Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Union Mill.

Union Mill is mostly owner-occupied single-family homes spread over about 10 square miles, so many projects can put a bin on a private driveway and avoid the road entirely. That makes the choice mainly about bin length and rental time: a short 10- or 11-ft bin for a tight or sloped driveway, or a 22-ft box when there is room and the job runs past a week. Brush, soil and a few bulky items can be cheaper to haul to the County's I-66 Transfer Station yourself.

The first decision in Union Mill

Start with an eligible hauler.

Neither supplier publishes a price. Bin There Dump That's Northern Virginia franchise, based in Manassas, names Union Mill on its Centreville page and rents five small bins from 4 to 20 yards, none longer than 11 ft, on a typical 7-day rental. Selective Hauling, based in Gaithersburg, MD, rents only 22-ft 20- and 30-yard boxes but allows 20 days before rental fees and caps loads at 10 tons. Pick by driveway length and how long the job will run.

Your local checklist

Measure the driveway and turning room before choosing a size: Union Mill's long, often wooded driveways can take a 22-ft box only if a roll-off truck can reach the spot and back out, so check overhead branches and soft ground and ask about protective boards.
Confirm your address is outside the incorporated Town of Clifton (a Clifton mailing address alone does not tell you); inside the Town, ask Town Hall about its rules, and anywhere a bin would sit on a road shoulder, call VDOT's Fairfax permits office about a single use permit first.
Ask the rental company for its Fairfax County solid waste permit, and plan where brush, soil and hazardous items will go: brush and dirt have their own County drop-off rates, and paint or chemicals go to the I-66 household hazardous waste area, not the open-top bin.

Long driveways are the easy case; road shoulders go through VDOT

Union Mill has no town office that issues dumpster permits, and no Fairfax County permit specific to a dumpster on a public road was found. The roads that serve most Union Mill homes are state-maintained, and VDOT's land use permit regulations allow trash receptacles on non-limited-access highways only under a single use permit (24VAC30-151-640), sited as near the right-of-way line as possible and with adjacent owners' written permission; the application fee is $100 (24VAC30-151-710). The regulation does not name temporary roll-offs, so contact VDOT's Fairfax/Arlington land use permits office (4975 Alliance Drive, Fairfax; 703-259-1773; applications through VDOT's online permit system) before any bin goes on a road shoulder. On private land, the Zoning Ordinance has no dumpster or roll-off text. Its nearest analogue is the portable storage container rule (§ 4102.8.H), which allows 30 consecutive days per six months on detached-home lots of 36,000 sq ft or less and 60 days on larger lots, caps height at 8.5 ft and bars containers from streets, sidewalks and trails; the County describes those containers as enclosed boxes for household goods, and whether it applies to an open-top debris roll-off was not confirmed. Homes inside the incorporated Town of Clifton fall under Town rules as well, which were not researched for this guide.

What matters locally

Brush, yard waste and dirt: what the County charges at its drop-offs (July 2026 to June 2027)

Wooded, large-lot properties often generate brush and soil rather than household junk. Fairfax County residents can take brush to the I-66 Transfer Station or the I-95 Landfill Complex at $59 a ton ($39 minimum), or $20 for a mini-pickup load and $28 for a full-size pickup without a rack. Leaves and grass (no plastic bags) are $96 a ton or $20 for 1 to 5 bags. Brick, concrete, dirt and rock are $109 a ton with a $49 minimum and are capped at 2 cubic yards per household per day, toilets, sinks and tubs included. Ordinary trash is $98 a ton ($39 minimum) or $21 for 1 to 5 bags. Bring proof of County residency, such as a driver's license or utility bill.

I-66 Transfer Station on West Ox Road takes what the roll-off should not

The I-66 Transfer Station at 4618 West Ox Road, Fairfax, accepts household hazardous waste (paint, pesticides, herbicides, mercury items) and electronics such as TVs and computers; that area is closed Wednesdays and opens at noon on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The site also recycles metals, motor oil, antifreeze, car batteries and cooking oil, takes bicycles for donation and gives residents free double-shredded mulch. Large items such as sofas, mattresses and carpet are $17 each, refrigerant appliances $15 and passenger tires $14, so a few bulky pieces may cost less to drop off than a bin.

County Code: open roll-offs are for debris, not bagged garbage

Fairfax County Code § 109.1-5-6 governs refuse containers, roll-offs included. A container holding refuse must have a tight-fitting lid kept closed, and open-top containers may not be used to collect, store or haul refuse or putrescible waste; roll-offs must carry reflectors, and containers of 2 cubic yards or more must be marked with the owner's name, phone number and accepted materials. Treat a rented open-top bin as a home for remodeling, cleanout and yard debris only.

Questions about renting in Union Mill.

Union Mill is not a town, so whose rules apply to my dumpster?

Fairfax County's. Union Mill is a census-designated place with no local government, so County Code covers the haulers (a County business license and solid waste permit are required to collect waste) and the containers (open-top bins are for debris, not bagged garbage), while VDOT controls anything placed in the right-of-way of state-maintained roads. The exception is property inside the separately incorporated Town of Clifton, which has its own council and rules.

How long can a container stay in my yard on a large Union Mill lot?

Fairfax County's Zoning Ordinance has no rule written for dumpsters or roll-offs. Its closest rule, for portable storage containers, allows 60 consecutive days per six months on detached-home lots larger than 36,000 sq ft (30 days on smaller lots) and keeps containers off streets, sidewalks and trails. The County describes those containers as enclosed boxes for household goods, so it is not confirmed that the limit applies to an open-top debris bin; if a project will run long, ask the County zoning office. Rental time is a separate question: Bin There Dump That quotes a typical 7 days and Selective Hauling allows 20 days before rental fees.
