Yes, there are some important placement restrictions. A dumpster must be placed on a flat, stable surface that our trucks can easily access—typically a driveway or other hard, level area. It should not block sidewalks, public roads, fire lanes, or emergency access points. Avoid placing bins near low-hanging wires, tree branches, fences, or soft ground like grass or gravel that could shift or sink under the weight. At 310-DUMP, we’ll assess your location and recommend the safest, most efficient placement option.
