Three steps, start to finish

1

Schedule it

Call (515) 436-5101 or tap any button on this page. Let us know the project and the date — we lock in the size and placement while you're still on the line.

2

We drop it off

We place the container right where you need it, boards underneath, door facing the direction you specify. You don't have to be there.

3

We pick it up

Call or text once you've finished loading. We come get it and haul everything away, typically the next business day.

Six reasons Ames trusts us

Correct size on the first try

Describe your project and we'll recommend the right container, including when a smaller one will handle it.

A full week included

Every rental gives you seven days on site, and scheduling pickup takes one text message.

Family-run, never a middleman

You speak directly with the people who own the equipment — not a booking desk in another state.

One phone call handles everything

Give us the project and the date. We nail down the size and the drop location before you hang up.

Fully licensed and insured

Covered for both residential and commercial jobs throughout IA. Certificate available on request.

Same-day drops for early orders

Call before 1pm and we can typically have a container on your driveway that same afternoon.

What you can load in the container

Not sure about a particular item? Check with us before tossing it in — that prevents a rejected haul.

Allowed

General household clutter and furniture
Renovation and demolition debris
Asphalt and composition shingles
Framing lumber, plywood and trim boards
Sheetrock, drywall and plaster
Carpet, underlayment and finished flooring
Kitchen cabinets and countertop material
Deck boards and fence sections
Freon-free appliances
Cardboard, clothing and toys

Prohibited — never load these

Paints, stains and chemical solvents
Used motor oil, gasoline and diesel fuel
Pressurized propane cylinders
Automotive and truck tires
Any type of battery
Refrigerators and AC units containing freon
Asbestos or questionable insulation material
Medical or biohazardous waste
Railroad ties and creosote-treated lumber
Herbicides, pesticides and pool treatment chemicals
Note: yard waste, soil, concrete and masonry are too heavy for a mixed load and require a dedicated heavy-debris container — Call (515) 436-5101 and we'll bring the right one.
The truck that pulls into your driveway belongs to us — and so does the number you call.

Family-run, never a middleman

Leonardo Granados has spent 15 years hauling debris across the Ames area — first driving for another company, now running their own. When you dial (515) 436-5101, you reach the family that owns the containers, plans every route and picks up the phone on Saturday mornings.

A lot of dumpster sites are brokers who hand your job off to whoever is available. We are the crew that actually shows up.

Hear it from our customers

“Sent them a text on a Thursday night and the container was picked up Friday afternoon. Simplest part of the entire renovation.”
Sam K. · Whole-home cleanout
“The driver checked the placement with me before dropping the container and positioned the door right where I needed it for loading with the wheelbarrow.”
Teresa W. · Deck removal
“Hired them for a roof tear-off and again for a cleanout the following month. Same team both times, same person answering the phone who actually remembers the job.”
Angela P. · Roof tear-off

Common questions, direct answers

Is same-day dumpster delivery available?
In most cases, yes — place your order before 1pm on a weekday and we'll fit you into that afternoon's route. Orders after 1pm go out on the first run the following morning.
Which materials are allowed in the dumpster?
General household items, furniture, renovation debris, shingles, decking, flooring and drywall. No paint, fuel, tires, batteries or freon-containing appliances. Yard waste, soil and concrete go in a separate heavy-debris container.
How many days can I keep the container?
Every size comes with a seven-day window. Need more time? Just call or text before your scheduled pickup and we'll extend the date.
Which size do most homeowners go with?
The 20 yard. It covers a kitchen renovation or a full-home cleanout, and it's the container we drop off most often in Ames. If your project calls for less space, we'll let you know and bring the 10 or 15 instead.
Does Ames require a permit for a dumpster?
Not when it sits on a private driveway. If the container needs to go on a public street, Ames requires a right-of-way permit — we'll point you to the right office.
