Dumpster rental
in Essex Junction.

Essex Junction leaves trash hauling to CSWD-licensed private companies, and the nearby Essex Drop-Off Center takes only about a cubic yard of C&D per load at up to $96. For a remodel or cleanout, Bin There Dump That publishes $499 to $949 for 6- to 20-yard bins with 0.25 to 1.5 tons included, and Casella quotes up to 40 yards. Keep the bin in your driveway, tarp it between loads, and call Public Works before using a City street.

The first decision in Essex Junction

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That is the only one of the two that publishes Essex Junction prices, included tonnage and a $275-per-ton overage rate, but its weight allowances are small (half a ton in a 10-yard bin). Casella offers containers up to 40 yards with a single quoted rate but publishes no prices, rental length or weight allowance. For heavy debris, compare the overage exposure on Bin There Dump That's bin with Casella's written quote.

Your local checklist
  1. Ask the rental company to confirm it holds a current Chittenden Solid Waste District Hauler License; both suppliers here appear on CSWD's licensed-hauler list, but licenses expire each July 1.
  2. If the roll-off has to sit on a City street or sidewalk, get approval from the Essex Junction Public Works Superintendent first (802-878-6944); Chapter 2 bars obstructing the right-of-way for construction storage without it.
  3. Separate scrap metal, appliances, clean plywood and asphalt shingles where you can, since the CSWD ordinance requires them to be recycled, and tarp the bin between loads to meet the City's Chapter 18 receptacle rule.

01 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Bin There Dump That (Northern Vermont franchise)

Published sizes
6-yard (10' x 5.5' x 3'), 10-yard (10' x 7' x 4'), 15-yard (11' x 8' x 4.5') and 20-yard (11' x 8' x 6') bins, per the Essex Junction page and the Northern Vermont rates page. The Essex Junction page also mentions bins from 4 yards and the franchise FAQ mentions a 14-yard size, but neither is priced; confirm the size when booking.
Rental & weight terms
Price includes 7 days, delivery, pickup and Vermont sales tax. Included disposal weight is 0.25 ton (6-yard), 0.5 ton (10-yard), 1 ton (15-yard) and 1.5 tons (20-yard); overage is $275 per ton, billed in quarter-ton increments. A $15 to $50 fuel surcharge applies by distance. Longer rentals can be arranged, but no extra-day rate is published. No hazardous materials.
Price basis
$499 (6-yard), $699 (10-yard), $799 (15-yard), $949 (20-yard). Call 802-264-8686.

Has its own Essex Junction service-area page; the franchise lists 183 Hegeman Avenue, Colchester. Appears on CSWD's list of licensed haulers (Chittenden County, trash). The included weight is low for its size, so heavy debris such as shingles or plaster can add quarter-ton overage charges quickly.

Obstructing an Essex Junction street for construction storage needs Public Works Superintendent approval

The City has no dumpster-specific street permit that we could find. Chapter 2 of the municipal code (General Regulation of Public Streets, carried over from the former Village) says no person or firm may close or otherwise obstruct a public right-of-way for construction or for storing equipment or construction-related material without approval of the Public Works Superintendent or a designee, and that the City Manager, Public Works or the Essex Police may rescind that permission without notice if public safety requires. The code sets no fee, lead time or maximum duration for that approval. The City's Excavation / Right-of-Way Permit form ($85, five working days' notice, valid 30 days, $1,000,000 liability insurance naming the City) is written for digging and curb cuts, not for containers, so do not assume it applies to a roll-off. The simplest course is to keep the bin on your driveway; if it must sit on a City street or sidewalk, call Public Works at 802-878-6944 before booking.

What matters locally

CSWD Essex Drop-Off Center: C&D by volume, $8 to $96 up to one cubic yard

The Chittenden Solid Waste District's Essex Drop-Off Center at 218 Colchester Road (in the Town of Essex, a short drive from the Five Corners) is open Tuesday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with a $1 facility fee per visit. Construction and demolition debris is charged by volume at a higher rate than household trash: $8 for up to 18 gallons, rising to $48 for half a cubic yard and $96 for 151 to 200 gallons (one cubic yard). It also takes scrap metal, large appliances, tires, electronics, yard trimmings and limited household hazardous waste; check CSWD's A-Z list for item fees. Trailers are allowed but dumping mechanisms are not.

Chapter 18: keep construction waste in a covered, secured receptacle

The City's litter and refuse ordinance (Chapter 18, amended July 23, 2025) makes owners and occupants keep construction waste and other refuse off the exterior of their property unless it is in a receptacle that is covered, secured and maintained to stop blowing, spilling or leaking. Section 1804 requires every construction site to have at least one receptacle for construction waste, secured or covered and serviced often enough to prevent spillage. A tarp over an open roll-off between loads is the practical way to comply. The CSWD ordinance separately says major appliances, asphalt shingles, clean plywood and OSB, and scrap metal must be reused or recycled, though they may be gathered on site with other C&D bound for a recycling facility, so ask your hauler where the load goes.

Questions about renting in Essex Junction.

Does a dumpster at my Essex Junction house need to be screened or fenced?

Not for a single-family home or a building of up to four units. Section 706.J of the Land Development Code requires six-foot screening, covers and setbacks for dumpsters, but its last paragraph says it does not apply to residential uses up to a four-family dwelling, and open-top temporary dumpsters are exempt from its cover rule. Larger apartment buildings and commercial properties are covered by the screening and setback standards, so check with the City's zoning staff before placing a roll-off there.

Who is allowed to haul away my dumpster in Essex Junction?

The Chittenden Solid Waste District ordinance requires a CSWD Hauler License for anyone who collects or transports solid waste generated in the county, and licensed waste may go only to a fully permitted facility named in the license. Residents hauling their own waste for no pay are exempt up to 12 tons a month. CSWD publishes a list of licensed haulers; Bin There Dump That and Casella Waste Systems both appear on it.
