Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Glenvar.

Glenvar is a Salem-mailing corner of western Roanoke County, not part of the City of Salem, so County and VDOT rules apply and no County hauler permit is needed. Plan to keep the bin on your own lot, off West Main Street. For a remodel or reroof the County won't collect, rent a roll-off; for a few truckloads of household junk or brush, the free resident trips to the RVRA Salem Transfer Station on Indiana Street may be all you need.

The first decision in Glenvar

Match the terms to your project.

Bin There Dump That Central Virginia is the only one here that publishes prices: $379 to $459 for 6- to 20-yard bins on a typical 7-day rental, plus a mileage fee that may apply out to Glenvar, with short 10- to 11-ft boxes. Meridian Waste is the only company whose pages name Glenvar and the only one with 30- and 40-yard roll-offs, but it publishes no prices or weights and dispatches from Christiansburg. Barker's offers 16- and 20-yard bins on 1-, 3- or 7-day terms, unpriced.

Your local checklist
  1. Make sure your address is in Roanoke County and not inside the City of Salem line: a Salem, VA 24153 mailing address does not tell you which, and City addresses follow City rules.
  2. If the bin cannot sit on your driveway or yard, call VDOT's Salem Residency (540-387-5488) about a single use permit before placing it on a road shoulder, and keep it well off U.S. 11/460.
  3. Ask Bin There Dump That for its mileage charge to your Glenvar road and ask Meridian for its rental days and included tonnage, then compare written quotes against free resident trips to the Salem Transfer Station.

Franchise based at 1026 River Ave SE, Roanoke, VA 24013 (address on its franchise home and service-areas pages).

Its bins are short (10 to 11 ft), which helps on tight or sloping drives.

Its dumpster page names Salem among the places it serves within about 60 miles but does not name Glenvar or Roanoke County. Listed for comparison; its page has some unfinished form text, so it is not counted toward the two verified suppliers.

Glenvar lots: keep the bin on your land, call VDOT's Salem Residency if it can't be

No Roanoke County permit written for a dumpster on a street was found, and the County zoning ordinance's temporary-container permit covers enclosed portable storage units rather than open-top roll-offs. Most public roads in Roanoke County are state roads, so anything set in the public right-of-way is VDOT's call: trash receptacles on roads other than limited-access highways may be allowed under a VDOT single use permit, placed as close to the right-of-way line as possible, with written permission from the adjoining owners (24VAC30-151-640); the single use permit application fee is $100 (24VAC30-151-710). The regulation does not mention temporary roll-offs by name, so phone VDOT's Salem Residency (714 S. Broad St., Salem; 540-387-5488), which covers Roanoke County, before putting a bin on a road shoulder. U.S. 11/460 (West Main Street) is Glenvar's main highway and the wrong place for a container; a driveway or side yard is the practical spot. On steep or gravel drives, tell the hauler the grade and surface when booking, and ask for boards or driveway protection. Addresses inside the City of Salem follow City rules, not these.

What matters locally

Closest drop-off: RVRA Salem Transfer Station on Indiana Street

Glenvar residents can haul their own loads to either Roanoke Valley Resource Authority transfer station: Salem Transfer Station, 1271 Indiana Street, Salem (the nearer one for western Roanoke County) or Tinker Creek, 1020 Hollins Road NE, Roanoke. Both are open 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. Disposal is free for residents of Roanoke County, the Cities of Roanoke and Salem and the Town of Vinton within RVRA limits: a pickup no larger than a 1-ton or dually truck, two free trailer trips with a single-axle trailer or three with a double axle, four tires per trip ($5 each after that), up to 500 lb of rock, dirt, brick or concrete, and do-it-yourself construction debris. Uncovered loads pay $25, and waste from paid contractors is not accepted under the residential program. Roanoke County's own trash page caps resident use at 12 pickup-bed trips a year. Bring a driver's license or utility bill.

What County curbside pickup will and will not take

Roanoke County collects household trash weekly from County-issued cans and bulk items and brush every other week (A and B weeks; check the County's Trash App). Set piles out no earlier than the Saturday before and by 7 a.m. on collection day, at least 5 feet from cars, mailboxes and cans; brush must be cut to 6 feet long and 12 inches thick. The County will not pick up dirt, rock, concrete, bricks, shingles, car parts or materials left by paid contractors, and County Code Chapter 20 makes contractor and construction or demolition waste the owner's or contractor's job to dispose of. That leftover category, a reroof, a remodel or a demolition, is what a rented roll-off is for.

How Roanoke County's code treats a rented roll-off

Roanoke County Code Chapter 20 sets up County collection of household waste but contains no permit, licence or franchise for private haulers; § 20-40 only asks companies that manage solid waste generated in the County to file an annual report. The zoning rule for temporary portable storage containers at homes (§ 30-88-2: zoning permit, 30 consecutive days per six months, 130 sq ft, one per lot) applies to fully enclosed box-like containers built to store household goods as § 30-28 defines them, so an open-top debris roll-off is not one of those; ask County zoning if your container is unusual. The County's dumpster screening rule in § 30-92-6(F)(1) applies to developments under site plan review, not to a short-term bin at a house.

Questions about renting in Glenvar.

Do I need a Roanoke County permit to rent a dumpster in Glenvar?

No County dumpster permit was found. Roanoke County's solid waste chapter has no licence, permit or franchise for private haulers, so any company may rent you a roll-off. The County's zoning permit for temporary storage containers covers enclosed, box-like units built for household goods, which an open-top roll-off is not. A bin on the public road is different: that needs VDOT's approval under its single use permit rules, so keep the bin on your own property where you can.

Can I take renovation debris from my Glenvar house to the transfer station myself?

Yes, if you did the work yourself. The Roanoke Valley Resource Authority accepts do-it-yourself construction debris and household cleanout loads free from Roanoke County residents, in a pickup no larger than a 1-ton truck, with up to 500 lb of rock, brick or concrete. Loads must be covered or you pay $25, and waste from a paid contractor's job is not covered by the resident program. The Salem Transfer Station at 1271 Indiana Street is the closer of the two stations for Glenvar; the County caps residents at 12 pickup-bed trips a year.
