Frederick wants roll-offs on the driveway, not in the street or alley

The Town of Frederick's Building FAQ answers the dumpster question directly: a remodeling dumpster is allowed, but it must be on your driveway or property and stay out of the rights-of-way, including alleys and roads, for emergency access. A dumpster in the road can be ticketed and sits there at the owner's risk. The same FAQ lets residents use a moving pod for up to 30 days without a permit, again only on private property. The Town does have street permits, but none is presented as a dumpster permit. Its Right-of-Way Permit guidelines say storing materials and equipment in the public right-of-way requires a permit ($150 permit fee plus a refundable deposit, a traffic control plan prepared by an ATSSA-certified person, insurance, and a Town contractor's license), and the 2026 fee schedule lists a Section 11-42 Obstruction Permit with a $10 materials fee and a $50 cone deposit. Town Code Section 11-42 allows a permit to obstruct a street only when needed for work on the adjoining property and for as short a time as possible, and the Town's FAQ points the other way for dumpsters, so do not count on getting a container approved for the street. If a driveway won't work, call Town Hall (720-382-5500) before booking. These rules apply inside Frederick town limits; a Frederick mailing address can sit in unincorporated Weld County, which the Town does not govern.
