Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Virginia Beach.

In Virginia Beach, the zoning clock can decide a rental before the price does: one roll-off per residential lot for a total of 30 days in six months, unless an active building permit covers the work. The City does not collect building materials, and its own rental container is limited to homeowner yard debris, so a cleanout or remodel usually needs a private roll-off. No City street-placement permit was found, so plan for driveway placement.

The first decision in Virginia Beach

Match the terms to your project.

Only Bin There Dump That publishes prices ($399–$499 for 6 to 20 yards, typically 7 days, plus possible mileage fees), but it does not publish included tonnage. United Disposal publishes included tonnage (2 tons for 15 and 20 yards, up to 4 tons for 40 yards) but no prices. WM is quote-only and its page lists conflicting 20-yard dimensions. The bins also differ in footprint: Bin There's are 10–11 ft long, while United Disposal's 20-yard and larger boxes are 22 ft.

Your local checklist
  1. Count your roll-off days: without an active building permit, a residential lot may have one roll-off for 30 days total in any six months.
  2. Measure the driveway against the box length (10–11 ft for Bin There, 22 ft for United Disposal's 20-yard and larger) because no street-placement permit was found.
  3. Get included tons from Bin There and a price and rental length from United Disposal in writing so the two quotes cover the same terms.

Driveway roll-offs: one container, 30 days per six months

Zoning Ordinance Sec. 208.1 (Ordinance 3843, adopted April 21, 2026) allows one roll-off container in residential districts for a total of 30 days in any consecutive six-month period. During permitted construction, reconstruction, alteration or renovation, a roll-off may stay for the life of the active building permit plus 24 hours before and after. Containers must also comply with City Code Chapter 31; violations carry a $100 civil penalty, then $250. The City Code has no permit for placing a dumpster in a street or on a sidewalk. City Code Sec. 33-3 bars placing boxes and similar objects on streets and sidewalks except where the Code allows it. Keep the container on the driveway or lot, and ask the City (VB311, 757-385-3111) before any street placement.

Construction debris goes to a separate C&D landfill

For construction and demolition debris, the City's alternative-disposal page points to the Hampton Roads Recovery Center landfill beside the City landfill. It serves businesses, construction companies and residents who have materials the City cannot take. Ask your roll-off supplier where the load will be disposed of if you are comparing a self-haul.

Questions about renting in Virginia Beach.

How long can a dumpster stay at a Virginia Beach house?

Can I use the City's rental container instead of a private dumpster?

Only for yard debris. Public Works rents a 13 x 7 x 5 ft container to homeowners at occupied dwellings for $50 on weekdays or $150 Friday to Monday. It takes limbs under 6 inches, leaves, shrubbery and grass trimmings, and excludes building materials, bulky items, concrete, dirt and stumps. Contractors may not use it. City Code Sec. 31-8 says the City does not collect or haul building and construction materials from private property, so remodel debris needs a private hauler.
