Red roll-off dumpster on a residential driveway with building material stacked alongside in Katy, Texas

Most of the containers we place in Katy go on somebody's driveway. Kitchen and bathroom remodels, garage and shed clearouts, flooring replacement, detached garage and screened porch rebuilds, and the slow accumulation of thirty years that comes out when a family finally tackles the spare room. It is not glamorous work but it is the work we do most, and it is the work where getting the details right matters most — because unlike a construction site, this is your home and your driveway.

The two questions that decide whether a residential rental goes well are both answered before the truck leaves the yard. What surface is the container going on, and how heavy is the material really? Get those right and the rest is straightforward.

What residential jobs look like around Katy

Housing stock around here splits roughly into three eras and each produces a different kind of job. The old mill and rail-town housing — West Katy, downtown Cinco Ranch, the older streets in Rosenberg and Mission Bend — is pre-war frame construction with wood siding and narrow drives. The 1970s through 1990s subdivisions around Katy are slab-on-grade and now past due on roofs, kitchens and bathrooms. And the newer building along the US 72 corridor is mostly builder work and first-owner upgrades.

Western Texas adds two wrinkles. The subsoil is clay that holds water and drains slowly, so a placement that works in September may not work in March — and most rural drives cross a steep driveway that was never sized for a loaded truck. And a great deal of what comes out of a house here is heavier than it looks: plaster and lath, old tile, and absolutely anything that has been wet.

What goes in — and what cannot

Accepted material

  • Furniture, mattresses, carpet and rugs
  • Kitchen and bathroom fixtures, cabinets and countertops
  • Flooring — tile, laminate, hardwood, vinyl
  • Drywall, timber, trim and doors
  • Appliances with refrigerant professionally evacuated
  • Screened porch frames and aluminium
  • Fencing, decking and small outbuildings
  • General household clutter and boxed junk

Never accepted

  • Paint, stains, solvents and thinners
  • Pool chemicals, pesticides and fertiliser
  • Batteries of any kind
  • Tyres
  • Propane and gas cylinders
  • Any material containing asbestos
  • Liquids of any kind
  • Hot ashes or smouldering material

If you are unsure, ask before you load it. Prohibited material found in a load costs far more to deal with after the fact than a thirty-second phone call costs now. Harris County runs household chemical and white goods drop-off at the the Grand Parkway site for most of what we cannot take.

How the booking works

  1. 1

    Call and describe the job

    Tell us what you're clearing and where you are. Adriana Vasquez or a dispatcher will size it with you in about three minutes — no forms, no waiting on an email quote.

  2. 2

    Lock in a flat rate

    You get one number that covers delivery, the rental period, pickup, and disposal up to your weight allowance. We tell you the overage rate up front so nothing lands on your invoice later.

  3. 3

    We deliver and protect

    Our driver calls ahead, lays boards under the rails on driveways and pavers, and sets the can exactly where you want it — doors facing the work.

  4. 4

    Fill it, we haul it

    Load to the fill line, call when you're done, and we pull it. Most loads run to a permitted Type IV construction and demolition landfill in the Houston region, where recoverable material is pulled out first.

Answers

Residential Dumpster Rental — common questions

Will the dumpster fit on my driveway?
Almost certainly. Every size we run is eight feet wide, which fits a standard single-car driveway. What varies is length: a 10 yard needs about 12 feet, a 20 yard about 22 feet, and the truck needs roughly 10 feet of clear run behind that plus about 22 feet of overhead clearance to tip the bed. If your driveway is short or there is a low branch over the approach, tell us and we will size around it.
How long can I keep it?
Our standard period covers almost every homeowner job comfortably. If your weekend turns into two weekends, call and we will extend at a modest daily rate. We would much rather do that than have you rush the work or overfill the container.
Do I need to be home for delivery?
No. Plenty of our residential deliveries go to empty driveways. Tell us exactly where you want it — "left side of the drive, doors facing the garage" is perfect — and the driver will place it and send a photo if you ask.
Can I put a little bit of paint in if the cans are dried out?
Fully hardened latex paint in an open can is generally acceptable, but liquid paint of any kind is not. Dry it out with hardener or cat litter and leave the lid off — that is what the county landfill requires — or use the county household hazardous waste collection.
What if I fill it before the rental period ends?
Call us and we will pull it early at no extra cost. Finishing ahead of schedule never costs you money with us.
