Step 2: Scheduling the Delivery
📅 Pick Your Ideal Drop-Off Date
Timing is everything. Ideally, schedule your dumpster delivery one day before your project starts so you’re ready to roll. We offer flexible scheduling throughout Buffalo and surrounding areas.
🚧 Prepare the Drop Zone
Make sure there’s a clear, flat spot for the dumpster to be placed. Most people use their driveway, but if you plan to place it on the street, you may need a permit depending on your town’s regulations. If you’re not sure, just ask we’re familiar with Buffalo’s local rules.
Tip: Clear away low-hanging branches, power lines, or parked cars.
🚛 What to Expect on Delivery Day
Our professional driver will arrive on time, place the dumpster exactly where you’ve requested, and use protective boards if needed to avoid driveway damage. We’ll also give you a quick run-through of the dos and don’ts.
Step 3: Using the Dumpster
🧱 Smart Loading Tips
Here’s how to make the most of your rental:
Break down large items (like furniture or boxes)
Load heavier materials first (keep it bottom-heavy for stability)
Distribute the weight evenly
Don’t stack anything over the top rim
