Dumpster rental in Savannah, and what makes it different
Savannah is the renovation market in this region and it is not close. Sixty percent of the city's 68,000 housing units predate 1980 and more than 11,000 of them were built before 1940, which is why so much of what we haul out of here is plaster, heart pine and a century of attic. We work across Ardsley Park, the Victorian District, Starland, Midtown, Southside, Gordonston, Isle of Hope and Wilmington Island, and the rules downtown are genuinely different from the rules on the Southside.

Permits and local rules in Savannah
On a private driveway you need no permit. On the public right-of-way Savannah does require one, at $20 plus $4.00 per parking space per day, reviewed in up to four working days, and the city requires three-quarter-inch plywood under the runners and red-and-white reflective tape at each corner. We already set every can on boards, so that part is handled. Two things to know downtown: commercial containers are prohibited outright in the area bounded by River Street, East Broad, MLK Jr. Boulevard and State Street, and containers over eight cubic yards need the sanitation director's approval, which is every size we carry.
Neighbourhoods we deliver to: Landmark Historic District, Victorian District, Starland, Ardsley Park, Gordonston, Midtown, Southside, Isle of Hope, Wilmington Island.

Dumpster rental in Savannah: common questions
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Savannah, GA?
Only if the container sits on the public right-of-way. The City of Savannah charges $20 plus $4.00 per parking space per day and requires three-quarter-inch plywood under the runners and reflective tape at each corner. On a private driveway you need no permit.
Can I put a dumpster downtown in the Historic District?
Not on the street in the core. City code prohibits commercial containers in the area bounded by River Street, East Broad, MLK Jr. Boulevard and State Street, which is served by city compactors instead. Private property inside that area is a different question and we will walk it with you.
Why do you put boards under the dumpster?
To keep the steel runners off your driveway. The City of Savannah writes the same requirement into its own permit, calling for three-quarter-inch plywood under the runners, so it is the local standard rather than an upsell.
Do you serve Ardsley Park and the Victorian District?
Yes. Those are older, tighter streets so we plan placement before the truck leaves, but we run them regularly.
What size for an old house renovation?
A 20 yard. Plaster, lath and old framing are heavy, so keep an eye on the 2-ton line and ask us about a second pull rather than overfilling.
How long does the city permit take?
Up to four working days, and the city takes cashier's check or money order only. Build that into your schedule if the can has to go in the street.
What fits in a 12-yard dumpster?
A 12-yard holds about 4 to 5 pickup truck loads. That covers a garage cleanout, a single-room remodel, a roof tear-off up to roughly 25 squares, or a yard full of storm debris.
What happens if I go over 2 tons?
Every rental includes 2 tons. Anything over that is billed by the ton at the landfill rate, and we show you the scale ticket. Call for the current per-ton rate.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
Seven days is included. If you need longer, call before the pickup date and we will extend it rather than charge you a surprise.
What can't go in the dumpster?
No tires, paint, chemicals, batteries, appliances with refrigerant, televisions or medical waste. Everything else from a normal household or jobsite is fine.
Nearby areas we also serve: Garden City, Pooler, Port Wentworth, Richmond Hill.
