Helpful Advice, Project Ideas & Local Updates

If you’re planning a home cleanout, remodel, landscaping project, or move, you may be wondering: Do I actually have enough room for a dumpster in my driveway? The good news is that our compact residential dumpsters are designed to fit in spaces where traditional commercial roll off containers will not.

At Bin There Dump That East Valley, our compact 10, 15, and 20 Yard Dumpsters are designed with residential driveways in mind. Even our largest 20 Yard Dumpster has a footprint of 8 feet wide by 11 feet long, making it possible to place a dumpster on many standard, short, or otherwise limited space driveways.

99% of the time the answer is yes — the bigger challenge can be finding one that fits in your driveway. Traditional commercial roll-off dumpsters are 22 feet long and often do not fit in a residential driveway. When a dumpster has to be placed in the street, HOA restrictions are more likely to become an issue. That said, every community has its own rules, so it’s always a good idea to double-check with your HOA before scheduling a rental. At Bin There Dump That East Valley, all of our custom-sized dumpsters are compact enough to fit in residential driveways, which means HOA restrictions are rarely an issue for our customers.

Placing a dumpster on your driveway is one of the biggest concerns homeowners have before renting one. The good news is that the right dumpster rental company takes steps to help protect your property. In this blog, we’ll explain what can cause driveway damage, how compact residential-friendly dumpsters reduce the risk, and why our Protective Driveway Boards are placed under every dumpster to help safeguard concrete, pavers, and decorative surfaces.
