Frequently Asked Questions
What items are NOT ALLOWED in a Trash Monkey Dumpster?
By local and federal laws, we are unable to accept any liquids (such as paint), toxic, or hazardous wastes (herbicides, pesticides, oils, and fuels), tires, mattresses, any appliances containing Freon (such as refrigerators and freezers), computer monitors, or TVs. We also don’t allow a dumpster FULL of extremely heavy materials, such as concrete or soil.
How far can I fill the dumpster?
All contents in the dumpster must be flush with the top of the container so that we can tarp each load. Please do not fill the dumpster over the sides. All items must fit inside. We cannot pick up any overloaded dumpsters. All customers will be responsible for removing any excess and will be charged a $100 return trip fee.
What is the weight limit?
The price we quote for a 15-yard dumpster includes disposal of 1 ton (2,000 lbs.) of contents. Our 20-yard dumpster price includes disposal of 2 tons (4,000 lbs.) of content. If the weight of your dumpster exceeds these allotted amounts, we charge $90 per ton, prorated. The total maximum weight of any dumpster is 6 tons.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
The rental period depends on the nature of your business and the length of time you need the dumpster. We offer seven-day, two-week, and monthly rentals. You can tailor the rental to fit your needs. We are flexible! If you need to extend the rental period for a few extra days, we charge an additional $25 per day, subject to availability.
Can I relocate the dumpster?
Once the dumpster has been placed, it CANNOT be moved by the customer. The customer is responsible for any damage or repairs to damaged containers. Please call us if the dumpster needs to be relocated, and we will be happy to assist.
