Dumpster rental
in Monmouth.

Monmouth's transfer station on Route 135 charges demolition debris by the pickup load ($35 to $50 for a level bed, $15 per foot for a trailer) and shingles at $200 to $300 a load, which suits small jobs. For a gut renovation, roof or camp cleanout, a roll-off saves trips. Casella and Riverside Disposal both name Monmouth on their own pages, but neither posts a price, so get written quotes. No Town hauler license or dumpster placement rule was found, so keep the container on your own property and call the Town Office about anything near the road.

The first decision in Monmouth

Match the terms to your project.

Neither company publishes a Monmouth price, rental length or weight allowance, so compare written quotes. Riverside has a Monmouth page that lists roll-offs and demolition among its local services, publishes exact 15-, 20- and 30-yard dimensions and lists separate charges for Freon items, tires and electronics, but it is based in Chelsea, east of Augusta. Casella's Monmouth page goes up to 40 yards and spells out its clearance and access needs, which matter on narrow pond and camp roads.

Your local checklist
  1. Before ordering, measure a spot on your own driveway or lot with about 22 feet overhead and a 34-foot straight approach. Monmouth has no written dumpster permit, so call the Town Office at 207-481-9400 before putting anything near a town road.
  2. Ask Casella and Riverside for written quotes that state the rental days, included tons, per-ton overage and any delivery charge to your Monmouth address.
  3. For a small job, compare the transfer station's truckload prices ($35 to $50 a level pickup bed, $200 to $300 for a load of shingles), and confirm it is still taking demolition debris after the March 2026 fee debate.

Up to 40 cubic yards ("up to 16 truck loads"). The page's size comparison table is empty, so individual sizes and dimensions are not published.
Rental & weight terms
One rate covers the container, delivery, pickup and support. The page refers to a standard rental period that can be extended but does not state its length. Included weight, overage and extra-day rates are not published; request a written quote.
Price basis

The page is titled Dumpster Rental in Monmouth, ME, but its content is generic, with nothing specific to Monmouth. It asks for 3 feet of clearance on each side, 22 feet overhead and a 34-foot straight approach, with no placement on grass or soft ground and none blocking sidewalks, driveways or hydrants. Measure those clearances before ordering for a camp lot on a narrow pond road.

Riverside has its own Monmouth page. It lists curbside pickup, dumpsters and roll-offs, recycling and demolition as services there, and says offerings vary by location and should be confirmed. Monmouth also appears on the company's areas-served list. Chelsea is on the other side of Augusta from Monmouth, so ask about delivery charges.

No dumpster-specific street rule found in Monmouth's ordinances

None of the ordinances Monmouth posts online addresses a dumpster or roll-off on a town road or right-of-way. The Street and Road Ordinance requires a written permit from the Town Manager for excavation within a Town right-of-way and for new driveway entrances, and the Parking Ordinance regulates vehicles, including a winter overnight parking ban from November 1 to April 15 (10 p.m. to 6 a.m.) and a list of no-parking zones. Neither one mentions containers. That is a gap in the written rules, not permission. Plan to keep the roll-off on your own driveway or lot, and before asking for street placement call the Town Office at 207-481-9400 (Town Manager and Code Enforcement Officer, 859 Main Street). Several roads through Monmouth, including Routes 126, 135 and 202, are state-numbered highways, so ask MaineDOT about anything in those rights-of-way.

What matters locally

Monmouth's transfer station charges demolition debris by the truckload

The Monmouth Transfer Station at 126 Route 135 is open Wednesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and also serves Wales residents under an interlocal agreement. The 2026 fee schedule prices demolition debris and bulky waste by volume, not weight: a pickup loaded level with the top of the bed costs $35 (5-foot bed), $40 (6-foot), $45 (7-foot) or $50 (8-foot), and trailers or miscellaneous debris cost $15 per lineal foot. Insulation must be bagged and costs $10 a bag. Shingles cost $200 for a half-ton pickup load or equivalent and $300 for anything larger, so a roofing job can cost more there than other demolition debris. In March 2026 the Select Board raised fees and debated whether to keep demolition service and buy a scale, so confirm that the station still takes your material before you haul it.

Item charges for mattresses, furniture, appliances and tires

The same 2026 schedule charges $20 per bulky item such as a couch, chair or area rug, and $30 for each mattress or box spring. Stoves, dishwashers, washers, dryers and microwaves go on the metal pile free. Items containing Freon cost $20 for an air conditioner and $25 for other appliances. Tires cost $5, or $8 on the rim, and truck and equipment tires are not accepted. Monitors, TVs, printers and laptops are $8 each, vehicle batteries $8, and fluorescent lamps free. Propane tanks under 20 pounds cost $5, 20-pound tanks $10, and larger tanks are refused. Brush is accepted from households only, not commercial loads. Keep these items out of a rented roll-off: Riverside, for example, bills Freon items, tires and electronics separately.

Questions about renting in Monmouth.

Do I need a Town permit to put a dumpster in front of my Monmouth house?

Monmouth's posted ordinances don't say. The Street and Road Ordinance requires a Town Manager permit only for excavation in a Town right-of-way and for new driveway entrances, and the Parking Ordinance covers vehicles, including the November 1 to April 15 overnight ban. Neither mentions dumpsters or roll-offs. A missing rule is not permission: place the container on your own property, and call the Town Office at 207-481-9400 before using any part of a town road. For state routes such as 126, 135 and 202, ask MaineDOT.

Does Monmouth's flow control ordinance mean my renovation debris has to go to the Town?

Not as written. The 1986 Solid Waste Flow Control Ordinance requires solid waste generated in Monmouth to go to the MMWAC disposal site in Auburn or an approved transfer station. However, its definitions class construction and demolition debris as unacceptable waste, and they exclude unacceptable waste from the solid waste covered by that rule. Clean fill such as earth, rock and concrete is also exempt. Household trash mixed into a cleanout roll-off may still fall under the rule, so ask your hauler where the load will be disposed of. You can also take small loads to the Town transfer station yourself, at 126 Route 135, open Wednesday through Saturday.
