Roll-off dumpster rental in Denver
Approx. 16 road miles from the yard, around 28 minutes.
Denver is approx. 16 road miles west-southwest of the yard, around 28 minutes. It is a Census-designated place of 2,697 at the 2020 Census, in unincorporated Lincoln County, so County rules apply.
Lincoln County Code says no one may run a solid waste collection or transportation business without all required County permits (§52.33(A)), that those permits expire every year on September 1 (§52.33(E)), and that a collector must hold both a franchise and a licence from the County (§52.34(G)); franchises for construction and demolition waste may be non-exclusive (§52.34(L)). So we check Lincoln County's rules before booking a container in Denver.

What comes out of Denver properties
Roofs in 10s and 20s, kitchens and baths in 20s, clear-outs in 20s and 30s, and a 10 or 15 for concrete, brick and dirt — heavy material goes in the smaller boxes because of weight limits. Whoever hauls it, North Carolina bans used oil, antifreeze, lead-acid batteries, whole tires, white goods and consumer computers and TVs from landfills (G.S. 130A-309.10(f)); from 1 December 2026 lithium-ion batteries join the list ((f)(16)).

Sizes
Choosing a container size in Denver
Weight is what usually decides the size, not how much room the pile takes up.
| Size | Dimensions | Capacity | Weight included | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard Dumpster | about 14 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 3.5 ft high | about 3 pickup truck loads | 1–2 tons | Small bathroom and kitchen remodels, garage cleanouts, roofing tear-offs, concrete, tile and asphalt removal, and other heavy debris within the weight limit. |
| 15 Yard Dumpster | about 16 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 4.5 ft high | about 4–5 pickup truck loads | 2–3 tons | Multi-room and garage cleanouts, kitchen and bathroom remodels, flooring and carpet removal, light-to-medium roof tear-offs, landscaping and yard cleanup, and fence or deck removal. |
| 20 Yard Dumpster | about 22 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 4.5 ft high | about 6 pickup truck loads | 3–4 tons | Whole-home cleanouts, multi-room renovations, roofing projects, landscaping debris, moving cleanups and light demolition with mixed construction debris. |
| 30 Yard Dumpster | about 22 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 6 ft high | about 9 pickup truck loads | 4–5 tons | Multi-room renovations, estate and move-out cleanouts, office and retail remodels, light demolition, construction debris and community or HOA cleanups. |

Permits, placement and who may haul in Denver
Who may haul — the rule that matters: §52.33(A) bars anyone from the business of solid waste collection or transportation before receiving all required Lincoln County permits, which expire annually on September 1 (§52.33(E)). §52.34(A) lets the board grant general or exclusive franchises, §52.34(G) requires both a franchise and a licence from the County, and §52.34(L) allows non-exclusive franchises for commercial, industrial, institutional and construction and demolition waste. So we check Lincoln County's rules before booking a container in Denver. We're licensed and insured.
Disposal: the Lincoln County landfill and convenience sites accept only waste generated inside Lincoln County; out-of-county waste will not be accepted.
Placement: on a state road, G.S. 136-93 bars any obstruction without a written NCDOT permit, and we found no permit path for a temporary roll-off — so a container goes on the driveway or job site.
Knocking something down: the state Health Hazards Control Unit (NC DHHS) needs a DHHS 3768 notice for the demolition of a building, whether or not it contains asbestos; work may start on the tenth working day. Asbestos never goes in our containers — tell us if the survey finds any.

How it works
Booking a dumpster in Denver
Booking a container here takes one phone call and about five minutes.
- 1
Call and tell us the job
One short conversation. We ask the location, what you are clearing — a cleanout, a renovation, a roof, a yard, a job site — roughly how much there is, and how much room the driveway or lot gives us.
- 2
We size it and quote it flat
You get one number that can cover delivery, pickup, disposal, the standard rental period and an included weight allowance. If a smaller box does the job we will say so. If it is concrete, shingles or dirt, we say up front that weight decides the size.
- 3
Delivered where you want it
The driver sets the container on the driveway, lot or job site where you asked, with protective boards under it if you want them. Often same-day or next-day, depending on availability. You do not need to be home.
- 4
Load at your own pace
Keep it level with the top rim and keep the banned items out — paint and solvents, chemicals, oil and fuel, batteries, tires, propane tanks and gas cylinders, medical waste, asbestos, large appliances, and computers or TVs. Need more time or a swap mid-job? One call.
- 5
We haul it and dispose of it right
The load is covered and goes to a facility permitted for that kind of waste, with metal, concrete, asphalt, cardboard and yard waste recycled through local facilities whenever possible. You get your driveway back the way you left it.
