Dumpster rental
in Essex.

Essex answers to Baltimore County, not a town hall, and the cleanest plan is a bin in your own driveway: the County's $100 Dumpster Use Permit covers a bin on your property for 30 days and does not allow one in the roadway. Compact Essex lots favour the 11-ft bins from Bin There Dump That or a 10- to 15-yard box, while larger waterfront or renovation jobs can take the longer boxes from 86 Dumpster or Dump Rite. A small load can go straight to the County's Eastern Sanitary Landfill on Days Cove Road.

The first decision in Essex

Start with an eligible hauler.

86 Dumpster publishes the fullest price sheet (10-yard $409 with 1 ton and 14 days, $136 a ton over, $15 a day extra) but its boxes run 12 to 18 ft long. Bin There Dump That costs a little more ($480 for 10 yards with 1.5 tons over 10 days) and its bins are all 11 ft or shorter. Dump Rite, based on Back River Neck Road, gives 14 days and charges $7 for each extra day, but publishes no prices or included weight. Waste Connections offers 15- to 40-yard boxes and publishes no prices or terms.

Your local checklist
  1. Before delivery, file Baltimore County's $100 Dumpster Use Permit with a site plan showing the bin on your driveway or yard (never the roadway); it allows 30 days, or the life of an active building permit.
  2. If the bin must go on Eastern Boulevard or Southeast Boulevard, contact the State Highway Administration's District 4 office in Hunt Valley for a permit first; for a County street, call Baltimore County Public Works and Transportation (410-887-2000) and ask what applies.
  3. Ask the rental company whether its trucks hold a Baltimore County solid waste collection-vehicle permit, and keep food waste, paint and chemicals out of the open bin (paint and chemicals go to the County's household hazardous waste site in Cockeysville).

Essex dumpster on the driveway: Baltimore County Use Permit, $100, 30 days; never in the roadway

Baltimore County's Zoning Review office says a Use Permit is required for the temporary placement of a dumpster, and its application covers only a dumpster on the property itself: placement in the roadway is not permitted. You (or the rental company) file the one-page Dumpster Use Permit Application with a site plan showing where the bin will sit so it does not interfere with traffic, sight lines, safety or the neighbouring property, plus the $100 fee. With an active building permit the bin may stay for the life of that permit; without one it may stay 30 days. The County also limits what goes in it: only material from that Essex property, no household garbage or food, and the bin must not overflow. Questions go to Zoning Review, 111 West Chesapeake Avenue, Room 124, Towson (410-887-3391, paizoning@baltimorecountymd.gov).

What matters locally

Hauling it yourself: the Eastern Sanitary Landfill

The closest Baltimore County drop-off for Essex is the Eastern Sanitary Landfill at 6259 Days Cove Road, White Marsh, open Monday to Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (County line 410-887-2000). County residents may drop off household trash and recyclables free for up to 10 visits a year; after that, loads go to the Eastern Sanitary Landfill at a prorated $125 a ton. Commercial haulers need a County account.

An open roll-off is for debris, not kitchen garbage

Baltimore County Code § 13-4-201 requires solid waste to be kept in approved receptacles and garbage (food and other putrescible waste) to be kept in rodent-resistant, watertight containers with tight-fitting lids. An open-top roll-off therefore suits renovation, roofing and cleanout debris; bagged household garbage belongs in your regular County collection.

Furniture and appliances: two free County bulk pickups a year

Single-family homes and town homes in Essex get two scheduled County bulk collections a year, up to three items each, with no call needed: set items out after 6 p.m. the night before.

The same bulk items can also go to any County drop-off facility free.

Questions about renting in Essex.

Can I put a rented dumpster on the street in front of my Essex house?

Yes, on your own property, and no on the street. Baltimore County requires a $100 Dumpster Use Permit, filed with a site plan, for the temporary placement of a dumpster at a Essex home; the permit is only for a bin on the lot, because placement in the roadway is not permitted. It runs 30 days, or as long as an active building permit, and the bin may hold only material from that property, with no garbage or food.
