Florida / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Miami.

City of Miami Solid Waste picks up house garbage and bulky trash but does not rent roll-offs, so a box at a Miami home comes from a private company holding a City franchise. Pick one on the City's current franchised-hauler list, such as Great Waste or Coastal Waste, keep the box on your own lot, and use the Mini Dump or weekly bulky pickup for furniture and appliances.

The first decision in Miami

Start with an eligible hauler.

Neither company publishes prices or included tonnage, so you are comparing written quotes. Great Waste is a roll-off specialist on the City's roll-off list that states a 7-day rental with delivery, pickup and disposal included and offers four sizes up to 40 yards. Coastal Waste is a full-service franchised hauler with a hauling yard on NW 74th Avenue and transfer stations in Miami, also with 10- to 40-yard boxes, but it does not publish its rental period. Ask both for the days included, tonnage allowance, overage rate and daily extra-day fee.

Your local checklist

Confirm the parcel is inside the City of Miami and not in unincorporated Miami-Dade (Kendall, Westchester, Fontainebleau) or a neighboring city such as Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Hialeah or Doral, which franchise haulers separately.
Check that the company appears on the City's current Non-Exclusive Franchise Commercial Haulers list before you book, and get the rental days, included tonnage, overage rate and extra-day fee in writing.
If the box cannot fit on your driveway or lawn, ask the hauler to handle the Public Works right-of-way permit or call Resilience and Public Works at 305-416-1200 before delivery, and check whether your street is a City, County or state road.

2 researched options.

Listings are an editorial starting point, not a complete market ranking. Supplier-published amounts are not Dumpsterly quotes. Confirm address eligibility, material acceptance, dates and the full delivered total.

01 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Great Waste Services, LLC

Published sizes: 10-yard (12 x 8 x 4 ft, about 3 to 4 pickup loads), 20-yard (22 x 8 x 4 ft, about 6 to 8 loads), 30-yard (22 x 8 x 6 ft, about 9 to 12 loads) and 40-yard (22 x 8 x 8 ft, about 12 to 16 loads).
Rental & weight terms: The container-sizes page says every container includes a 7-day rental, delivery, pickup and disposal; the residential page says extra rental days and prohibited items cost more. Included weight, overage and extra-day rates are not published; request a written quote.
Price basis: Not published; request a written quote.

Great Waste's site gives its address as 850 NW 144th St, Miami, FL 33168 (phone 1-877-597-4275) and lists Miami and Miami-Dade County among its service areas; its residential page covers home renovations, cleanouts, landscaping debris and moving. It appears in the 'Specialized Haulers (Roll-Off)' group of the City of Miami's non-exclusive franchise commercial haulers list (updated October 28, 2026). Its yard address is a Miami mailing address north of the City limits, so confirm delivery timing.

02 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Coastal Waste & Recycling of Florida

Published sizes: 10-, 20-, 30- and 40-yard open-top roll-offs. Coastal lists dimensions of 8 x 12 x 3.5 ft (10-yard), 8 x 21 ft 2.5 in x 4.5 ft (20-yard), 8 x 21 ft 2.5 in x 6.5 ft (30-yard) and 8 x 21 ft 2.5 in x 8.5 ft (40-yard).
Rental & weight terms: Rental period, included weight, overage and extra-day charges are not published; the Miami-Dade page says pricing depends on size, debris and rental period. Coastal lists a weight for each size (about 4,100 pounds for the 10-yard up to about 6,000 pounds for the 40-yard) without saying whether that is the container's own weight or a load allowance, so ask what disposal tonnage is included.
Price basis: Not published; request a written quote.

Coastal's Miami-Dade County roll-off page says it serves communities across the county including Miami, Hialeah and Doral. Its locations page lists Miami West Hauling at 6767 NW 74 Ave., Miami, FL 33166 (305-635-5144), plus transfer stations at 3610 NW 50th Street and 317 NE 71st St in Miami. The Miami-Dade page shows a 954 call number. Coastal appears in the 'Full Service Commercial Haulers' group of the City of Miami's non-exclusive franchise commercial haulers list (updated October 28, 2026), at the same NW 74th Avenue address.

Ask for delivery, pickup, included tons and days, per-ton overage, extra-day charges, fuel, tax, prohibited-item fees, swaps and blocked-trip charges. “Quote required” means the reviewed source did not establish a usable fixed total.

Keep the box on your own property; the street needs a Public Works permit we could not match to dumpsters

We did not find a City of Miami permit written specifically for a roll-off in the street. The City's Department of Resilience and Public Works issues right-of-way permits through its iPW online system and says contractors must register as a Public Works contractor before applying for any closure permit, so a homeowner cannot simply pull one for a box at the curb. If the box must sit on the street, swale or sidewalk, ask your franchised hauler whether it will obtain the permit, or call Public Works at 305-416-1200 (internetpublicworks@miamigov.com) before delivery. Many major roads in Miami are County or state roads, which are permitted by Miami-Dade County or FDOT rather than the City. On private property we found no City time limit for a temporary roll-off, but the City's only published storage rule we found is for carts: they must come back from the curb within 24 hours after pickup. Older Miami lots are often narrow with short driveways, so measure before booking, lay boards under the rails, and keep the box clear of the sidewalk.

What matters locally

City Mini Dump on NW 20th Street takes one pickup load a day from residents, but no construction debris

The Department of Solid Waste runs a Mini Dump at 1290 NW 20th Street for City of Miami residents, open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to noon (closed Sundays, Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Christmas Day). Bring one proof of City residency, such as a Florida driver's license or ID, a utility bill from the last three months, a lease or a tax bill. You get one trip a day of up to one pickup-truck load. It takes household furniture and mattresses, electronics, appliances such as refrigerators and stoves, and clean yard trash. It does not take household garbage, construction and demolition debris (roofing, drywall, tile, carpet, sinks and tubs, metal fencing), hazardous waste, paint or auto parts, and it turns away dump trucks, commercial vehicles and contractors' loads. For remodel debris you still need a roll-off from a franchised hauler.

Weekly curbside bulky trash, with size limits, and County drop-off for household chemicals

City of Miami homes get bulky trash collection once a week. Put items in front of the property the evening before your scheduled day; household furniture, electronics, appliances and clean yard trash are taken, and the City's schedule page says items must be tied in bundles no longer than three feet and no heavier than 50 pounds each. Carts must be placed at least five feet from trees, cars and poles and taken back in within 24 hours after pickup to avoid a citation. Paint, pesticides, solvents and pool chemicals cannot go in a roll-off or bulky pile; the City sends residents to Miami-Dade County's home chemical collection centers, which accept non-commercial household waste only. Call 305-468-5900 for the nearest center and its hours.

Questions about renting in Miami.

Will City of Miami Solid Waste bring a roll-off to my house?

Not as far as the City's published services show. The Department of Solid Waste collects garbage, recycling and weekly bulky trash at homes and residential properties of up to three units and runs the Mini Dump for residents, but its pages offer no roll-off rentals. Roll-off service in the City is provided by private companies that hold a City solid waste franchise; the City publishes its list of non-exclusive franchise haulers, including a separate group of specialized roll-off haulers, on its Commercial Haulers page.

Can any dumpster company deliver in the City of Miami?

No. The City code makes a City franchise a condition of being in the business of removing garbage, trash or waste from any premises in the city, and franchisees pay the City a per-container permit fee for each temporary roll-off they place. Use a company on the Department of Solid Waste's current franchised-hauler list (updated October 28, 2026); Great Waste Services is in its roll-off group and Coastal Waste & Recycling in its full-service group. A broker or out-of-area company that is not on the list should not be placing boxes in the City.
