Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Dundalk.

In Dundalk the hard part is usually space, not price. The County will not allow a bin in the roadway, so on a rowhouse or historic-district block you need a rear pad, alley-side yard or driveway that can take a 12- to 14-ft box and the truck that sets it. Both local suppliers publish prices with 14 days included, so a 10- or 15-yard from either is the usual starting point; check whether your block falls in Baltimore County or Baltimore City before filing a permit.

The first decision in Dundalk

Start with an eligible hauler.

MAC Dumpsters is cheaper ($375 to $550) and includes more weight (1.5 to 3 tons) but stops at 20 yards and charges $25 per extra day. 86 Dumpster costs a little more ($409 to $589 for 10 to 30 yards) and includes 1 to 3 tons at $136 per extra ton, but its extra days are only $15 and it offers a 30-yard and a rock-and-dirt box for heavy demolition. Both include 14 days and are based in eastern Baltimore County.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is in Baltimore County, not Baltimore City (part of St. Helena and the blocks along the city line can differ), then file the County's $100 Dumpster Use Permit with a site plan before delivery, even though one supplier's page says private-property bins need none.
Pace out the delivery route: a rear pad or alley-side spot must take a 12- to 14-ft container plus the truck's straight-line run and overhead clearance, so check alley width, overhead wires and branches, and tell the company if the alley is the only access.
Keep household garbage and food out of the open bin and load nothing above the rim; for a few pieces of furniture, use one of the two free County bulk collections instead of a roll-off.

Roll-off company at 5806 Allender Rd, White Marsh, MD 21162, phone (443) 671-1850. Its Dundalk page covers ZIP 21222 and names Old Dundalk, St. Helena, Sparrows Point and Turner Station; it suggests a 10- or 15-yard for rowhouse blocks and asks for about 23 ft of overhead clearance, 45 to 50 ft of straight run and 10 to 12 ft of width, with driveway boards on every delivery. The page states no permit is needed on private property, which conflicts with the County's Dumpster Use Permit; file the County permit regardless.

Dundalk dumpster: on your lot with a $100 Baltimore County Use Permit, 30 days; not in the roadway

Baltimore County's Zoning Review office requires a Use Permit for the temporary placement of a dumpster, and the County's application covers a bin on the property only: placement in the roadway is not permitted. That matters on Dundalk's narrow rowhouse streets, where the bin has to fit on a rear parking pad, alley-side yard or driveway. The application needs a site plan showing a spot that does not interfere with traffic, sight distance, safety or the neighbouring lot, plus a $100 fee. The bin may remain for the life of an active building permit, or 30 days without one, and may hold only material from that property, with no garbage or food and nothing overflowing. Note that one supplier's Dundalk page says no permit is needed on private property; the County application says otherwise, so file it. Questions: Zoning Review, 111 West Chesapeake Avenue, Room 124, Towson (410-887-3391, paizoning@baltimorecountymd.gov). If your block is inside Baltimore City, City rules apply instead.

What matters locally

Hauling it yourself from Dundalk: Eastern Sanitary Landfill or a County acceptance facility

Baltimore County residents can use the County's drop-off centers free for up to 10 visits a year; beyond that, loads go to the Eastern Sanitary Landfill at 6259 Days Cove Road, White Marsh, at a prorated $125 a ton (Monday to Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.). The other options are the Central Acceptance Facility at 201 West Warren Road, Cockeysville, and the Western Acceptance Facility at 3310 Transway Road, Halethorpe (both Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Since the Francis Scott Key Bridge on I-695 collapsed in March 2024, Dundalk no longer has a direct Beltway crossing to the southwest side, so the White Marsh landfill via the eastern Beltway is usually the practical trip. County line: 410-887-2000.

Old sofas and appliances: two County bulk collections a year

Single-family homes and town homes, which covers most Dundalk rowhouses, get two scheduled County bulk collections a year with up to three items each, and no call is needed: put items out after 6 p.m. the evening before. Furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics and some fixtures such as sinks, toilets, bathtubs and rolled carpet are taken, but nothing longer than 8 ft. Bulk items can also be dropped at any of the three County facilities free of charge, which may save a rowhouse owner from renting a bin just for furniture.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Dundalk.

Can the dumpster go on the street in front of my Dundalk rowhouse?

No. Baltimore County's dumpster permit covers a bin on your own property and states that placement in the roadway is not permitted. For a bin on your lot, file the County's Dumpster Use Permit with a site plan and the $100 fee; it allows 30 days, or the life of an active building permit, and the bin may hold only material from that property, with no garbage or food. If your home is inside Baltimore City, City rules apply instead.

Do I have to use a particular hauler in Dundalk?

No exclusive hauler was found. Dundalk has no town government, and the Baltimore County Code requires a permit from the Department of Permits, Approvals and Inspections to operate a solid waste collection vehicle (residents hauling their own waste and home-improvement contractors are exempt), with a fee of up to $50 per vehicle renewed yearly. Nothing in that subtitle reserves roll-offs to a County contractor, so you may pick any company; ask it to confirm its current County permit.
