On Your Own Property: No
Driveway, yard, or job site you control: no permit, no paperwork, in every town on our route. The driver agrees the spot with you on the phone before he loads, and driveway protection is available if you want it. This covers nearly every residential rental we run.
On the Street: Ask the Town First
A dumpster on a public street or right-of-way is where permits come up, and every town runs it differently. Some want a form and a small fee, some want cones or reflectors on the dumpster, some just want a phone call. We are not going to print a fee table here that goes stale and misleads you. Call the town hall or public works office for the address where the dumpster will sit. Do it before delivery day, not after.
The Better Answer Is Usually Placement
Most street placements we get asked about turn out to be avoidable. A short driveway fits the Space Saver. A tight lot has a corner the driver can work with. Describe the space when you call 864-881-DUMP and the placement conversation is free.
