Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Rockville.

Inside Rockville City limits, City curbside service and special collections handle household trash, furniture, metal and electronics but refuse construction and contractor debris, so a remodel or a heavy cleanout needs a private roll-off. Public Works allows a dumpster on a City street only when it cannot safely go on your property, and the right-of-way permit costs $400 on residential roads with weeks of review. For most houses and townhouses, the practical choice is a bin short enough for the driveway. Whichever company you pick needs a Rockville refuse license.

The first decision in Rockville

Start with an eligible hauler.

Action Dumpsters has the largest range (10 to 30 yards), the longest included rental (12 days) and a published $125-per-ton overage, at $449–$649 with 1 to 3 tons. Bin There Dump That Mid-Maryland is dearer per yard ($520–$595 for 10 to 20 yards, 1.5–2 tons, 10 days) but its bins are only 10–11 ft long. The Central Maryland franchise of the same brand adds 4- and 6-yard bins but publishes no prices or tonnage.

Your local checklist

Check that your address is inside Rockville City limits (the City's pickup-day map shows City-served homes), because the City permit and zoning rules do not apply in the Rockville-addressed parts of unincorporated Montgomery County.
Measure the driveway before choosing a size: a street placement needs a City Right-of-Way Protection permit ($400 on residential roads), granted only if Public Works agrees the bin cannot safely go on your lot.
Ask the City's zoning staff whether a debris roll-off kept more than five days counts as a portable storage unit needing a Temporary Use Permit (up to 30 days), and get the hauler's tonnage and extra-day terms in writing.

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

Action Dumpsters

Published sizes: 10-, 15-, 20-, 25- and 30-yard roll-offs
Rental & weight terms: The home page lists a 12-day rental for every size, with 1 ton (10 yd), 1.5 tons (15 yd), 2 tons (20 yd), 2.5 tons (25 yd) or 3 tons (30 yd) included, and $125 per extra ton. No extra-day rate is published.
Price basis: Published: $449 (10 yd), $499 (15 yd), $549 (20 yd), $599 (25 yd), $649 (30 yd), delivery included. The Rockville page shows only the $449–$649 range.

Roll-off company based at 17070 Railroad St, Gaithersburg (301-929-1111). Its Rockville page names the city and nearby Bethesda, Potomac and Gaithersburg. The page refuses hazardous materials such as paint and chemicals but gives no full banned-items list, and it says nothing about street permits.

02 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Bin There Dump That Mid-Maryland

Published sizes: 6-yard (brick, dirt, concrete and masonry only), 10-, 15- and 20-yard bins, 10–11 ft long
Rental & weight terms: The Rockville page gives a 10-day standard rental with 1.5 tons (10 yd), 1.75 tons (15 yd) or 2 tons (20 yd) included. Overage per ton and extra-day fees are not published; request a written quote.
Price basis: Published on the Rockville page: $520 (10 yd), $560 (15 yd), $595 (20 yd); 6-yard masonry bin from $550.

Franchise office listed on its contact page at 805 Barkwood Ct., Linthicum Heights (443-806-8878), and Rockville is on its areas-served list. The page prints the 10-yard height as "-19'", an obvious typo; it is 10 ft long and 7 ft wide. The small footprint suits Rockville's townhouse driveways.

03 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Bin There Dump That Central Maryland

Published sizes: 4-, 6-, 10-, 15- and 20-yard bins (10 x 5.5 x 2 ft up to 11 x 8 x 6 ft)
Rental & weight terms: The rates page gives a typical rental period of 7 days, with longer rentals on request. Included weight, overage per ton and extra-day fees are not published; it warns that overfilled bins can cost extra.
Price basis: Not published; the Rockville and rates pages ask you to request a quote (301-695-2739).

A second Bin There Dump That franchise, with its office at 302 E 4th St, Frederick, also has a Rockville page and lists Rockville among its areas served. Same brand as the Mid-Maryland franchise, so it is not an independent comparison, but quotes from both may differ.

Dumpsters on City streets: Right-of-Way Protection permit, $400 on residential roads

Rockville Public Works' Protection of Right-of-Way permit page says pods and dumpsters are allowed in the right-of-way or easement only if you show they cannot safely be placed on private property, as Public Works decides. You apply online, upload a checklist and plans, pay review and permit fees, and may need a pre-construction meeting. Published review times for single-family projects are four weeks for a first submission. The Public Works Development Fees schedule (effective July 1, 2026) lists the Right-of-Way Protection Permit at $400 on primary and secondary residential roads and $1,065 on all other road classes. Neither page gives a maximum number of days. Contact Public Works at 240-314-8500 or pw@rockvillemd.gov. On private property, the City zoning ordinance (Sec. 25.6.8.4(b)(5), in force since August 1, 2026) lets portable storage units sit at single-unit, duplex and townhouse lots for up to 30 days under a Temporary Use Permit, with no permit needed for five days or less; it does not define whether a debris roll-off counts as a portable storage unit, so ask the City.

What matters locally

City special collection for bulk, metal and electronics (no construction debris)

Households that get City trash service can book bulk, metal, electronics and large-branch pickups online; staff email a date within one or two business days. Bulk waste is limited to six appointments a year, and each item must be under 500 lb and 60 cubic feet. Lumber must be cut to 4-ft bundles, five bundles per appointment. Shingles, bricks, cinder blocks, concrete, soil, sod, tires and construction or contractor debris are refused. The page lists no fee. Set items at the front curb by 6 a.m. (Recycling and Refuse Division, 240-314-8568).

Shady Grove Transfer Station: free under 500 lb, $105 a ton for C&D

Montgomery County's transfer station takes residents at 16101 Frederick Road, Derwood (7 a.m.–5 p.m., Monday–Saturday) and requires proof of County residency. The County fee table charges nothing for trash or yard waste loads under 500 lb, $70 a ton for trash over 500 lb, $105 a ton for construction and demolition material or open-top roll-off boxes, and $75 a ton for concrete, dirt or rubble. Rockville sends household hazardous waste here because the City no longer collects it.

Yard waste goes out in paper bags; free wood chips on Rothgeb Drive

City curbside service takes yard waste in biodegradable paper bags or 32-gallon cans under 50 lb each. Up to five extra trash bags may sit beside the cart; more than that needs a bulk appointment. Free wood and wood chips are available at 14625 Rothgeb Drive.

Haulers need a City refuse license

Rockville City Code § 20-31 bars anyone from collecting or transporting refuse inside the City without a license from the City, renewed each July and backed by a $500 bond under § 20-32, so ask your roll-off company whether it holds a current Rockville license. Section 20-9(f) also keeps roofing, soil and other repair or building debris out of regular City collection, which is why a remodel needs a private container.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Rockville.

Can I put a dumpster on my Rockville street?

Only with a City Public Works Protection of Right-of-Way permit, and only if you show the bin cannot safely be placed on private property. You apply online with a checklist and plans; Public Works lists four weeks for a first review of single-family projects. The fee schedule effective July 1, 2026 lists $400 for primary and secondary residential roads and $1,065 for other roads. No maximum number of days is published, so ask Public Works (240-314-8500) before you book delivery.

Will the City take my renovation debris instead of a roll-off?

No. Rockville's curbside trash service lists construction and contractor debris as not accepted, and the special collection program also refuses it, along with shingles, bricks, concrete, soil and tires. You can haul small loads yourself to the County's Shady Grove Transfer Station in Derwood, which charges $105 a ton for construction and demolition material over its 500-lb free threshold for trash.
