Bin rental,
answered

The questions dispatch gets every day — pricing, weight limits, permits and what fits where. If yours isn't here, call and ask. It's a 30-second phone call.

Pricing & rental period

Money and time

How much does a bin rental cost?

Our bins are flat rate: $349 for a 10 yard, $399 for a 14, $449 for a 20 and $649 for a 40. That price includes delivery, pickup, a 7-day rental and disposal up to the bin's tonnage allowance.

There's no fuel surcharge and no environmental fee bolted on at the end. The only thing that changes the number is going over the weight allowance, which is billed by the ton against a certified scale ticket.

How long do I get to keep the bin?

Seven days is included in the flat rate. If the job runs long, call before your pickup date and we'll extend it at a daily rate.

If you finish early, call and we'll usually collect it sooner at no extra charge — an empty bin sitting on your driveway is a bin we can't rent to anyone else.

What happens if I go over the weight allowance?

The bin still gets hauled. Every load crosses a certified scale on the way to the facility, and anything over your bin's included tonnage is billed by the ton at the rate shown on your quote.

The scale ticket goes on your invoice, so you can see exactly what the bin weighed rather than taking our word for it.

Do you offer contractor accounts?

Yes. Contractors running steady work can set up an account with net terms, consolidated monthly invoicing and priority scheduling.

Insurance and WSIB certificates are available same day for general contractors who need them on file before you can start on site.

Sizing & weight

Picking the right bin

Can I put concrete, brick or soil in any size bin?

No — heavy material goes in a 10 or a 14 yard bin only. A single cubic yard of broken concrete weighs roughly a ton, so a 20 or 40 yard bin filled with concrete is far over the legal axle weight and the truck physically cannot take it away.

Tell dispatch you're loading heavy material when you book and we'll send the right bin. Filling the wrong one means digging it back out by hand, which is a bad afternoon for everyone. More detail on concrete bins, asphalt bins and soil & fill bins.

What size bin do I need?

For heavy material — concrete, asphalt, soil — a 10 or 14 is the answer regardless of volume, because you'll hit the weight limit long before you fill it.

For mixed renovation waste: a bathroom or kitchen gut is usually a 10, a full driveway tear-out or a roof is a 14, a whole-home renovation is a 20, and new build or site clearing is a 40.

Between two sizes? Describe the job to dispatch. We'd rather size it right than send a truck twice.

How much space does a bin need?

Plan for the length of the bin plus about 10 feet of clearance behind it so the truck can roll it off, and roughly 22 feet of overhead clearance — the hoist goes up before the bin comes down.

A 10 or 14 yard bin fits comfortably on a standard two-car driveway. Watch for low branches, hydro lines and garage door frames, and clear any parked cars before the driver arrives.

Can I fill the bin above the top rail?

No. A bin loaded above the sides can't legally be tarped and hauled on the road, and the driver will have to leave it until it's levelled off.

Load level with the top rail, spread heavy material across the floor rather than piling it in one corner, and keep the rear door clear if you plan to walk material in.

What if I fill the bin before the job is done?

Call and we'll swap it. We haul the full bin away and set a fresh empty in the same spot, usually the same day, so your crew isn't standing around.

You're billed for the second bin as a new rental, not as a penalty.

Delivery & placement

Getting it on site

How quickly can you deliver a bin?

Call before 3 PM and there's a strong chance your bin is on site the next morning. Same-day drops are often possible if a truck is already running your way.

We're a dump trucking company first, so there are trucks moving across the west GTA all day rather than a single route that's already left the yard.

Will the bin damage my driveway?

We put boards down under the rollers on every residential drop, which spreads the load and keeps the steel off your asphalt or interlock. The driver also sweeps the drop area before pulling out.

Fresh asphalt laid within the last twelve months is the one surface we'll flag — it can still mark under load in hot weather. Tell us and we'll talk through placement before the truck rolls.

Do I need a permit for a bin?

Not if the bin sits on your own driveway or private property, which covers the large majority of our drops.

You generally do need a permit if the bin has to sit on a city street, boulevard or sidewalk. That permit is the property owner's or contractor's responsibility to arrange, and the rules differ between Mississauga, Brampton, Caledon and Vaughan — call your municipality before booking a street placement.

Can you deliver gravel or topsoil at the same time?

Yes — and this is the reason to call us rather than a bins-only company. We own the dump trucking fleet, so the truck that takes your full bin away can bring back ¾" clear, Granular A, sand, screening or topsoil on the same trip.

One vendor, one delivery window, one invoice. You're not paying a second trip charge or waiting on another company's gravel truck. See the Driveway Package.

What areas do you serve?

Mississauga, Brampton, Caledon, Bolton, Georgetown, Vaughan, Woodbridge, Etobicoke, Milton, Oakville, Halton Hills and North York. We're based in Mississauga and run across Peel, Halton and York daily.

Outside that list? Call anyway — if a truck is already headed that way, we'll usually make it work.

What goes in

Materials & disposal

What can't go in the bin?

No paint, solvents, oil, fuel, propane tanks, batteries, tires, asbestos, electronics, fridges or air conditioners containing refrigerant, medical waste, contaminated soil, or liquids of any kind.

Transfer stations reject loads containing hazardous material and the whole load comes back to us, so we have to charge for sorting and re-tipping. Peel Region takes household hazardous waste free at its Community Recycling Centres, which is usually the fastest route for paint and batteries. Full lists on accepted materials.

Do you recycle what you collect?

Concrete, asphalt, brick and clean fill go to a recycling facility rather than landfill, where they're crushed and reused as aggregate.

Mixed construction waste goes to a transfer station where recoverable wood, metal and cardboard are sorted out. If you need diversion figures for a LEED submission or a municipal contract, ask and we'll provide them with your invoice.
