Does my waste get recycled?

How high can I fill my dumpster?

You can fill your dumpster as high as you like, as long as you do not load it higher compared to the sides of the container. Overfilling the dumpster could cause the waste or debris to slide off as the dumpster is loaded onto the truck or as the truck is driving. Overloaded or big-boned dumpsters are not really safe, and businesses will not take dangerous loads in order to protect drivers and passengers on the road.

In case your load is too high, it will not have the ability to be tarped so you will need to remove some of the debris before it can be hauled away. This may result in additional costs if it requires you to keep the dumpster for a longer amount of time. Remember to maintain your load no higher compared to the sides of the dumpster, and you'll be fine.
