New Hampshire / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Salem.

Salem has no Town curbside pickup, and the Shannon Road transfer station won't take construction debris. Residents can buy up to three C&D coupons a year for 500 pounds each at the private LL&S station on Lowell Road, which suits small jobs. For a kitchen, roof or basement tear-out, a roll-off is easier. Bin There Dump That posts prices from $550 for a 10-yard bin, while Casella and WM quote on request. Keep the container in your driveway, because a street or sidewalk spot needs an Engineering Division permit.

The first decision in Salem

Match the terms to your project.

Bin There Dump That is the only one of the three that publishes Salem prices: $550, $650 and $750 for 10-, 15- and 20-yard bins, with a 7-day rental and 1 to 2 tons of disposal included. Its overage and extra-day rates are not posted. Casella goes up to 40 yards and WM lists 10- to 30-yard containers, which fit larger jobs, but neither publishes a price, rental length or weight allowance for Salem, so compare written quotes on the same size.

Your local checklist

Plan a driveway drop. If the container must sit on the road, sidewalk or shoulder, ask the Engineering Division (603-890-2036) for the §420-9 permit before delivery, and ask who controls the road if it is a numbered route such as Route 28.
Get written quotes that state the rental days, included tons, per-ton overage and extra-day charge, and ask which disposal site the load goes to. If the debris comes from a business, ask whether Salem's 'designated private facility' rule for commercial waste applies.
For a small cleanup, price the Town options first: up to three LL&S C&D coupons a year (500 pounds each; confirm whether the price is $25 or $35) and your bulky coupons at Shannon Road. Mattresses cost $25 each from January 1, 2027, and tires must go elsewhere.

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

Bin There Dump That (New Hampshire franchise)

Published sizes: 10-yard (10' x 7' x 4'), 15-yard (11' x 8' x 4.5') and 20-yard (11' x 8' x 6') bins, per the Salem page and the NH rates page.
Rental & weight terms: The rates page lists a 7-day rental with delivery and pickup included. Included disposal weight is 1 ton (10-yard), 1.5 tons (15-yard) and 2 tons (20-yard); that is the weight covered by the price, not a maximum load. Overage per ton and extra-day charges are not published; ask for them in writing. Hazardous materials and food waste are not accepted. Fill only to the top edge.
Price basis: $550 (10-yard), $650 (15-yard), $750 (20-yard), as published on the Salem page and NH rates page. Phone or text 603-451-6363.

Bin There Dump That has its own Salem page headed 'Construction Dumpster Rentals in Salem, New Hampshire', and Salem is on its NH Areas Served list. The franchise lists its office at 152 Exeter Road in Epping. Much of the page is template text with the town name inserted, and it gives no Salem address or disposal site. The bins are smaller, driveway-friendly units. Ask where the load will be dumped.

02 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Casella Waste Systems

Published sizes: Up to 40 cubic yards ('up to 16 truck loads'). The size comparison table on the page is empty, so individual sizes are not published.
Rental & weight terms: The page says most rentals include a standard rental period and more time can be requested, but gives no length. Included weight, overage and extra-day rates are not published; request a written quote. Hazardous materials are not accepted.
Price basis: Not published. Casella says price depends on size, location and rental length, and one quoted rate covers the container, delivery and pickup. Phone 800-227-3552; support 802-683-3984 (weekdays 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.).

The page is headed 'Dumpster Rental in Salem, NH' but has no Salem address, hours or prices. Placement guidance: at least 3 feet clear on each side, 22 feet overhead and 34 feet of straight approach. Keep it off soft ground and grass, and do not block sidewalks, driveways or hydrants. Salt or sand an icy spot before winter delivery.

WM (Waste Management)

Published sizes: The page links to 10-, 20- and 30-yard dumpsters but gives no details for Salem.
Rental & weight terms: Rental days, included weight, overage and extra-day rates are not published; request a written quote.
Price basis: Not published. The page says to call 866-849-0076 about commercial service or dumpster rental.

WM's location page is headed 'Waste Services in the Salem, New Hampshire Area'. It is a thin page, so treat WM as a third quote to request rather than a fully described offer.

A street, sidewalk or shoulder spot needs an Engineering Division permit; no dumpster-specific form or fee was found

Salem's Streets and Sidewalks chapter (§420-9) says no person or company may place 'material of any nature' on the traveled portion of a public right-of-way, highway or street without a permit from the Engineering Department, and that the permit sets how long it is valid. The 'traveled way' is defined to include the paved road, sidewalks (paved or not) and road shoulders (§420-10). When deciding on a permit, the Department weighs public safety and convenience first, then nuisance and appearance, other options open to the applicant and the applicant's hardship (§420-11). Separately, the Vehicles and Traffic chapter (§466-16) bars placing any object in the traveled portion of a street, highway or sidewalk that impedes pedestrian or vehicle traffic, with a fine. The code does not use the word dumpster, and the Engineering Division's permit page lists only water, sewer, gas, grease interceptor, driveway and street-opening permits. No dumpster fee appears in the FY2026 Schedule of Fees. Treat a roll-off in the street as needing the §420-9 permit, and ask the Engineering Division (33 Geremonty Drive, 603-890-2036) how to apply, what it costs and how long it may stay. The simplest route is to keep the container in your own driveway. Numbered routes such as Route 28 (Broadway) may be state highways, so ask which agency controls the road before booking a street spot.

What matters locally

Construction debris goes to the private LL&S station on Lowell Road, using Town C&D coupons

The Shannon Road transfer station does not take C&D material, lumber or shingled sheathing, and Chapter 409 bars commercial use of its brush area. Instead, Salem residents can buy C&D coupons from the Town Clerk/Collections office in Town Hall (603-890-2110) for disposal of wood, construction and similar materials at the LL&S transfer station, a privately owned site at 87 Lowell Road. Each coupon covers up to 500 pounds, weight over that is charged 7 cents a pound in cash at LL&S, and a household may buy three coupons a year. The Town's coupon page lists the coupon at $25, but the FY2026 Schedule of Fees (effective January 1, 2026) lists the 'C&D Coupon (LL&S)' at $35, so confirm the price when you buy. Call LL&S at 603-894-9800 to ask what it accepts and when it is open. For a big remodel, a roll-off is usually simpler than several 500-pound trips.

Shannon Road transfer station: $60 sticker, three bulky coupons, no tires

The Town transfer station at 101-109 Shannon Road is for residents only, and businesses must hire private haulers. A windshield permit costs $60, expires each September 30 and is not prorated. It is free for residents 65 and older and for veterans rated 100% permanently and totally disabled. Buy it at the Collections office on the bottom floor of Town Hall, bringing a vehicle registration with a Salem address. The Town Council has approved raising the permit to $70 from January 1, 2027. Each household gets one set of three bulky coupons a year for furniture, carpet, siding and similar items. From the same 2027 fee schedule, mattresses and box springs cost $25 each and can no longer go on a bulky coupon. Scrap metal and brush need no coupon, refrigerators must have the doors removed, and video screens over 4 inches need a paid coupon. Tires, commercial waste and hazardous materials are not accepted. Hours: Tuesday and Thursday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 2:45 p.m., and Wednesday to 6:45 p.m. Phone 603-890-2164.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Salem.

Can construction debris from a Salem renovation go to the Town transfer station?

No. Chapter 409 runs the Shannon Road station solely for residential waste generated in Salem, and says lumber and other demolition materials are not accepted. Instead, the Town sells residents C&D coupons for the privately owned LL&S transfer station at 87 Lowell Road. Each covers up to 500 pounds, with weight over that charged 7 cents a pound, and a household may buy three a year. The coupon page says $25, but the FY2026 fee schedule lists $35, so check the price at Town Hall. A roll-off company takes the load to its own disposal site.

Do I need a permit to put a roll-off on a Salem street?

Expect to. Section 420-9 of the Town code requires an Engineering Department permit before anyone places material of any nature on the traveled portion of a public street, and the traveled way includes sidewalks and shoulders. Section 466-16 separately bans objects that impede traffic in a street or on a sidewalk. Neither section names dumpsters, and no dumpster fee appears in the FY2026 fee schedule, so ask the Engineering Division at 33 Geremonty Drive (603-890-2036) about the application, cost and time limit. A container entirely in your own driveway needs no street permit.
