Dumpster rental
in San Antonio.

Inside San Antonio city limits, the City's twice-yearly bulky pickup and four Bulky Waste Collection Centers handle furniture and a cubic yard of lumber, not a kitchen gut or a roof. For that, rent from a private company and ask whether its trucks hold the City's commercial hauler permit. Keep the bin on your driveway; a container in a City street or sidewalk falls under Public Works' Lane/Sidewalk Closure permit process.

The first decision in San Antonio

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That's San Antonio franchise rents small 6- to 20-yard bins that fit a driveway, with a typical 7-day rental. Tiger Sanitation, based on US Highway 87 E, starts at 20 yards and goes up to 40 for whole-house cleanouts and big remodels. Neither publishes prices, included weight or overage rates, so get both quotes in writing.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is inside San Antonio city limits rather than Alamo Heights, Leon Valley, Live Oak or another suburban city, since a San Antonio mailing address does not decide which City's rules apply.
Ask the roll-off company which business name holds its City of San Antonio Commercial Solid Waste Hauler Vehicle Permit and compare it with SWMD's published permitted-hauler list.
If the bin cannot fit on your driveway, call Public Works ROW Management (210-207-6949) about a Lane/Sidewalk Closure permit, and check your HOA's deed restrictions on how long a container may stay in view.

Franchise page titled for San Antonio, listing 838 Sprucewood Lane, San Antonio, TX 78216 (it also shows 2020 Air Lawn St, 78227, and 4900 Broadway, Suite 500, 78209); phone 210-441-2121. Its area list also covers suburban cities such as Alamo Heights, Leon Valley and Converse. Its short 10- to 11-foot bins are the compact choice for a driveway. The franchise's phone number matches the number the City's permitted-hauler list gives for Dyjore Waste, LLC, but neither page says the two are the same business, so ask the company which name holds its City hauler permit.

San Antonio waste company at 6325 US Highway 87 E, San Antonio, TX 78222 (office hours Monday to Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., per its home page). Its roll-off page names San Antonio, offers residential roll-offs for remodels, garage cleanouts and whole-house cleanouts, and is the only supplier here with 30- and 40-yard boxes. Tiger Sanitation appears on the City's permitted private-hauler list (construction and demolition among its waste types), though the list shows the phone as 210-333-6287 rather than the 4287 number on the company site. The company's statement that driveway placements need no permit is its own claim, not a City source.

In the street: the City's Lane/Sidewalk Closure permit, not a parking permit

No City of San Antonio page read for this guide has a permit written specifically for a dumpster or roll-off. Public Works' Right-of-Way (ROW) Management issues street permits through its online ROW Permitting System, and its Parking Restriction permit page says temporary storage devices and construction-related parking must be requested under a Lane/Sidewalk Closure Permit instead. The City's permit-types page prices that permit at a $60 application fee plus a daily charge of 0.0723 times the square feet closed times the number of days. ROW permittees must first register as a company ($50) and carry insurance and a bond (the page lists $5 million combined general liability and umbrella and a $10,000-per-address or $100,000 blanket performance bond), so in practice the roll-off company, not the homeowner, would apply. Whether the City requires this permit for every residential roll-off on a City street has not been confirmed: call ROW Management at 210-207-6949 before a container goes on the pavement or sidewalk, and keep it on the driveway if you can. Deed-restricted subdivisions may also limit how long a container can sit in view, so check your HOA's rules.

Bulky Waste Collection Centers: four City sites, one cubic yard of construction debris

City residents who pay the environmental fee can take bulky items to four SWMD centers: Bitters (1800 Wurzbach Parkway, 78216), Frio City Road (1531 Frio City Road, 78226), Culebra (7030 Culebra Road, 78238) and Rigsby Road (2755 Rigsby Road, 78222). The City lists them as open Tuesday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Bring a recent CPS Energy bill showing the environmental fee and a photo ID. Each visit is capped at 4 cubic yards of bulky items and 1 cubic yard of construction material and lumber, loaded no higher than the truck bed's fender. Household trash, brush, soil, rocks, concrete, boards longer than 10 feet and unbagged insulation are not accepted, and the centers are for residential customers only, not commercial haulers.

Curbside brush and bulky pickup comes twice a year and skips remodel debris

SWMD collects brush and bulky items at the curb twice a year. A door hanger arrives 7 to 10 days ahead, and the pile must be out by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the collection week, no larger than eight cubic yards and within eight feet of the curb in front of the house (even where garbage goes out in the alley). Concrete, construction or demolition material, roofing, soil and rocks, glass and mirrors, and hazardous waste are not taken. Mixing non-brush material into a brush pile or setting a pile out after crews pass can bring a fine of up to $2,000 a day plus a collection fee. Out-of-cycle collections can be bought for a fee quoted by size; call 3-1-1 or 210-207-6000.

Check the source

Regular household trash is City-only; a temporary roll-off is a separate service

San Antonio City Code makes City garbage, brush and refuse service mandatory for residences (§ 14-30(a)) and bars anyone from providing garbage collection service to those dwellings without a City franchise (§ 14-45(b)). That rule protects the weekly cart service; it does not stop you renting a temporary roll-off for remodel or cleanout debris from a hauler that holds the City solid waste hauler vehicle permit. The Code treats dumpsters and roll-offs as detachable containers used by commercial collectors (§ 14-1). Keep putrescible household garbage in your City cart rather than the rented bin.

Questions about renting in San Antonio.

Can I take remodeling debris to a City of San Antonio Bulky Waste Collection Center instead of renting a roll-off?

Only a small amount. The four centers (Bitters, Frio City Road, Culebra and Rigsby Road) take up to one cubic yard of construction material and lumber per visit from residents who show a CPS Energy bill with the environmental fee and a photo ID, and they refuse soil, rocks, concrete and boards over 10 feet. Curbside bulky pickup takes no construction, roofing or demolition material at all, so a larger remodel needs a private roll-off.

Does a roll-off company need a City permit to serve my San Antonio house?

The City requires anyone hauling commercial solid waste within San Antonio to hold a Commercial Solid Waste Hauler Vehicle Permit under Chapter 14, Article IV of the City Code, priced by truck weight, and SWMD publishes a list of permitted haulers with the waste types each handles. The City's pages read for this guide do not say whether a homeowner's cleanout container counts as commercial solid waste, so the simplest protection is to hire a company that holds the permit and appears on the list.
