Who will I be talking to?
An independent local dumpster rental company. How it works explains the referral.
Can renters book a dumpster?
Yes, with the landlord's okay for where it sits. Get that in writing before the drop.
How long can I keep it?
Each company sets its own rental period and the rate for extra days. Ask both when you call.
Can I book a portable toilet too?
Yes. Portable toilet rental covers events and remodels.
What size do I need for a kitchen remodel?
Often a 15-yard; a 20 if a bathroom is coming out at the same time. See remodel debris.
Why does the company ask what the debris is?
Because weight, not space, is the limit for shingles, concrete and dirt. The answer decides the size.
Can I fill it above the rim?
No. A load sticking out can't be hauled safely, and the driver may ask you to take it down.
Does a dumpster on the street need a permit in Davenport?
Yes, the city's Obstructions and Encroachments Permit. See permits in Davenport.
Will the city haul my remodel debris?
No. Davenport doesn't collect construction waste that won't fit in the garbage cart.
Where do paint and chemicals go?
The Household Hazardous Material Facility at 5640 Carey Ave. More in what can't go in.
Got a pile and a date in mind?
One call reaches an independent dumpster rental company working the Davenport area. A rough idea of what's going in, and where the container can sit, is all you need to start.
