Sometimes a job starts small and turns into something else. A garage cleanout becomes a full attic clear-out. A bathroom remodel exposes flooring that has to come out too. Whatever the scope when you call and whatever it becomes by the time you are done, we deliver a container that fits the work and pick it up when you are ready.
On the other end of that scale, a full property cleanout or a demolition job generates material faster than any other method can handle it. Contractors, landlords clearing a property between tenants, and homeowners working through years of accumulated material all need the same thing: a container on site, enough capacity for the load, and a pickup that happens when the work is finished rather than on somebody else's schedule. That is what we deliver to Chalmette, and we are ready to set it up with a single call.
The quote you get on the phone covers four things: the container size, the weight allowance that comes with it, the rental period, and delivery and pickup. Those four items make up the base price. What changes the number is what you add on top of them.
Container size is the biggest variable. A larger container costs more because it carries more volume and a higher weight allowance. The type of material matters too. Dense debris like concrete, soil, and roofing shingles reaches a weight limit well before the container looks full. If the load exceeds the included weight allowance, overage fees apply based on how far over it runs. Extending the rental period past what was agreed also adds to the total.
Before anything is scheduled, you get the rate on the phone and you are told what it covers. A free quote is available when you call. Ask what is included and you get a straight answer.
A different size, a different drop date, a job that doubles in scope before it is halfway done. These are not exceptions. They are how projects go.
If the container you booked turns out to be the wrong size, call us. If the job runs longer than expected, call before the scheduled pickup date and ask about an extension. The cost of additional days is explained on the call before anything is agreed. We keep you informed at every step, so there are no questions about where things stand when the schedule shifts.
Straightforward booking. Simple pricing. Solid service.
Tile, hardwood, laminate, and sheet vinyl add up fast by weight. Drywall is lighter by volume but creates a lot of dust and broken material that packs a container differently than solid debris does. Jobs that mix flooring and drywall removal need a container sized for both the volume and the combined weight, and it is worth talking through the material types on the call before settling on a size.
Shingles are among the heaviest materials that go into a roll-off container. A single layer of asphalt shingles across a standard residential roof can push a container to its weight limit before the volume looks significant. If there are multiple layers coming off, that compounds quickly. This is a job where the weight allowance matters more than the container's visual capacity, and we talk through that before delivery.
Excavation material is heavy by definition. Soil, gravel, and fill material are the jobs where a standard container can reach its weight limit with only a fraction of its volume used. The lowboy variant is built for exactly this kind of load, with a weight capacity suited to dense material that would push a standard container over its allowance fast. Ask about it specifically when the job involves digging.
After a significant storm, the material coming out of a property is mixed: structural debris, waterlogged furniture, insulation, flooring, and outdoor material all in the same load. Volume is hard to predict before the cleanup starts. Short-notice requests are welcome, and the call is the quickest way to find out what the schedule allows. Call and ask what is open.
A household cleanout covers a wide range of situations. A garage that has collected decades of material, a basement full of furniture and boxes, an attic with insulation and old belongings. The volume varies more than most people expect before they start pulling things out. Booking a container slightly larger than the estimate tends to be the better call, because a second delivery costs more than the size upgrade would have.
Converting a garage or clearing an outbuilding often involves a mix of material types: old shelving, tools, building material, and sometimes concrete or masonry if walls are coming down. The container size depends on what is staying and what is going. Talking through the scope on the call helps land on the right fit before the first load goes in.
Delivery dates are agreed on the call. Short-notice requests are common, and availability depends on the current schedule when you call. Larger projects or jobs with a firm start date are easier to plan around with a day or two of lead time, but we take short-notice requests and tell you exactly what is open when you call.
We are available every day from 8:30 AM to 9:00 PM, including weekends. Weekend delivery works the same way as any other day. Call in the morning. Ask what is open. Picked up when you're ready.
Choosing a container size is not about picking a number. It is about matching the container to what the job actually produces, and that calculation looks different for a Chalmette residential cleanout than it does for a commercial demolition.
A single-room cleanout, a garage clear-out, or a small remodel that stays in one part of the house typically calls for a container on the smaller end of the range. These jobs generate a manageable volume of lighter material, and a compact container keeps the footprint on the driveway small without leaving unused capacity you are paying for.
A full household cleanout, a roofing tear-off on a standard residential property, or a remodel that touches multiple rooms usually lands in the middle of the range. These jobs generate more volume and often more weight, particularly when flooring, drywall, and roofing material are all going in together. You know the size, the drop spot and the weight limit before you start loading.
A full demolition, a large-scale renovation, or a commercial property cleanout calls for a container at the upper end of the range. These jobs produce material faster than smaller containers can absorb it, and a swap-out mid-job costs more in time and logistics than booking the larger size from the start. For jobs involving heavy excavation material, the lowboy is worth asking about separately. Plenty of Chalmette jobs start with a look at the roll-off dumpster services page.
We deliver to Chalmette and the surrounding area throughout St. Bernard Parish, including Arabi, Meraux, and Violet. We also serve communities across the wider region, including Terrytown and Gretna. If you are working in one of these areas and are not sure whether your address is covered, call and we will confirm it on the call.
Coverage is about the work, not the distance. A contractor moving between addresses in the parish, a landlord with a property in Arabi and another in Meraux, or a homeowner in Violet planning a cleanout all reach us the same way. One call, a few questions, and the container is scheduled.
The material coming out of a storm-damaged property often mixes debris types that carry different weights and restrictions. Waterlogged material is heavier than it looks, and certain items require separate disposal. When you call, describe what you are clearing and we will confirm what goes in the container and what needs to be handled separately.
If you know the mapping is off, describe the actual location clearly when you call. Providing a nearby landmark or cross street alongside the address helps confirm the right drop location.
Concrete, brick, and similar heavy material can go in a standard container, but they reach the weight allowance quickly. For jobs that are primarily heavy debris, the lowboy variant is worth asking about when you call, since it is built around weight capacity rather than volume.
Lead time depends on the current schedule. The fastest way to find out what is available for your date is to call. Calling ahead gives you the widest choice of dates, and short-notice requests can often be accommodated depending on what the schedule allows.
Yes. If you are managing cleanouts or renovation projects at more than one address in the parish or the surrounding area, call and give us the details for each location. We work through the sizing, scheduling, and pricing for each address on the call so you have everything confirmed before the first container is delivered.
Addresses without a standard street number can sometimes be located with a good description. Call with as much detail as possible, including a cross street, a landmark, or GPS coordinates if you have them, and we will confirm whether we can find it.
That depends on the schedule and the addresses involved. Call with the locations and timing, and we will confirm what can be arranged.
Tell us the address, where you want the container placed, and what you are clearing out. We confirm the size, the price, and the delivery date on that same call. There is no back-and-forth and no waiting on a quote to arrive later.

Choosing the right container comes down to two things: how much material you are clearing and how heavy it runs. Rentals range from a compact 10-yard up to a 40-yard, with options in between sized for everything from a single-room cleanout to a full demolition. If the debris is dense, concrete, brick, or asphalt, the lowboy is worth asking about on the call. Tell us what you are working with and we will point you to the right fit before anything is scheduled.
