Heavy Material / Clean Fill Dumpsters (Concrete, Brick, Dirt, Asphalt)
Important:
Concrete, dirt, rock, brick, and asphalt are extremely heavy. These loads are handled differently.
What You Need to Know:
- We may limit these to partial fills (for safety and legal road weight)
- You cannot mix trash with clean fill
- Overweight dumpsters may create extra charges
