Renting a dumpster in St. Louis: what to know

The city has many alleys and older brick homes, while St. Louis County suburbs usually have driveways. Spring storms and hail are common. Street or alley placement generally needs a permit from your municipality, and the metro has dozens of them.

Summer storms can soak an open load and add weight. A tarp over the box between loading sessions helps.

Driveway or street?

A driveway or other private spot is the simplest option almost everywhere: no permit, and the hauler can place it on boards to protect the surface. If the street is your only option, plan for a permit and a few extra days to get it. We'll tell you what applies at your address and who files it.

What can't go in

Paint, chemicals, tires, batteries, propane tanks and appliances with refrigerant are off-limits in most places, and Missouri may add its own rules for items like electronics or mattresses. See the typical list, and we'll flag anything specific when we quote.
