Virginia / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Woodlawn.

Woodlawn sits between Fort Belvoir and Little Hunting Creek with no town hall, so Fairfax County and VDOT set the rules and an Alexandria address changes nothing. Owners of detached homes south of Route 1 usually have room for any bin offered; townhouse owners should check with the association and pick a short bin. For a few bags or one sofa, the County's I-95 site in Lorton is a short drive down Route 1.

The first decision in Woodlawn

Start with an eligible hauler.

Neither supplier publishes a price. Bin There Dump That offers five small-to-mid bins from 4 to 20 yards, none longer than 11 ft, on a typical 7-day rental, and has a Mount Vernon page plus an Alexandria office. Selective Hauling rents only 22-ft, 20- and 30-yard boxes but allows 20 days before rental fees and states a 10-ton cap; it works out of Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is in Fairfax County and not on Fort Belvoir or in the City of Alexandria; a 22309 Alexandria mailing address in Woodlawn means County and VDOT rules, not City permits.
Keep the bin off Richmond Highway and its service drives; if it must go on a public neighbourhood street, ask VDOT's Fairfax land use permit office about a single use permit first, and in a townhouse or apartment community get the association's or manager's written okay for its parking area.
Ask the rental company for its Fairfax County solid waste permit, and keep food scraps and bagged kitchen trash out of an open-top roll-off, since County Code § 109.1-5-6 bars refuse in open-top containers.

Your driveway, an HOA lot or a VDOT street: who decides in Woodlawn

Woodlawn has no local permit office, and no Fairfax County permit specific to a dumpster on a public street was found. Most public residential streets in Fairfax County are state roads, and Route 1 itself is a VDOT highway. VDOT's land use permit regulations allow trash receptacles on non-limited-access highways only under a single use permit (24VAC30-151-640), placed as near the right-of-way line as practical and with written permission from the adjacent property owners; the application fee is $100 (24VAC30-151-710). The rule does not name temporary roll-offs, so ask VDOT's Fairfax/Arlington land use permit office (NOVAFairfaxPermits@VDOT.Virginia.gov; NOVA District Office, 4975 Alliance Drive, Fairfax) before setting a bin on any public street, and never on Richmond Highway. Townhouse and apartment communities along the corridor usually own their parking areas, so their association or manager decides there. On the lot, the nearest County rule is Zoning Ordinance § 4102.8.H for portable storage containers (30 consecutive days per six months on detached-home lots of 36,000 sq ft or less, 7 days for townhouses, not on streets or sidewalks). The Zoning Ordinance has no dumpster or roll-off text, so whether that limit reaches an open-top debris roll-off is not confirmed; ask the County zoning office if your rental will be long. Fort Belvoir housing follows Army rules, not these.

Closest County drop-off: the I-95 Landfill Complex on Furnace Road in Lorton

Trash, recycling and food scraps are accepted 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekends; household hazardous waste such as oil-based paint and pesticides, and electronics such as TVs and computers, are taken only on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

What a self-haul costs at County facilities (July 2026 to June 2027)

The County charges residents the same fees at its I-95 and I-66 sites. Loose trash is weighed at $98 a ton with a $39 minimum; bagged trash is a flat $21 for 1 to 5 standard 32-gallon bags or $28 for 6 to 10. Brick, concrete, dirt, rock and old toilets, sinks or tubs cost $109 a ton ($49 minimum), limited to 2 cubic yards per household per day. Mattresses, sofas, carpet and other large items are $17 each, refrigerant appliances $15, and passenger tires $14. You must return to the scale for an empty weight.

An open roll-off holds debris, not household garbage

Fairfax County Code § 109.1-5-6 covers every refuse container, roll-offs included. Containers used for refuse must have tight-fitting lids kept closed, and open-top containers may not be used to collect, store or haul refuse or putrescible items; roll-offs also need reflectors, and larger containers must carry the owner's name, phone number and accepted materials. Load a rented open-top bin with renovation and cleanout debris, and keep food waste and bagged kitchen trash in your regular service.

Questions about renting in Woodlawn.

My mail says Alexandria. Do I need a City of Alexandria dumpster permit in Woodlawn?

No. Woodlawn uses Alexandria 22309 mailing addresses, but it is an unincorporated part of Fairfax County, outside the City of Alexandria. City permits and fees do not apply. On your own lot the County's rules govern, and on a public street, which is usually a state road here, VDOT's land use permit rules apply: trash receptacles need a single use permit with a $100 application fee and written permission from adjacent owners.

Can I take renovation rubble to the Lorton landfill site instead of renting a bin?

Yes, within limits. Fairfax County residents can bring brick, concrete, dirt, rock and old fixtures such as toilets and tubs to County facilities at $109 a ton with a $49 minimum, but only up to 2 cubic yards per household per day. The I-95 Landfill Complex at 9850 Furnace Road, Lorton, is the County site nearest Woodlawn; bring proof of County residency. A larger tear-out is usually easier in a rented roll-off.
