Most customers in Allentown choose driveway or curbside placement, but we can also deliver to:

  • Construction or demolition sites

Our drivers make sure the dumpster is positioned safely and is easy to access.

We take precautions to protect your property during delivery. If you want extra protection, you can place plywood or boards under the wheels.

All debris must stay below the top rim. Overfilled dumpsters cannot be hauled legally, and evenly distributed loads help ensure safe pickup.
