Dumpster rental
in Fort Hunt.

Fort Hunt residents use Alexandria addresses, but the City of Alexandria's dumpster rules do not apply here. Fairfax County code, VDOT on public streets, and in Hollin Hills a covenant-based design review committee are the ones to check. If your driveway can hold the bin, you avoid the VDOT permit question altogether. For a modest cleanout that fits in a pickup, the County's I-95 Landfill Complex in Lorton is a practical alternative.

The first decision in Fort Hunt

Start with an eligible hauler.

Neither supplier publishes a price, and neither has a Fort Hunt page; both serve it through their Alexandria pages. Bin There Dump That offers five short bins (4 to 20 yards, none longer than 11 ft) on a typical 7-day rental, from an Alexandria (Duke Street) base. Selective Hauling offers only 22-ft, 20- and 30-yard boxes from Gaithersburg, Maryland, but allows 20 days before rental fees start. It also lists its extra-charge items and a 10-ton load cap. Neither company is on the County's published permitted-collector list.

Your local checklist
  1. Confirm your address is in Fairfax County, not the City of Alexandria, before following any permit advice. An Alexandria 22308 or 22307 mailing address alone does not settle it, and the City's street-dumpster permit does not cover Fort Hunt.
  2. If you live in Hollin Hills, ask the Civic Association's Design Review Committee whether a temporary roll-off for your project needs notice or approval, and tell your neighbors the delivery and pickup dates.
  3. If the bin must go on the street rather than in your driveway, email VDOT's Fairfax/Arlington land use permits office about a single use permit, and get the next-door owners' written consent. Also ask the hauler for its Fairfax County solid waste permit.

Fort Hunt driveway or street: County zoning on the lot, VDOT on the road

Fort Hunt has no town hall and so no local dumpster permit. No Fairfax County permit specific to placing a dumpster on a public street was found either. Most public subdivision streets in Fairfax County are state-maintained. On a state road that is not limited-access, VDOT's land use permit regulation allows trash receptacles under a single use permit (24VAC30-151-640). The receptacle must sit as near the right-of-way line as practical, the permittee needs written consent from adjacent owners, and the application fee is $100 (24VAC30-151-710). The regulation does not name temporary roll-offs, so check with VDOT's Fairfax/Arlington land use permits office (NOVAFairfaxPermits@VDOT.Virginia.gov) before a bin goes on the street. A driveway placement avoids that step. On the lot, the County Zoning Ordinance has no dumpster or roll-off provision. Its nearest rule, § 4102.8.H, covers enclosed portable storage containers for household goods: 30 consecutive days per six months on detached-house lots of 36,000 sq ft or less, 60 days on larger lots, 7 days on townhouse lots, and never on streets or sidewalks. Whether the County applies that limit to an open-top debris roll-off is not stated. In Hollin Hills, the civic association's Design Review Committee reviews any project that changes a home's exterior, and the neighborhood is also a County Historic Overlay District. Neither source mentions temporary dumpsters, so ask the DRC before scheduling delivery.

What matters locally

Hauling it yourself: the I-95 Landfill Complex in Lorton

Of Fairfax County's two resident drop-off sites, the closer one for Fort Hunt is the I-95 Landfill Complex at 9850 Furnace Road, Lorton. It takes residents' trash, recycling, food scraps and metals seven days a week (7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekends). Household hazardous waste and electronics are accepted only on Wednesdays (7 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and Saturdays (7 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Residents also get free double-shredded mulch. Bring proof of Fairfax County residency, such as a driver's license or a utility bill. The site's two holiday-hours tables disagree, so call 703-690-1703 before a holiday trip.

County resident disposal rates, July 2026 to June 2027

Resident rates at the I-95 and I-66 sites: loose trash is $98 a ton with a $39 minimum, or flat fees of $21 for 1 to 5 bags and $28 for 6 to 10 bags. Brush is $59 a ton, or $20 for a mini-pickup load and $28 for a full-size pickup. Brick, concrete, dirt and rock (including toilets, sinks and tubs) are $109 a ton with a $49 minimum and a limit of 2 cubic yards per household per day. Sofas, mattresses, carpet and similar large items are $17 each, refrigerant appliances $15, and passenger tires $14 each (up to 10). For a garage cleanout that fits in a pickup, these fees can come to less than a roll-off rental.

Open-top roll-offs are for debris, not household garbage

Fairfax County Code § 109.1-5-6 requires a tight-fitting lid, kept closed, on any container used for refuse, and it bars open-top containers from collecting, storing or hauling refuse or other putrescible waste. Roll-offs must also carry reflectors and show the owner's contact details. Fill a rented open-top bin with remodeling and cleanout debris only, and keep kitchen waste and bagged household trash in your regular trash service.

Questions about renting in Fort Hunt.

Does the City of Alexandria's dumpster permit apply to my Fort Hunt house?

No. Fort Hunt is an unincorporated census-designated place in Fairfax County that happens to use Alexandria ZIP codes such as 22308. It has no town government, so the governing rules are Fairfax County's solid waste code, which requires collectors to hold a County business license and solid waste permit. On a state-maintained street, VDOT's land use permit regulation also applies: a single use permit with a $100 application fee, and adjacent owners' written consent.

Could a Mount Vernon District trash pilot limit which roll-off company I can hire?

Nothing has been adopted. Fort Hunt lies in the Mount Vernon District, and in July 2026 its supervisor asked the County to look again at unified trash collection districts, possibly with a Mount Vernon pilot. The Board had shelved the staff plan in May, no vote was taken, and staff described the pilot ideas as early concepts. As reported, the idea covers household trash and recycling for single-family homes and townhouses, not roll-off rentals.
