Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Towson.

Towson is run by Baltimore County, not a town hall, so the questions are whether County Zoning Review wants a use permit for your bin and whether your street is a County road or a state route like York Road. Rodgers Forge and other group-home blocks usually have room only for a short bin on a rear pad; detached homes in Stoneleigh or West Towson can often take a 15- to 20-yard box. For a few loads of debris, the County drop-off in Cockeysville may cost less.

The first decision in Towson

Start with an eligible hauler.

Bin There Dump That and Roger That publish prices: Bin There's 4- to 20-yard bins start at $430 to $575 for 10 days, all 11 ft long or less, with a $32-per-quarter-ton overweight charge; Roger That's 15- to 30-yard boxes start at $425 to $595 for 14 days with 1.5 to 3 tons included but are 16 to 20 ft long. Eagle Transfer Services (Finksburg) and Waste Connections publish no prices; Waste Connections is the only one that says it helps with the County street permit.

Your local checklist
  1. Before delivery, file Baltimore County's $100 Dumpster Use Permit with a site plan showing the bin on your driveway or yard (never the roadway); it allows 30 days, or the life of an active building permit.
  2. In Rodgers Forge or another group-home block with a rear alley, measure your parking pad and pick a bin short enough to stay inside your lot line without narrowing the shared alley; let your attached neighbors know the delivery date.
  3. Ask the rental company whether it holds a current Baltimore County solid-waste collection-vehicle permit, and keep food scraps and bagged household garbage out of the open bin, since County Code requires lidded containers for garbage.

Towson dumpster on the driveway: Baltimore County Use Permit, $100, 30 days; never in the roadway

Baltimore County's Zoning Review office says a Use Permit is required for the temporary placement of a dumpster, and its application covers only a dumpster on the property itself: placement in the roadway is not permitted. You (or the rental company) file the one-page Dumpster Use Permit Application with a site plan showing where the bin will sit so it does not interfere with traffic, sight lines, safety or the neighbouring property, plus the $100 fee. With an active building permit the bin may stay for the life of that permit; without one it may stay 30 days. The County also limits what goes in it: only material from that Towson property, no household garbage or food, and the bin must not overflow. Questions go to Zoning Review, 111 West Chesapeake Avenue, Room 124, Towson (410-887-3391, paizoning@baltimorecountymd.gov).

What matters locally

Hauling it yourself: the Central Acceptance Facility

The closest Baltimore County drop-off for Towson is the Central Acceptance Facility at 201 West Warren Road, Cockeysville, open Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. (County line 410-887-2000). County residents may drop off household trash and recyclables free for up to 10 visits a year; after that, loads go to the Eastern Sanitary Landfill at a prorated $125 a ton. Commercial haulers need a County account.

Food scraps and bagged household garbage stay out of an open roll-off

Baltimore County Code § 13-4-201 requires all solid waste to be kept in approved receptacles and putrescible garbage to be kept in watertight, rodent-resistant containers with tight-fitting lids. An open-top roll-off parked in a Towson driveway is therefore for remodeling, roofing and cleanout debris; kitchen waste and bagged household trash belong in your regular County collection.

Furniture and appliances: two free County bulk pickups a year

Single-family homes and town homes in Towson get two scheduled County bulk collections a year, up to three items each, with no call needed: set items out after 6 p.m. the night before. Appliances, furniture, mattresses, electronics and some fixtures such as sinks, toilets, bathtubs and rolled carpet are accepted; nothing longer than 8 ft. The same bulk items can also go to any County drop-off facility free.

Questions about renting in Towson.

Does Towson have its own dumpster permit, or do I go to Baltimore County or the state?

Yes, on your own property, and no on the street. Baltimore County requires a $100 Dumpster Use Permit, filed with a site plan, for the temporary placement of a dumpster at a Towson home; the permit is only for a bin on the lot, because placement in the roadway is not permitted. It runs 30 days, or as long as an active building permit, and the bin may hold only material from that property, with no garbage or food.

Can any roll-off company serve a Towson home, or does the County pick the hauler?

You choose the company. Baltimore County Code requires anyone operating a solid waste collection vehicle to hold a permit from the Department of Permits, Approvals and Inspections, renewed every December 31, with exceptions for residents hauling their own waste and home-improvement contractors. The County collects household trash itself or by contract, but no exclusive franchise covering roll-offs was found. Ask your supplier whether its permit is current.
