You get access to container sizes from 6 to 30 yards, covering everything from small home cleanouts to major commercial construction projects. Each container comes with clear weight limits and usage guidelines upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Riverhead’s unique mix of residential neighborhoods, agricultural properties, and growing commercial districts means waste disposal needs vary significantly. Local contractors know they can count on reliable delivery schedules that keep job sites moving. Homeowners appreciate the straightforward pricing and professional service that doesn’t require them to become waste management experts.
The service includes both delivery and pickup, plus proper disposal at licensed facilities. For commercial clients, we provide documentation for projects requiring waste tracking or LEED certification.
The right size depends on your specific project scope and debris type. A 10-yard container works well for bathroom renovations, small kitchen remodels, or garage cleanouts – it holds roughly 3-4 pickup truck loads. For larger kitchen renovations, roofing projects, or whole-room additions, a 20-yard container is typically the sweet spot.
If you’re doing major construction, demolition, or multiple rooms at once, you’ll likely need a 30-yard container. The key is matching container size to your timeline too – a smaller container with multiple pickups might make more sense than one large container sitting for weeks. Our team walks through your project details to recommend the most cost-effective approach.
Most deliveries in Riverhead, NY happen within 24-48 hours of your call, often same-day if you contact us before noon. We maintain local inventory specifically to serve Suffolk County customers without delays.
Delivery timing can be affected by your specific location access, permit requirements if you need street placement, and seasonal demand fluctuations. Spring and summer see higher demand as construction and renovation projects ramp up. We’ll give you a realistic timeline when you call and work around your project schedule. If you have a specific start date for your project, calling a few days ahead ensures the container arrives exactly when you need it.
Most household debris, construction materials, furniture, appliances, and yard waste are acceptable. This includes drywall, lumber, flooring, shingles, concrete, dirt, and general household cleanout items. Old appliances like refrigerators and washing machines are typically fine, though some may have small additional fees for proper disposal.
You cannot put hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, batteries, tires, or medical waste in containers. These items require special disposal methods for safety and environmental reasons. Riverhead has specific drop-off locations for electronics and hazardous household waste. If you’re unsure about specific items, our team can clarify what’s acceptable before delivery. We’d rather answer questions upfront than deal with pickup delays later.
If the container goes on your private property – driveway, yard, or parking area you own – no permit is required. Most residential customers can place containers on their driveways without any paperwork or additional fees.
However, if you need the container on the street, sidewalk, or any public right-of-way, Riverhead requires a permit from the town. This typically happens when driveways are too narrow, blocked by cars, or when contractors need street access for larger projects. The permit process usually takes a few days and involves a small fee paid directly to the town. We can guide you through the permit requirements and help determine if your planned placement needs town approval.
Standard rental periods typically run 7-10 days, which covers most home renovation and cleanout projects. This gives you time to work at your own pace without feeling rushed to fill the container immediately.
If your project runs longer, extensions are available for a daily rate. Many customers find they need extra time for larger renovations or when coordinating with contractors who work around weather delays. Commercial projects often require longer rental periods or multiple containers delivered in sequence. We work with your actual project timeline rather than forcing arbitrary pickup dates. Just call when you’re ready for pickup or need to extend the rental period.
Pricing depends on container size, rental duration, debris type, and your specific location in Riverhead. A 10-yard container for general household debris typically costs less than a 30-yard container for heavy construction materials like concrete or dirt.
We provide upfront, transparent pricing when you call – no hidden fees or surprise charges when we pick up the container. The quoted price includes delivery, pickup, disposal fees, and the rental period. Heavy debris like concrete or dirt may have different pricing than lighter materials due to disposal costs and weight limits. Additional days beyond the standard rental period have a clear daily rate. Getting an exact quote takes just a few minutes over the phone once we understand your project specifics.
