Dumpster Placement Requirements
If the dumpster can't fit on the property, a street permit is required. Street permits for your dumpster in the city of Milwaukee are pulled by the dumpster company. In other local municipalities, street permits are acquired by the homeowner or general contractor.
Flashing barricades can be a requirement for some municipalities, whereas cones or reflective markings can suffice. If a rental dumpster is blocked or overfilled, a trip fee may be applied depending on the circumstances. Contact us with questions on dumpster rental placement on your property.

Long Rental Periods
With Milwaukee Dumpster Rental, you can rent your dumpster for 1 to 15 days for the same low price. Just contact us and we’ll pick it up when you’re ready.
After the 15-day period expires, a $12/day pricing system begins, so pricing stays affordable if you need extra time.
You’ll receive an additional $20 off your already low dumpster rental price by ordering online. Milwaukee Dumpster Rental delivers some of the best service, price and value for dumpster rentals in the greater Milwaukee area.
Milwaukee Dumpsters for Rent
Roll-off or Lugger Dumpster?
Roll-off dumpsters are the most common type of dumpster seen on construction sites. Roll-offs are rectangular in shape and typically have a swing gate on the back for walk-in loading.
Lugger dumpsters are hexagonal in shape and are commonly used for storing scrap metal. Luggers have a flat bottom and a smaller base with higher sides that taper outward from the base upward. They don’t have a loading gate, but they do have a low side in the back. Luggers are delivered on smaller/lighter trucks, making them a great dumpster option for tighter areas.

Save on Dumpsters for Roofing Projects
Re-roofing homes and businesses in Milwaukee can be a tough job. Milwaukee Dumpster Rental can save our roofing customers hundreds of dollars when you consider tonnage over the ton cap. Waste container rental costs for roofing are lower because asphalt roofing materials can be recycled into roads and playgrounds, allowing us to bypass the dump.

Tips for Rental Dumpster Delivery & Pickup
Good planning helps prevent delays and unnecessary charges. Keep delivery access clear and prepare the drop site in advance:
- Delivery and Pick-Up Times:
Dumpsters are delivered and picked up in and around a 24-hour period. Allow for 48 hours around holidays and weekends. Call for weekend deliveries and pick-ups. - Protect Your Driveway:
We recommend laying down wood to mark the placement of your container. Laying down a pair of eight-foot-long 2”x6” boards is an excellent way to protect your driveway from scraping. - Clear the Area:
Make sure delivery and removal areas stay accessible. If the dumpster cannot fit on your property, a street permit may be required. Dumpsters can’t block public ways such as sidewalks or alleyways.
Junk Removal Service
Milwaukee Dumpster Rental also offers junk removal pickup services at affordable prices. Some projects don’t require a full dumpster, especially if space is limited or waste volume is smaller. Stage items in your driveway or alleyway and our team can load and haul debris for you.
How to Save Money on a Dumpster Rental
Saving money isn’t only about the lowest advertised rate. Real value comes from choosing the right dumpster, avoiding overages and preventing unnecessary fees.
- Choose the right dumpster size for your project
- Ask about ton caps and overage fees before ordering
- Use recycling dumpsters for clean concrete/asphalt/dirt loads
- Avoid prohibited items and hazardous materials
- Don’t overfill above the top of the dumpster walls
