Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Lanham.

Lanham has no town hall, so first confirm your address is in unincorporated Prince George's County and not in New Carrollton, Bowie or Greenbelt. A bin on your own driveway avoids the street question; one fronting Annapolis Road or Lanham Severn Road sits on State right-of-way and needs SHA District 3, and for a County street call DPIE first. Whichever company you hire must hold a County collection license.

The first decision in Lanham

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That is the only supplier with a Lanham page; its bins top out at 20 yards and 11 ft long, with 10 days and 1.5 to 2 tons included, but its Lanham page prices ($520 to $595) run above its own rates page ($480 to $560). Action Dumpsters lists Lanham on its Gaithersburg service list and publishes the longest rental (12 days), 1 to 3 tons and a $125-per-ton overage, from $449 up to 30 yards. Yellow Dumpster Service in Elkridge names Prince George's County, not Lanham, and matches Action's $449 to $649 range but with pound-based allowances (2,000 to 6,000 lb) and a $200 mattress fee.

Your local checklist

Look up your parcel before booking: a 20706 address can sit just outside Lanham in incorporated New Carrollton, Bowie or Greenbelt, which set their own dumpster rules.
If the bin cannot fit on your driveway and your house fronts Annapolis Road (MD 450) or Lanham Severn Road (MD 564), contact SHA District 3 in Greenbelt about a right-of-way permit; for a County street, call DPIE before placement.
Ask each company for its Prince George's County collection license, whether its price includes delivery to your street, and which approved facility your debris will go to.

Lanham dumpster: keep it on your lot if you can; a County dumpster-specific permit rule was not verified; MD 450 and MD 564 go to SHA District 3

No dumpster-specific Prince George's County permit page could be read for this guide, so we cannot say whether a bin on your own driveway needs a County permit, and we are not saying it does not. For a bin in a County road or right-of-way, ask the County's Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement (DPIE) what it requires before placing anything on a County street. Frontage on a State route such as Annapolis Road (MD 450) or Lanham Severn Road (MD 564) is State right-of-way, and MDOT SHA says work within its right-of-way needs a permit from the district office: District 3, 9300 Kenilworth Avenue, Greenbelt, (301) 513-7347. Addresses inside an incorporated city such as New Carrollton, Bowie or Greenbelt follow that city's rules instead. If your subdivision has a homeowners association, get its approval as well. The County Code reviewed for this guide (Subtitle 21) has no dumpster or roll-off placement rule; the County Zoning Ordinance has not yet been checked for a temporary-container rule. Prince George's County has no permit written for a dumpster on a Lanham driveway, and its zoning code does not list roll-offs as a temporary use; the 30-day, 16-ft, locked "temporary portable storage unit" rule is written for storage pods, so keep a debris bin short-term and off the front lawn if you can. Any work in a County road needs a DPIE Site/Road permit, so plan on the driveway.

What matters locally

County drop-off: one free load of remodel debris a year

Prince George's County homeowners may take one pickup-truck load, or one trailer load up to 4 by 8 feet with 2-foot sides, of residential construction debris to the Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill (3501 Brown Station Road, Upper Marlboro) free each year, with proof of County residency. The Brown Station Road and Missouri Avenue convenience centers take household trash, recyclables and (at Brown Station Road) furniture, and homes on County-contracted trash service in Lanham can set up to four bulky items at the curb on collection day.

Check the source

Brown Station Road: the County landfill takes roll-off trucks, not your car

Prince George's County's Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill in Upper Marlboro is the County's disposal site, and County Code § 21-112 lets the County designate County and private approved facilities to which licensed haulers must deliver. If you plan to haul your own debris instead, resident drop-off arrangements, limits, any free construction-debris allowance, accepted materials and fees are set on the County's facility page, which should be checked before you load a pickup. Comparing that trip with a small bin can be worthwhile for a light cleanout.

Check the source

County bulky trash pickup before you rent

Prince George's County runs a bulky-item program (Clear the Curb) for homes on County trash service; its page sets which items go out on your regular collection day and which need a booking. If you only have a few large items rather than renovation debris, check the County's current rules before paying for a dumpster; Lanham homes on private or HOA-arranged trash service should ask their own hauler.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Lanham.

Can I hire any roll-off company for a Lanham cleanout?

You can choose the company, but it must be licensed. Prince George's County Code § 21-105(a) allows solid waste to be collected or transported in the County only by a collector or hauler licensed by the Department of the Environment (residents may haul their own household waste), and licensees must deliver to an approved facility. The County may collect household trash from smaller homes outside municipalities and may contract for it, but no exclusive franchise covering roll-offs was found. Ask the company to confirm its County license.

Do I need a permit to put the dumpster on Annapolis Road or Lanham Severn Road?

Both are State highways maintained by the Maryland State Highway Administration, and SHA says work within its right-of-way requires a permit from the district office. Lanham is in District 3, 9300 Kenilworth Avenue, Greenbelt, (301) 513-7347. Keeping the bin on your own driveway avoids that question; for a County-maintained street, ask the County's permitting department (DPIE) before placing it.
