Dumpster rental
in Lorton.

Lorton has no town hall, so a dumpster here answers to Fairfax County zoning and solid waste rules and, on the street, to VDOT. Homes on detached lots usually have room for a bin on the driveway; in townhouse sections, a short 10- or 11-ft bin is easier to fit, and an association may control the parking areas. If you only have a few carts of tile or broken concrete, the County's I-95 Landfill Complex in Lorton takes small resident loads by weight, which can be cheaper than a rental.

The first decision in Lorton

Start with an eligible hauler.

Nova Dumpsters is the only one of the four that publishes prices ($425–$675 for 10 to 30 yards, 10 days, 1–4 tons), though its sizes section lists different tonnage. Bin There Dump That has the shortest bins (4 to 20 yards, 11 ft or less), with a 7-day typical rental and no published prices. Selective Hauling rents only 22-ft, 20- and 30-yard boxes, with 20 days before rental fees start. American Disposal offers 10- to 30-yard boxes with no published price or terms, and is the only one on the County's permitted-collector list.

Your local checklist

Check whether your street is a VDOT road, a private street owned by an association, or a parking court before choosing a spot; anything off your own lot needs VDOT or association approval, and Fairfax County's portable storage rules keep containers off streets and sidewalks.
Ask the rental company to confirm in writing that it holds the Fairfax County solid waste permit required under County Code Chapter 109.1, since ad-hoc roll-off service needs a County disposal or special waste permit, not just a business license; keep bagged household trash and food waste out of an open-top bin (County Code § 109.1-5-6).
If the bin will sit in your front yard or driveway for more than a few days, ask Fairfax County Zoning (703-222-1082) whether the outdoor-storage limits in zoning § 4102.1.B(3) apply to it, and plan the shortest rental that fits the job.

Street placement: VDOT road right-of-way; no County dumpster permit found

Lorton has no town public works department, and no Fairfax County permit for a dumpster on a public street was found. Most public streets in Lorton are state-maintained, so the right-of-way belongs to VDOT, and VDOT's land use permit regulations allow trash receptacles beside non-limited-access highways only under a single use permit with written permission from adjoining owners (24VAC30-151-640); no VDOT rule written for short-term construction or cleanout roll-offs was found. The County's portable storage container page keeps containers off streets, sidewalks and trails and refers right-of-way questions to VDOT (703-259-2787). On your own lot, County zoning limits portable storage containers to 30 consecutive days per six months on single-family detached lots of 36,000 sq ft or less (60 days on larger lots, 7 days for townhouses), but its definition covers fully enclosed boxes for household goods, so it likely does not reach an open-top debris roll-off. Separately, zoning § 4102.1.B(3) bars outdoor storage from front yards in residential districts and caps it at 100 sq ft; the County has not said whether a temporary roll-off on a driveway counts as outdoor storage. Ask the County's Zoning Permits Section (703-222-1082) before parking a bin in the front yard for long.

I-95 Landfill Complex on Furnace Road: resident drop-off, small rubble loads only

Fairfax County's I-95 Landfill Complex at 9850 Furnace Road is inside Lorton. Residents (proof of County residency may be asked for) can drop off trash, brush, yard waste, metal and appliances, plus household hazardous waste and electronics on Wednesdays and Saturdays. July 2026–June 2027 resident fees: trash $98 a ton ($39 minimum) or $21 for 1–5 bags and $28 for 6–10 bags; brush $59 a ton; refrigerant appliances $15 each; passenger tires $14 each; sofas, mattress sets, carpet and similar large items $17 each. Brick, concrete, dirt and rock are $109 a ton ($49 minimum) and limited to 2 cubic yards a household a day, toilets, sinks and tubs included. The site's July 2023 rules bar commercial loads of rubble and any open-top or roll-off box over 15 cubic yards, so a rented roll-off goes to the hauler's own disposal site, not here.

Household trash service leaves out renovation debris

About 90 percent of Fairfax County homes and businesses use a private collection company, and the County serves the rest through Solid Waste Collection Areas. The County's collection rules leave stumps, dirt, rock and brick, refrigerant appliances, and waste produced by a tree-removal company or home-renovation firm out of regular trash, and large or bulky items need a separate pickup: ask your private collector, or, if the County collects your trash, use one of its five free special pickups a fiscal year. County rules also bar collecting ordinary commercial trash in open-top containers, roll-off boxes included, so treat a rented roll-off as a debris container, not a substitute for weekly garbage.

Check the source

Open roll-offs and household trash do not mix

Fairfax County Code § 109.1-5-6 sets standards for every refuse container, roll-offs included: a container used for refuse must have a tight-fitting lid kept closed when not in use, and open-top containers may not be used to collect, store or haul refuse or other putrescible items. Roll-offs also need reflectors, and containers of 2 cubic yards or more must show the owner's name, phone number and accepted materials. In practice an open-top roll-off is for construction, remodeling and cleanout debris; bagged household garbage and food waste belong in your regular trash service or a lidded container.

Questions about renting in Lorton.

Do I need a permit to put a roll-off on the street in Lorton?

Probably, if any part of it sits on a public road. Lorton has no town government, and no Fairfax County permit for street dumpsters was found; most public roads here are state-maintained, so VDOT's land use permit rules govern the right-of-way, and the closest VDOT rule (24VAC30-151-640) allows trash receptacles beside non-limited-access roads only under a single use permit with written consent from neighboring owners. The County's portable storage container page sends right-of-way questions to VDOT at 703-259-2787; call before delivery rather than assuming a curbside bin is allowed.

Can I haul renovation debris to the I-95 landfill in Lorton myself instead of renting?

For small jobs, yes, with limits. Fairfax County residents can bring trash, brush, appliances and small amounts of rubble to the I-95 Landfill Complex at 9850 Furnace Road. Brick, concrete, dirt and rock cost $109 a ton ($49 minimum) and are capped at 2 cubic yards a household a day; ordinary trash is $98 a ton or $21 for up to five bags. Commercial loads of rubble and roll-off boxes over 15 cubic yards are not accepted, so a large remodel still calls for a rented container.
