Dumpster rental
in Topsham.

Topsham has no Town curbside trash or roll-off service that we found, so a dumpster is a private rental. Bin There Dump That, which has a Topsham address, is the one company posting prices; Casella quotes on request. Ask both for rental days and included tonnage in writing. Keep the box on your driveway, because the Town's only posted street permit is for excavation. For smaller jobs, the residents-only Solid Waste Facility's per-yard demo fees may beat a rental.

The first decision in Topsham

Match the terms to your project.

Bin There Dump That posts flat prices for three sizes ($525 to $725) with driveway protection but no rental length or weight allowance. Casella posts no sizes, prices or terms beyond a maximum of 40 yards, so it can only be compared once you have a written quote.

Your local checklist

Ask Bin There Dump That and Casella for the rental period, included tons and per-ton overage in writing; neither publishes them for Topsham.
Before a roll-off goes in a Town street, call Topsham Public Works or the Town Office; the posted Street Opening Permit covers excavation only, and we found no published dumpster rule.
Price your debris at the Solid Waste Facility ($80 per yard for mixed sheetrock and shingles, $40 per yard for bulky demo wood and siding) and take mattresses, tires and appliances there on coupons if the rental company refuses or surcharges them.

Topsham's street permit covers digging, not dumpsters; no container rule found

The Public Works permits page lists a Driveway Entrance Permit, a Street Opening Permit, a Utility Location Permit and a 2026 Road Posted Permit. The Street Opening Permit form (Chapter 184) applies to excavating in streets, sidewalks and other public right-of-way: a $100 application fee, possible bond or deposit for non-utility applicants, a 30-day permit term, Dig Safe notice first, and no excavation from November 15 to April 1 except emergencies. The form does not mention dumpsters, containers or other obstructions, so we found no Topsham rule that says whether a roll-off in the road needs a permit, how long it may stay, or what it costs. That is not the same as saying no permit is needed. Keep the container on your own driveway or lot, and call Topsham Public Works or the Town Office (207-725-5821) before a box goes in a Town street. Posted-road limits in spring can also restrict heavy trucks on some Topsham roads, so ask the hauler about access during mud season.

What matters locally

Topsham Solid Waste Facility charges by the yard for demolition debris

The Town's 2026-27 Solid Waste Facility brochure (pricing as of July 1, 2025) lists demolition debris at $80 per yard for mixed sheetrock, shingles and similar material and $40 per yard for bulky demo such as demolition wood and vinyl siding. Inert fill (stone, masonry, brick, concrete, porcelain, glass) is $2.00 for loads over 2 yards, non-compacted bulk is $30.00, and bulk by weight is $210.00 per ton. Commercial haulers pay $6 (one coupon) per yard of brush. The facility is open to Topsham residents only, takes credit and debit cards but not cash or checks, and is open Tuesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (closed Sunday and Monday). For a small renovation, a few trailer loads here can cost less than a 10-yard rental; for a full gut job, compare the per-yard charges against a roll-off quote.

Bags and coupons for household trash, furniture, mattresses and tires

Household trash goes in clear Topsham bags, $2.00 for 33 gallons and $1.00 for 15 gallons, sold at the Municipal Building (100 Main Street) and in 10-bag bundles at Topsham Hannaford, Market Basket and Rusty's Market. Bulky items use $6 coupons from the Town Clerk: a sofa is $6, a large sofa or sofa bed $6 to $12, a mattress or box spring $3 to $6, carpet $12 per 12-by-10-foot room, and a refrigerator two coupons. Car and truck tires are $4 ($8 on the rim). Paint, rechargeable and lithium-ion batteries and fluorescent bulbs are accepted for recycling, and the Town holds household hazardous waste days twice a year. Mattresses, tires, Freon appliances and paint are items many roll-off companies refuse or surcharge, so the facility can be the simpler route for them.

Before you book

Questions about renting in Topsham.

Does the Town of Topsham pick up trash or rent dumpsters?

No. We found no Town curbside trash service or Town roll-off rental. Topsham runs a Solid Waste Facility on Townsend Way for waste generated in Topsham only, with clear pay-as-you-throw bags, coupons for bulky items and per-yard fees for demolition debris. Chapter 179 of the Town Code makes each resident or business responsible for disposing of its own waste, either through a permitted commercial hauler or at the Town facility, and requires haulers and contractors who bring loads to the facility to hold a Town facility permit.

Do I need a permit to put a dumpster on a street in Topsham?

Topsham does not say. The Public Works permits page lists a Street Opening Permit ($100 application fee, 30-day term) under Chapter 184, Right-Of-Ways, but the form covers excavating in the right-of-way and never mentions dumpsters or obstructions. Call Public Works through the Town Office (207-725-5821) before booking street placement.
