Four Steps from Booking to Pickup

Every rental moves through the same four-step workflow—placement, fill, pickup, and clean-up—so you always know what happens next and who to handle changes.

Step 1

Pick your size

Your project details help us recommend the right roll-off. We offer 10-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard, or 40-yard options. A single-room cleanout usually fits a 10-yard container, while a roof tear-off typically requires a 20 or 30-yard bin.

Step 2

Book delivery

Your address and placement spot confirm the delivery day for your container. We offer same-day delivery in the city before the noon cutoff, while further areas receive a dumpster on the next morning.

Step 3

Fill the dumpster

Loading the container through the rear door or over the side is simple, so keep debris below the fill line and watch your weight limit so that the bin stays balanced for the pickup.

Step 4

On-time pickup

Pickup happens on your scheduled date. If your project finishes early or needs more time, just phone dispatch to request an extension or a Same-Day Swap-Out. We will reroute the truck to handle your roll-off or dumpster.

Common Questions Before You Book

Placement rules and cleanup expectations top most Portland calls before the truck arrives—we put them front so you can plan ahead with confidence. Use driveway boards when needed and keep the area clear for our lowboy.

How long can I keep the dumpster?

Most rentals include a seven-day rental window, which covers most homeowner projects or small remodels. If you need more time, extensions cover the same tonnage allowance. Just call us if your dumpster requires a longer stay.

Can I get a same-day swap-out when it’s full?

In most cases: yes, you can. If you need a 30-yard roll-off mid-project, just use phone dispatch—we can coordinate a Same-Day Swap-Out. Simply contact us to schedule dumpster delivery to keep your crew loading the next container.

Will the container damage my driveway?

Every residential delivery on every Portland driveway includes heavy wooden protection planks; the hooklift truck rolls the container onto these boards—which prevents surface gouging, so that the weight stays distributed for the duration of the dumpster rental.

What happens to the load after pickup?

Every load in your container is hauled to a local transfer station on a lowboy haul. Once there, it is weighed and sorted within the Multnomah system so that the bin contents are routed for recycling.
