New Hampshire / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Charlestown.

Charlestown has no curbside pickup, and its Fling Road Transfer Station takes renovation debris from sticker-holding residents at $0.15 a pound, which adds up fast on a big job (a ton costs about $300 there). For a kitchen, roof or cleanout, Bin There Dump That lists 4- to 20-yard bins from $450 to $750, and Casella quotes containers up to 40 yards. Ask each how much weight is included, because neither publishes it. Keep the bin on your own lot.

The first decision in Charlestown

Match the terms to your project.

Bin There Dump That has a Charlestown page with five sizes and flat prices, including small 4- and 6-yard bins for tight driveways, but its northern New Hampshire pages give no included weight or overage rate. Casella also has a Charlestown page and offers bigger containers up to 40 yards, but shows no prices, rental length or weight allowance. Get the Charlestown total, days and per-ton overage from both in writing.

Your local checklist

Do the math before hauling debris yourself: at the Transfer Station's $0.15 per pound, two tons of shingles or plaster would cost about $600 in fees alone, close to the price of a 15- or 20-yard rental bin.
If you live on Main Street, Route 11 or Route 12A, plan the drop spot on your own driveway, since those roads are state highways and no Town permit for a roadside dumpster was found.
Ask Bin There Dump That how many tons each bin includes and what each extra ton costs, because the northern New Hampshire franchise pages list prices but not weight.

Unlike the company's southern New Hampshire franchise, these pages do not state how much weight each bin includes, so ask before booking. The listed heights for the 10- and 20-yard bins look unusual; confirm dimensions if access is tight.

Keep the roll-off on your own lot; no Charlestown dumpster or street permit was found

The Town's documents page lists a Driveway Permit application but no dumpster, street-obstruction or right-of-way permit, and the 2024 annual report's Highway Department section describes no such permit. That means no Town rule for a dumpster in the road was found; it does not mean one is allowed. Set the container on your driveway or yard, clear of the road shoulder, ditches and snow-storage areas, and call the Town Office (603-826-4400) before placing anything near a Town road. Main Street (Route 12), Route 11 and Route 12A are state highways, so anything near them is a matter for NHDOT, not the Town. In the Main Street and North Charlestown historic districts, the Historic District Ordinance exempts temporary structures from review, and it has no dumpster rule.

What matters locally

Charlestown Transfer Station weighs construction debris at 15 cents a pound, residents only

The Town's 2024 Transfer Station brochure says the Fling Road station is for Charlestown residents only and needs a sticker on the passenger side of the windshield, bought at the Town Office with your vehicle registration ($100 for the first sticker, $20 for a second, limit two per household). Construction and demolition debris such as painted or treated wood and sheetrock is charged $0.15 per pound, with a $3.00 charge for demo loads under 20 pounds. Refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners are $15 each, mattresses are priced at market rate, and car tires are $4 on the rim or $5.25 off. A burn pit takes brush and pallets only. Hazardous waste is not accepted. Hours: Tuesday and Friday 1 to 4:25 p.m., Wednesday 1 to 5:55 p.m., Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:25 p.m.; phone 603-826-3201. The brochure says a full price list is kept at the facility, so confirm current fees there.

Household hazardous waste goes to regional collection days, not the Transfer Station

Charlestown's Transfer Station does not take household hazardous waste. The Town's 2024 brochure directs residents to the City of Keene or the Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Regional Planning Commission (603-448-1680) for disposal. The Transfer Station's recycling flyer lists 2024 regional collection days in Lebanon and Sunapee and points to hhw.uvlsrpc.org, noting a small fee may apply. Paint, solvents and chemicals also cannot go in a rented roll-off, so set them aside before the container arrives.

Questions about renting in Charlestown.

Can I take renovation debris to the Charlestown Transfer Station instead of renting a dumpster?

Yes, if you are a Charlestown resident with a Transfer Station sticker ($100 for the first, from the Town Office). The Town's 2024 brochure lists construction and demolition debris, such as treated wood and sheetrock, at $0.15 per pound, with a $3 charge for loads under 20 pounds. The station is open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday afternoons and Saturdays. Fees may have changed; the brochure says the full price list is at the facility (603-826-3201).

Does Charlestown's zoning or historic district ordinance restrict a temporary roll-off at my house?

No rule was found. The Zoning Ordinance as amended through March 10, 2026 does not mention dumpsters or roll-offs; its waste-enclosure standard applies only in the industrial-park zones. Screening for waste containers in the Site Plan Review Regulations applies to commercial, industrial and multi-family projects. The Historic District Ordinance exempts temporary structures from review. If you are unsure, call the Planning and Zoning office at 603-826-4400.
