Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Frederick.

City of Frederick crews take household trash, yard waste and one bulk pickup a year, but they will not collect construction or demolition debris, so a renovation or tear-out needs a rented roll-off. Keep the bin on your own driveway if you can. Downtown rowhouses without a driveway will need a City permit through the Traffic Division before a bin goes on the street or sidewalk.

The first decision in Frederick

Match the terms to your project.

Action Dumpsters is the only one of the two that publishes Frederick prices: $449–$649 for 10 to 30 yards, with 1–3 tons included, $125 per extra ton and 12 days on its home page. It drives up from Gaithersburg. Bin There Dump That Central Maryland is based in Frederick and rents smaller bins from 4 to 20 yards, all 10–11 ft long, on a typical 7-day rental, but it quotes every price and weight allowance individually.

Your local checklist

If the bin cannot fit on your own driveway, call the City Traffic Division (301-600-3885) and apply for the Temporary Street/Lane/Sidewalk Closure permit ($75 on the FY 2027 schedule) before booking delivery; ask how many days it covers.
In the historic downtown, check that the bin's length fits your alley or parking pad. Bin There Dump That's bins are 10–11 ft long, and Action's larger roll-offs are not dimensioned on its Frederick page.
Keep brick, concrete, drywall, lumber and shingles out of your City trash and bulk set-outs: the City lists construction/demolition waste as prohibited for collection, so that debris belongs in the roll-off or goes to the County facility on Reichs Ford Road.

City permit before a roll-off is staged on a City street or sidewalk

The City's construction guidance says a permit is required for storage containers and roll-off dumpsters before staging them in the City right-of-way. It also requires a temporary street/lane/sidewalk closure permit to work in an existing City street, including sidewalks. The City FAQ tells anyone who needs a dumpster in the street or sidewalk for a construction project to contact the Traffic Division of the Engineering Department (301-600-3885). Engineering's permit list includes an online Temporary Road/Lane/Sidewalk/Street Closure application and a separate extension request. The FY 2027 fee schedule sets the Temporary Street/Lane/Sidewalk Closure Permit at $75. None of these City pages gives a maximum number of days or a lead time; ask the Traffic Division when you apply. A bin kept entirely on your own driveway needs no City street permit. The Land Management Code does let 'portable storage containers' sit on residential lots for up to 30 consecutive days, 60 days a year, with a temporary use permit (§ 803(f), as amended by Ord. G-18-04). Whether that covers a debris roll-off was not confirmed, so ask Planning. State routes through the City are permitted by MDOT SHA, not the City.

City bulk pickup: one free collection a year, about ten items

Each City household gets one free bulk collection a year for roughly ten items, requested online with every item listed. Additional pickups cost extra, but the page does not publish the fee. For more than ten items, call Sanitation at 301-600-1377 to add a paid pickup. Accepted items include furniture, appliances with refrigerants removed, grills with tanks removed, electronics, TVs, bicycles, swing sets and push mowers with fluids drained. Mattresses and box springs are limited to three per household. Items go where your trash normally goes; crews will not enter houses, fences or private property to collect them.

Construction debris is refused at the curb; the County facility on Reichs Ford Road takes it

The City's Proper Disposal page lists asphalt, block, brick, concrete, drywall, fencing, metals, plaster, rock, soil, stone and wood as construction/demolition waste prohibited for collection. The City does not collect tires, and more than a gallon of dirt goes to the County landfill. Frederick County's facility is at 9031 Reichs Ford Road (drop-off Monday–Saturday, 7 a.m.–4:30 p.m.). It accepts only waste generated in Frederick County, with ID or proof of a County address where the waste was generated. Every paid transaction costs at least $10, with charges added in 20-lb steps after that. The County page does not post a per-ton rate for construction debris, so ask at the scale.

City trash service leaves construction debris to private haulers

Frederick City Code Chapter 10 defines the refuse the City collects to exclude construction materials and demolition debris, bars setting out drywall, wood, brick, concrete, soil and similar building waste for City collection, and grants no exclusive collection right or hauler license. A rented roll-off is therefore a private arrangement; the only dumpster restriction in the chapter is that no new City-collected dumpsters are approved in the downtown business district.

Who do I call to put a dumpster on a City street in Frederick?
