Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Matoaca.

Matoaca is a riverside village with no town hall, so the rules come from Chesterfield County: any company paid to haul your debris needs a County license, and the street in front of your house is almost certainly a VDOT road where we found no dumpster permit, so the box belongs on your driveway or yard. Before booking, confirm your Petersburg-addressed lot is really in Chesterfield and not in the City of Petersburg or Dinwiddie, then compare a Midlothian-based franchise with a Petersburg yard a few miles away.

The first decision in Matoaca

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That publishes prices ($379 to $459 for 6 to 20 yards, typically 7 days) and short 10- to 11-ft bins, but dispatches from Midlothian and warns of mileage fees by address, and publishes no tonnage. Meridian Waste runs from 333-B Industrial Drive in Petersburg, much closer to Matoaca, and offers larger 10- to 40-yard boxes, but publishes no prices, rental days or weight allowance. For a small cleanout, Bin There's posted price is the benchmark; for a big tear-out, ask Meridian for a written quote with tons included.

Your local checklist
  1. Check the County GIS or your tax bill to confirm your 23803 'Petersburg' address is in Chesterfield County, since the ZIP also covers the City of Petersburg and part of Dinwiddie.
  2. Ask the hauler to confirm it holds a current Chesterfield County hauler license under County Code § 11-12.
  3. Pick a firm, level spot on your driveway or yard clear of the road shoulder and ditch, because Matoaca's streets are VDOT right-of-way.

Keep it on your lot: Matoaca's streets are VDOT roads

Chesterfield County says VDOT maintains the majority of roads in the county, so a container on a Matoaca street or shoulder would sit in state right-of-way, where Virginia's land use permit rule (24VAC30-151-40) requires a VDOT permit for anything placed there. We found no VDOT or County rule written specifically for dumpsters, and no County permit for one in the street, so we cannot tell you a street placement is allowed; set the roll-off on your driveway or yard instead. Chesterfield's County Code has no section on dumpsters or storage containers, and its zoning ordinance addresses temporary containers on a residential lot separately from permanent screened enclosures (see the zoning note).

What matters locally

Southern Area Convenience Center: $9 a pickup load, $15 for debris

Matoaca's nearest County drop-off is the Southern Area Convenience Center at 6700 Landfill Drive, Chester (804-748-1297), open 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day except listed holidays. Residents with proof of Chesterfield residency pay $9 for a pickup load of household trash or brush ($18 with a trailer up to 10 ft) and $15 for a pickup load of construction and demolition debris ($30 with a short trailer, no asbestos, lead or straight concrete or asphalt loads, double load maximum). Commercial C&D is refused, dump trucks are barred, and a small contractor working on a County home must register first.

Appliances, mattresses and tires have their own fees

At the same County centers, Freon appliances cost $15 each and other appliances $10, mattresses $9 (three sets per household a year), and tires $2 off the rim or $5 on the rim, five at most. Household hazardous waste from County residents is free; latex paint can be dried and thrown out, but oil-based paint goes to a County collection event. Cash over $50 bills and coins are not accepted; cards are.

Chesterfield zoning: temporary containers and dumpster screening

Chesterfield's zoning ordinance (Chapter 19.2, in effect since January 2026) lets a portable storage container sit on a Matoaca lot or driveway for up to 90 days, and its definition leaves out boxes hauling debris from an active construction site. A separate clause, § 19.2-41.I.3, asks for masonry or concrete screening around solid waste storage areas such as dumpsters, built to match the building they serve; that describes a permanent trash enclosure rather than a short-term cleanout bin, but the ordinance does not say so outright, so ask the Planning Department if your bin will stay more than a few weeks.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Matoaca.

Can the roll-off go on the road in front of my Matoaca house?

We could not confirm that it can. Chesterfield says VDOT maintains most roads in the county, and Virginia's rules require a VDOT land use permit for anything placed in state right-of-way. We found no dumpster-specific permit from VDOT or the County, so the safe plan is your driveway or yard; if you truly need the street, ask VDOT before the delivery.

Can I just haul a few loads of remodeling debris myself instead?

Yes, if you live in Chesterfield. The Southern Area Convenience Center on Landfill Drive in Chester takes residential construction and demolition debris for $15 a pickup load or $30 with a trailer under 10 ft, up to a double load, with proof of residency. It refuses commercial C&D, asbestos, lead, dump trucks and straight loads of concrete or asphalt, and a contractor must register first.
