees added at the end.
What items are not allowed in a roll-off dumpster?
Hazardous materials are not accepted in any of our containers. That includes paint, motor oil, solvents, pesticides, batteries, propane tanks, asbestos, and medical waste. Electronics and appliances containing refrigerants also require separate handling. If you are not sure whether a specific material is acceptable, give us a call before it goes in the bin. We would rather answer the question upfront than have a problem at the transfer station.
Do I need a permit to place a dumpster on the street in Harvey?
If the container is going on private property, such as your driveway or a job site lot, a permit is generally not required. When a container needs to sit on a public street or right-of-way in Jefferson Parish, a permit may be required through the parish. We can walk you through what that process looks like for your specific location when you call. Getting the permit question sorted before delivery keeps your project on schedule.
How does same-day delivery work?
Same-day delivery is available throughout Harvey and the surrounding Jefferson Parish area. If you call us in the morning, there is a real chance a container arrives at your location before the end of the day. Availability can vary depending on how many deliveries are already scheduled, so the earlier you call, the better your odds of locking in a same-day drop. We will confirm availability and give you a delivery window when you book.
Same-Day and Next-Day Delivery
When your project moves faster than expected, we are set up to respond. Same-day and next-day delivery are available throughout Harvey and Jefferson Parish, so call us early and we will do our best to get a container to you the same day.
What is included in the flat-rate quote?
When we give you a quote, it covers delivery, pickup, and disposal up to the agreed weight limit for the approved material type. There are no separate haul fees or dump charges added at pickup as long as you stay within those terms. We go over the weight limit and acceptable materials before the container is ever delivered so you know exactly where you stand. Our goal is that the number we quote you is the number you pay.
What happens if I go over the weight limit?
If your debris exceeds the weight allowance included in your rental, overage charges apply based on the additional tonnage. We tell you the weight limit upfront so you can plan accordingly. Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, and roofing shingles add up faster than most people expect, which is why we recommend a lowboy container for those projects rather than a standard roll-off. If you are unsure how heavy your debris will run, just ask us when you call and we will help you choose a container with the right capacity.
How do I schedule a pickup when my project is done?
Just give us a call when you are ready and we will get a truck out to you as soon as possible. You are not locked into the full rental period if the job wraps up ahead of schedule. We make it easy to close out the rental when you are done, and we will confirm a pickup window so you know when to expect us.
Honest Advice on the Right Size
We would rather spend two minutes on the phone helping you choose the right container than have you pay for a second haul. Call us, describe your project, and we will point you to the size that fits.
Do I need to be home when the dumpster is delivered or picked up?
You do not need to be present for delivery or pickup as long as we have clear instructions about where to place the container and there are no access issues. If the placement spot requires any special handling, such as a tight driveway or a gate that needs to be opened, it helps to have someone available or to walk us through the details when you call. We take care with every placement to protect your driveway and property.
Can I extend my rental if the project takes longer than expected?
Yes, just call us before your rental period ends and we will work out an extension. Extended rental terms are available for contractors and homeowners whose projects run longer than planned. We will let you know the cost of additional days when you call so there are no surprises on the invoice.
