Helpful hints during your dumpster rental and how to avoid additional charges:

1. Avoid overfilling, do not fill past top of dumpster. We cannot haul due to safety concerns. A dry run fee can be added to your bill.

2. Do not move dumpsters! You are responsible for damage to the dumpsters!

3. Know what your waste materials weight and how many tons you are allowed. If your order has been approved for heavy items such as concrete please ask how much you can put in the dumpster. If you over load you could end up taking the debris back out an ordering another dumpster and incurring a dry run fee. Remember you must let us know when loading heavy items.

4. Always ask what you can dispose of, items such as tires, chemicals, appliances, yard waste, railroad ties, asbestos, and medical waste have a special way of handling. They have additional disposal fees or we may not be able to accept currently.

5. MOD does not guarantee delivery times, but always will try to accommodate. If you need the dumpster delivered at a certain time, please schedule delivery for the day before.

6. If you need the dumpster for longer than originally scheduled, that’s no problem just let us know! If you do not call in for additional days we will pick up for the scheduled date.
