Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Cedar Heights.

Cedar Heights has no town government, so Prince George's County rules apply unless your lot is actually inside Seat Pleasant, Fairmount Heights or another municipality that shares the Capitol Heights 20743 mailing address. Plan to keep the bin on your driveway; a County street needs a call to DPIE and a numbered State route needs SHA District 3. If you get County trash service and only have a few large items, bulky pickup may make a roll-off unnecessary.

The first decision in Cedar Heights

Start with an eligible hauler.

Next Day Dumpsters is the only one with a page for the Capitol Heights mailing area and a nearby Beltsville yard, but it starts at 15 yards and publishes no prices or terms. Yellow Dumpster Service is the only one that publishes prices ($449 to $649 for 10 to 30 yards, 10 days, 1 to 3 tons included), serving Prince George's County from Elkridge. Patuxent Roll-Off in Crofton covers the County with the widest range, from small-truck driveway dumpsters to 40-yard boxes, but publishes no prices or terms.

Your local checklist

Check your property record before you book: Cedar Heights, Seat Pleasant, Fairmount Heights and Capitol Heights all use Capitol Heights 20743 addresses, and only unincorporated lots follow the County rules described here.
Measure your driveway against the bin: Yellow's smallest box is 12 ft long and Next Day's smallest is 15 yards; if it won't fit off the street, call DPIE about a Site/Road permit, or SHA District 3 if the street is a numbered State route.
Ask the company for its Prince George's County collection license, the approved disposal facility it uses, and the included tonnage and overweight rate in writing, since only Yellow publishes tonnage.

Cedar Heights dumpster: County rules apply; a County road needs a DPIE Site/Road permit; numbered State routes go to SHA District 3

Cedar Heights is unincorporated, so Prince George's County's Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement (DPIE) is the agency for work in County roads. DPIE says a Site/Road permit is needed for work inside the public right-of-way (the roadway area) or on private property in a way that may affect it. The County has no permit written specifically for a dumpster on a house driveway, and no County page reviewed for this guide sets a fee, time limit or lead time for a dumpster parked on a County street. That is not the same as saying no permit is needed, so if the bin cannot fit on your driveway, call DPIE before you book. Measure the driveway against the bin length first. On a numbered State highway, such as MD 704 (Martin Luther King Jr. Highway) through neighboring Seat Pleasant, the Maryland State Highway Administration requires a permit for any work in the State right-of-way; contact its District 3 office at 9300 Kenilworth Avenue, Greenbelt (301-513-7347). The County zoning ordinance does not list dumpsters as a temporary use; its 30-day, locked, not-in-the-front-yard rule is for storage pods, but it is a sensible guide for keeping a debris bin short-term and tidy. If your address is actually inside Seat Pleasant, Fairmount Heights or Capitol Heights, ask that municipality instead.

What matters locally

Free annual load of home-project debris at the Brown Station Road landfill

A Prince George's County homeowner can bring one pickup-truck load, or one trailer load no bigger than 4 by 8 feet with 2-foot sides, of residential construction debris to the Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill (3501 Brown Station Road, Upper Marlboro) free once a year with proof of County residency. For a Cedar Heights project that produces only a truckload of drywall or old flooring, that may be cheaper than renting a container. The landfill and its convenience center are open Monday to Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.; trailers are not allowed at the convenience centers themselves.

Bulky items: curbside for County-collected homes, PGC311 for everyone else

Cedar Heights homes on County-contract trash service may put up to four bulky items at the curb on their collection day. Other households request a bulky pickup through PGC311. If your clean-out is a sofa, a mattress and a couple of old appliances rather than a room of debris, check this before booking a roll-off. The County's other public drop-off site, the Missouri Avenue convenience center at 12701 Missouri Avenue, is in Brandywine, at the far southern end of the County.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Cedar Heights.

Does Prince George's County choose the roll-off company for Cedar Heights homes?

No. You pick the company, but it must be licensed. County Code § 21-105(a) lets only collectors or haulers licensed by the Department of the Environment collect or transport solid waste in the County (residents may haul their own household waste), and § 21-105(f) requires licensees to take loads only to an approved facility. The County collects trash from small homes outside municipalities and may contract with private companies for that, but no exclusive franchise covering roll-offs was found. Ask the rental company to confirm its current County license.

Do I need a permit if the dumpster has to sit on my Cedar Heights street?

Possibly. Prince George's County DPIE requires a Site/Road permit for work inside the public right-of-way, but it has no dumpster-specific permit, fee or time limit that could be confirmed for this guide, so call DPIE before placing a bin on a County street. A driveway placement on your own lot avoids the question. If the street is a numbered State highway, the State Highway Administration requires a permit from its District 3 office in Greenbelt for any work in the State right-of-way.
