What dumpster sizes do you offer in Seattle?We offer 10-yard and 20-yard dumpsters to accommodate projects of all sizes. Our 10-yard dumpsters are perfect for residential cleanouts, small renovation projects, or landscaping projects with dense debris. While our 20-yard dumpsters handle larger construction jobs and commercial needs. Both sizes are available throughout the Seattle-Bellevue metro areas for jobs of any size.
-
How much does a dumpster rental cost?Our dumpsters start at $330 for a 7-day rental, including roundtrip delivery.. Dump Fees are $170/ton*, but fluctuate based on market rates, which we pass through and never upcharge. . After the first 7 days, a daily rental fee of $15 will apply. This resets once the dumpster is swapped out for an empty one. We pride ourselves on transparent pricing with no hidden fees. * a 5% fuel surcharge applies to all dump fees.
-
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster?We typically deliver within 24-48 hours , with same-day delivery often available for urgent needs (when requested before 9 AM). As a locally-owned Seattle company based in Ballard, we offer faster response times than national providers, especially for neighborhoods in our immediate service area.
-
Where can the dumpster be placed?Dumpsters can be placed on driveways, construction sites, parking lots, or on the street with proper permits. Our CDL-certified drivers are experts at navigating Seattle's challenging neighborhoods and can place dumpsters in tight spaces. We'll work with you to find the optimal location that balances convenience and accessibility.
-
Do I need a permit for my dumpster?No permit is needed for placement on private property (driveways, yards, parking lots). Street placement requires a Street Use permit from the Seattle Department of Transportation. We can guide you through the permit process and often suggest placement alternatives that don't require permits.
-
What makes Big Mike's Recycle different from other dumpster companies?As a Seattle native-owned company with construction industry experience, we understand local needs better than national chains. We offer quick 24-48 hour response times, trained CDL drivers skilled at tight space maneuvering, transparent pricing, and a commitment to recycling and environmental responsibility.
