Huntington is not Alexandria: VDOT on public streets, the County on your lot

Because Huntington lies outside the City of Alexandria despite its Alexandria address, the City's right-of-way dumpster permit is not the relevant one, and no Fairfax County permit specific to a dumpster on a public street was found. Public residential streets in Fairfax County are generally state roads, and VDOT's land use permit regulations let trash receptacles sit on non-limited-access highways under a single use permit (24VAC30-151-640), as close to the right-of-way line as possible and only with the adjacent owners' written permission; the single use permit application fee is $100 (24VAC30-151-710). The regulation does not name temporary roll-offs, so ask VDOT's Fairfax/Arlington land use permit office (NOVAFairfaxPermits@VDOT.Virginia.gov, 4975 Alliance Drive, Fairfax) before a bin goes on a street. In the Route 1 condominium and apartment complexes and in townhouse communities, parking lots are usually managed by the association or building, so get its permission first. On a private lot, the County's portable storage container limits (Zoning Ordinance 4102.8.H: 30 consecutive days in six months on detached-home lots of 36,000 sq ft or less, 7 days for townhouse and multifamily, 8.5 ft high, not on streets or sidewalks) are written for enclosed, box-like containers for household goods; the Zoning Ordinance contains no dumpster or roll-off text, so these limits are only the nearest analogue. The County does offer an administrative permit of up to six months for a storage container at a home damaged by a casualty such as a flood, which may matter in Huntington's low-lying areas; whether it covers a debris roll-off was not confirmed.
