5. Where Can I Place a Dumpster?
Most homeowners prefer to have their dumpster placed in the driveway. However, if space is an issue, street placement may be an option.

Street Placement: In Buffalo, you may need a permit to place a dumpster on the street. Check with your local municipality for regulations.
