Three steps, one conversation

1

Schedule it

Dial (920) 507-4922 or tap any button on this page. Describe the project and the date — we lock in the size and placement while you're still on the phone.

2

We drop it off

We place the dumpster right where you want it, boards laid down, door facing the direction you chose. You don't have to be there.

3

We remove it

Call or text once you've finished loading. We come grab it and haul everything out, typically by the next business day.

Six reasons Oakland residents choose us

A full week included

Every dumpster comes with seven days on location, and scheduling pickup is one text away.

Same-day if you call early

Place your order before 1pm and we can usually have a container on your driveway that same afternoon.

Your driveway stays protected

Every driver places boards beneath the rails before the dumpster makes contact with your pavement.

Everything handled in one call

Let us know the project and the date. We lock in the size and drop location before you hang up.

Correct size on the first try

Describe your project and we'll recommend the right container, including when a smaller one is enough.

Fully licensed and insured

Covered for both residential and commercial projects throughout CA. Certificates available upon request.

Accepted materials — and restricted items

If you're not sure whether something can go in, check with us before loading it — that prevents a refused haul.

Allowed

General household items and furniture
Renovation and demolition debris
Asphalt and composite shingles
Framing lumber, plywood and trim pieces
Drywall sheets and plaster
Carpet, underlayment and floor coverings
Kitchen cabinets and countertop material
Deck boards and fence panels
Appliances that do not contain freon
Packed boxes, old clothing and children's toys

Prohibited — never load these

Paints, wood stains and chemical solvents
Used motor oil, gasoline and diesel fuel
Pressurized propane cylinders
Vehicle and truck tires
Any type of battery
Refrigerators and AC units containing freon
Asbestos-containing or suspect insulation material
Medical waste or biohazardous material
Railroad ties and creosote-treated lumber
Herbicides, pesticides and swimming pool chemicals
Note: yard waste, soil, concrete and brick are too heavy for a mixed load and require a dedicated heavy-debris container — Call (920) 507-4922 and we'll bring the right one.

Family-operated, never a middleman

Christopher Miller has been moving debris across Oakland for 18 years — starting on another company's truck, now running their own. When you dial (920) 507-4922, you reach the family that owns the containers, drives the routes and answers the phone on Saturday mornings.

A lot of dumpster websites are brokers who hand your job off to the lowest bidder. We are the crew that actually arrives.

Hear it from our customers

“Hired them for a roofing tear-off, then again for a clear-out a month later. Same team both times, same dispatcher who actually answers the line.”
Angela P. · Roof tear-off
“The driver scouted the placement area with me before lowering anything and positioned the door right where I needed it for wheelbarrow access.”
Teresa W. · Deck removal
“We loaded it quicker than planned and they dropped off a second container the following morning without any hassle.”
J. Alvarez · Estate cleanout

Frequently asked questions

Is a permit required in Oakland?
Not when the dumpster sits on a private driveway. If it needs to go on a public road, Oakland requires a right-of-way permit — we'll point you to the exact office to contact.
Where exactly will the dumpster go?
Any spot our truck can safely reach — your driveway, a side yard, or the street if you have a permit. Let us know which direction you want the door to face and we'll position it accordingly.
Which materials are allowed in the container?
General household items, furniture, renovation debris, roofing, deck material, flooring and drywall. No paint, fuel, tires, batteries or freon-containing appliances. Yard waste, dirt and concrete go in a separate heavy-debris container.
Which size do most homeowners go with?
The 20 yard. It handles a kitchen renovation or a full-home clear-out, and it's the container we drop off most often in Oakland. If your project calls for less space, we'll let you know and bring the 10 or 15 instead.
Is same-day dumpster delivery available?
In most cases, yes — call before 1pm on a weekday and we'll fit you into that afternoon's route. After 1pm you'll be on the first run the following morning.
