Centennial keeps dumpsters off residential streets except for permitted neighborhood projects

The City of Centennial's residential dumpster permit page says dumpsters are not allowed on public residential streets, except for community or neighborhood cleanup and maintenance projects or groups of five or more residents. Permits go to incorporated HOAs, civic or community associations, general improvement districts in the City, or five or more residents of the same subdivision, and an approved permit may take three days to process. The application form (Storage Activity/Residential Dumpster Permit in Right-of-Way) adds that right-of-way storage is allowed only for a neighborhood project or when the applicant shows the container cannot safely and lawfully sit on private property, at the City's discretion. It lists a $50/month residential dumpster fee, needs a placement map, and asks you not to take delivery until the permit is issued. The form's terms limit placement to spots where parking is allowed, within 18 inches of the curb, clear of sidewalks and intersection sight lines, with cones or markers at the corners and the permit posted on each end; the container must leave within 24 hours of being full. The form is internally inconsistent on duration: the fee section mentions up to 120 days with a City building permit, while the terms say no dumpster may stay more than seven consecutive days with no extensions, so confirm the allowed period with Public Works (303-325-8000, ROWPermits@centennialco.gov). Separately, the City's right-of-way page says any occupation of City right-of-way needs a ROW permit and that contractors must be licensed and bonded with the City to get one. A driveway or other private-property placement is not covered by these pages but may be limited by HOA covenants. These rules cover the incorporated City, not every address with a Centennial mailing city.
