Maryland / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Travilah.

Travilah has no local government, so Montgomery County rules apply unless your lot is inside the City of Rockville. On most Travilah lots the easy answer is the driveway: the County requires no permit for a dumpster on private property. A bin in a County road needs a DPS right-of-way permit, and River Road (MD 190) frontage needs the State's. Since November 2, 2026 the County transfer station refuses roll-off construction loads, so your hauler decides where the debris goes.

The first decision in Travilah

Start with an eligible hauler.

Action Dumpsters is the only one of the three that publishes prices: $449 to $649 for 10 to 30 yards, 12 days, 1 to 3 tons included and $125 per extra ton. Selective Hauling gives the longest free period (20 days) but rents only 20- and 30-yard boxes and publishes no prices. EAI Roll Off publishes dimensions only (boxes 14 to 23 ft long). None of the three names Travilah itself: Action and Selective name Potomac, and EAI names Montgomery County.

Your local checklist
  1. Confirm that your address is in unincorporated Montgomery County and not inside the City of Rockville, which borders Travilah's northeast side and has its own rules, by checking your County property record.
  2. If you are on River Road (MD 190), keep the bin on your own property; placing it on the State shoulder needs a permit from SHA District 3, and a bin on any County road needs a DPS right-of-way permit ($267.40 in FY2027, plus a bond).
  3. On a long or steep Travilah driveway, measure the drop spot and overhead clearance before choosing a size, and ask the hauler for its Montgomery County collector license and where it will take your debris.

Gaithersburg roll-off company at 17070 Railroad St, Gaithersburg, MD 20877, phone 301-929-1111; its home page says it has served Montgomery County since 1980.

Travilah dumpster: no County permit on your own lot; a bin in a County road needs a DPS right-of-way permit ($267.40, valid 6 months); River Road (MD 190) frontage goes to SHA

Montgomery County's Department of Permitting Services says no permit is required for a dumpster on private property. A dumpster in a County public right-of-way needs a DPS permit: submit plans showing the container and its warning devices, post a refundable bond, and keep within the permit's six-month validity; the FY2027 fee schedule lists $267.40 for special use and roadway occupancy, which includes dumpsters. River Road (MD 190) is a State highway, so a bin on its shoulder or right-of-way needs a permit from the Maryland State Highway Administration (District 3), and a lot inside the City of Rockville falls under the City's rules instead. County Zoning § 59-3.1.4 allows one construction dumpster on site without a temporary use permit while a valid building permit is in force and bars keeping it after the permit expires; it does not expressly cover a cleanout bin with no building permit, so check with DPS before a long cleanout. Get any HOA approval separately.

What matters locally

Shady Grove Transfer Station stopped taking roll-off C&D loads on November 2, 2026

The County drop-off for western Montgomery County is the Shady Grove Processing Facility and Transfer Station (resident entrance 16101 Frederick Road, Derwood; Monday to Saturday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Under the County's construction and demolition policy, from November 2, 2026 it no longer accepts C&D brought in open-top containers, roll-offs, box trucks or vehicles with two or more axles, so a Travilah roll-off goes to a private disposal or recycling site chosen by the hauler. Residents hand-unloading a pickup or small trailer can still use it: trash is free under 500 lb and $70 a ton above, C&D $105 a ton, and concrete, dirt or rubble $75 a ton. Ask your roll-off company where your debris will go and whether that affects the price.

Bulk pickup only for homes on County trash collection

Montgomery County schedules up to five bulk trash pickups per calendar year for homes that receive County-provided trash collection. Homes on private or HOA-contracted trash service are not eligible and need to ask their own hauler. If your Travilah home is on County collection and you only have a few large items, a scheduled bulk pickup may be cheaper than a dumpster.

Questions about renting in Travilah.

Does my Travilah address follow Montgomery County rules or a town's?

Usually the County's. Travilah is an unincorporated census-designated place with no town government, and most homes have a Potomac (20854) mailing address even though Potomac is not a town either. The exception is near the northeast edge, which borders the incorporated City of Rockville; a Rockville mailing address does not mean the lot is in the City, so check your County property record. In unincorporated areas, the County's Department of Permitting Services sets dumpster placement rules: no permit on private property, and a right-of-way permit for a bin in a County road.

Sources: [14] · [7]

Can I pick any roll-off company for a Travilah job?

Yes, as long as it holds a Montgomery County license. County Code says only licensed collectors or haulers may collect or transport solid waste, and where the County provides household trash service the code still allows private contracts. DEP's licensing page describes the hauler/collector license ($25, plus $5 per vehicle); ask the company to confirm its license is current.
