Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Bensley.

Bensley is a village more than a century old on Richmond's southern edge, and it has no local government, so County and state rules apply. Chesterfield licenses anyone paid to haul waste, so ask the company you hire about its County license. The streets are generally VDOT secondary roads, and putting anything in the right-of-way calls for a VDOT land use permit, so plan for the driveway or yard, where County zoning allows a temporary container for up to 90 days. For small loads, the Northern Area Convenience Center on Warbro Road takes residential debris at $15 a pickup load.

The first decision in Bensley

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That publishes prices ($379 to $459 for 6 to 20 yards, typically 7 days) and uses compact bins about 10 to 11 ft long, but it does not say how much weight is included and may add mileage. Meridian Waste covers both Bensley ZIP codes and offers larger 10- to 40-yard roll-offs, yet publishes no prices or terms and dispatches from Petersburg. Freedom Dumpsters, listed for comparison, publishes the most complete terms (2 tons and 7 days included, $75 a ton and $25 a day after that) from a base in Powhatan.

Your local checklist

Confirm your parcel lies in Chesterfield County and not in the City of Richmond, since 23234 and 23237 addresses straddle the line north of Bensley.
Measure your driveway or side yard before booking; a 10- to 11-ft bin may fit where a 20-ft roll-off will not, and the street needs a VDOT permit.
Ask the hauler to confirm it holds a current Chesterfield County hauler license and to put included tons, overage and extra-day charges in writing.

Driveway or yard first; a VDOT land use permit for the street

Chesterfield's residential streets are generally state secondary roads maintained by VDOT, not by the County (Henrico is the local exception that runs its own roads). VDOT requires a land use permit before anyone performs an activity or makes temporary use of state right-of-way, applied for online or through the Chesterfield Residency, and its rule on trash containers (24VAC30-151-640) allows them only under a single use permit, placed as close to the right-of-way line as possible, with written permission from the adjacent property owners. We found no VDOT or County page that names roll-off dumpsters specifically, so do not assume a street placement is allowed without a permit. On your own lot, the County's 2026 zoning ordinance (Chapter 19.2) treats temporary containers under Sec. 19.2-32-34, which allows them for up to 90 days on the lot or driveway; the masonry screening standard in Sec. 19.2-41.I.3 is written for permanent dumpster enclosures. Call 1-800-FOR-ROAD if you are not sure who maintains your street.

What matters locally

Northern Area Convenience Center takes residential debris for a fee

Chesterfield's nearest drop-off for Bensley households is the Northern Area Convenience Center at 3200 Warbro Road in Midlothian (the Southern center is at 6700 Landfill Drive in Chester). Both open daily 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. for County residents with ID or proof of residency. Household trash is $9 per pickup load ($18 with a trailer of 10 ft or less), and residential construction debris is $15 per pickup load or $30 with a short trailer, one residential property per visit, with proof of the work site possibly required. Commercial construction debris, dirt, dedicated concrete or asphalt loads, asbestos, stumps and dump trucks are refused.

No County curbside trash: private haulers handle it

Chesterfield's Waste and Resource Recovery Division says household trash and recycling pickup is provided by private waste companies rather than the County, so a Bensley cleanout either goes to a convenience center or into a rented roll-off. At the centers, refrigerant appliances cost $15 each, other large appliances $10, mattresses $9 (free with a household trash load) and tires $2 off the rim or $5 on it.

Chesterfield zoning: temporary containers and dumpster screening

Chesterfield's zoning ordinance (Chapter 19.2, in effect since January 2026) lets a portable storage container sit on a Bensley lot or driveway for up to 90 days, and its definition leaves out boxes hauling debris from an active construction site. A separate clause, § 19.2-41.I.3, asks for masonry or concrete screening around solid waste storage areas such as dumpsters, built to match the building they serve; that describes a permanent trash enclosure rather than a short-term cleanout bin, but the ordinance does not say so outright, so ask the Planning Department if your bin will stay more than a few weeks.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Bensley.

Can I park a dumpster on my street in Bensley?

Only with VDOT's approval. Chesterfield's residential streets are generally VDOT-maintained secondary roads, and VDOT requires a land use permit for any activity or temporary use in its right-of-way; its trash-container rule allows containers only under a single use permit with neighbors' written consent. We found no page that addresses roll-offs specifically, so place the box on your driveway or yard, or ask the VDOT Chesterfield Residency before using the street.

Does the dumpster company need a Chesterfield license?

Yes. Chesterfield County Code Sec. 11-12 requires anyone paid to collect, transport or dump waste to hold a license from the Director of General Services, and Sec. 11-13 adds a $5 annual license for each truck plus a surety bond. The County does not provide curbside trash itself; private companies do. Ask your supplier to confirm its license is current.
