What is a roll off dumpster?

The roll off dumpsters we rent out are rectangular, open-top dumpsters with wheels. They're designed to be transported by special trucks to make it easier for us to get them to and from your location. 

Our dumpster rental company services both residential and commercial customers in the Louisville area. In other words, our heavy-duty durable dumpsters can even handle large volumes of bricks and concrete. Just contact us ahead of time so we can find the right dumpster size for you. 

What are the advantages of a roll off dumpster?

For starters, a roll off dumpster vastly expands how much waste you can dispose of in one go. That’s especially helpful when you’re embarking on a large-volume home improvement project and want that junk removal to happen as quickly as possible. 

Other perks? Wheels make dumpster placement easy, whether you want to keep it in the driveway or near the front door. Accidentally left it in a shared driveway or are blocking any utilities? Just roll it away. 

Finally, all our dumpsters are constructed with heavy-duty materials for utmost durability, no matter the challenge.
