Dumpster rental
in Baltimore Highlands.

Baltimore Highlands is governed by Baltimore County, which wants a $100 Use Permit for a dumpster and will not allow one in the roadway, so the bin has to fit on your lot. Check first that your house is really in the County community and not in the Baltimore City neighborhood of the same name or across the City line on Patapsco Avenue. If the lot is too tight for a 12-ft box, trips to the Transway Road drop-off in Halethorpe may do the job instead.

The first decision in Baltimore Highlands

Start with an eligible hauler.

86 Dumpster (White Marsh) and Yellow Dumpster Service (Elkridge) both publish prices: 86 Dumpster charges $409 to $589 with 14 days and $136 per extra ton, while Yellow charges $449 to $649 with 10 days and $10 extra days but no published overweight rate. Clipper City Containers is the only one that names Baltimore Highlands, but it publishes no prices or terms and is based far north in White Hall.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is in the Baltimore County CDP south of the City line, not Baltimore City's Baltimore Highlands neighborhood near Patterson Park, then file the County's $100 dumpster Use Permit with a site plan.
Keep the bin on your own lot and off Annapolis Road (MD 648), a State route where SHA District 4 controls the shoulder; the County allows no dumpsters in the roadway.
Ask each hauler for its delivery charge to the southern tip of the county and whether its trucks hold a current Baltimore County collection-vehicle permit, and get days and tons in writing.

01 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Clipper City Containers

Published sizes: 12-yard (12 x 8 x 3 ft), 17-yard (14 x 8 x 5 ft), 20-yard (16 x 8 x 5 ft) and 30-yard (23 x 8 x 6 ft) roll-offs
Rental & weight terms: Rental period, included weight, overweight charges and extra-day fees are not published; request a written quote.
Price basis: Not published; the site says to call (410) 591-8614 for current pricing and that its quoted prices apply to Baltimore, Towson, Carney, Parkville and towns north of Baltimore, varying by location and debris type.

Roll-off company whose main office is at 1901 Wilson Rd, White Hall, MD 21161 (a third-party directory shows 191 Wilson Rd; the company's own site is used here). Its home page lists Baltimore Highlands by name among its service areas, alongside Lansdowne, Arbutus and Brooklyn Park, but it has no Baltimore Highlands page. White Hall is in far northern Baltimore County, so ask whether a delivery charge applies this far south. The 12-ft 12-yard box is its shortest.

Roll-off company at 5806 Allender Rd, White Marsh, MD 21162; phone (443) 671-1850. It has no Baltimore Highlands page; its Baltimore County page says it serves the county and names neighboring Lansdowne and Arbutus. Same-day delivery is offered on many orders placed by noon, subject to routes and stock. Its page says no permit is needed on a private driveway, which conflicts with Baltimore County's own Use Permit requirement; follow the County.

Baltimore Highlands dumpster: $100 County Use Permit, bin on your property only

Baltimore County issues the permit for a temporary dumpster in Baltimore Highlands, because the community has no local government. Apply to the Zoning Review Office (111 West Chesapeake Avenue, Room 124, Towson; 410-887-3391; paizoning@baltimorecountymd.gov) with the application, a $100 fee and a site plan placing the bin where it will not interfere with traffic, sight lines or a neighboring property. The permit covers a dumpster on the property itself; the County states that a dumpster may not be placed in the roadway. Without an active building permit the bin may stay 30 days (BCZR 500.4); with one, for the life of that permit. Fill it only with material from that property, keep garbage and food out and do not overfill it. Annapolis Road is a State route, so keep the bin and the truck off its shoulder unless SHA District 4 approves; streets north of the City line follow Baltimore City rules instead.

What matters locally

Transway Road drop-off is the closest County facility

Of Baltimore County's three resident drop-off centers, the Western Acceptance Facility at 3310 Transway Road in Halethorpe is the one nearest Baltimore Highlands; it is open Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. County residents may use the drop-off centers free for up to 10 visits a year, after which loads are sent to the Eastern Sanitary Landfill in White Marsh at a prorated $125 per ton. A pickup-truck load of carpet or old furniture can often go there for nothing, which is worth weighing before booking a bin. Call 410-887-2000 with questions.

Twice-a-year bulk pickup handles a few large items, not a remodel

Single-family homes and town homes get two scheduled Baltimore County bulk collections a year, each limited to three items that go to the curb after 6 p.m. the evening before; no appointment is needed. The County accepts furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics and some fixtures such as toilets, sinks, bathtubs and rolled carpet, but nothing longer than 8 ft, and bulk items are also free at all three drop-off facilities. Drywall, flooring and framing from a gut job are beyond that limit and are what a roll-off is for.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Baltimore Highlands.

Can a dumpster sit on Annapolis Road or my side street in Baltimore Highlands?

No. Baltimore County's dumpster Use Permit is for a bin placed on the property, and the County says a dumpster may not go in the roadway. Annapolis Road is also a State Highway Administration route, where work in the right-of-way is handled by SHA District 4 in Hunt Valley. Plan on a driveway or yard spot, apply with a site plan and the $100 fee, and expect 30 days unless you have an active building permit.

Where can I take a cleanout load myself instead of renting a bin?

The closest Baltimore County drop-off is the Western Acceptance Facility at 3310 Transway Road in Halethorpe, open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. County residents get 10 free visits a year and can leave bulk items there free; after the free visits, loads go to the Eastern Sanitary Landfill at a prorated $125 per ton.
