In Boerne, you don't need a permit for a dumpster on your own driveway. The city doesn't publish a rule specifically for dumpsters on the street, so before placing one on a street, sidewalk, or other right-of-way, ask Boerne Engineering & Mobility ((830) 249-9511) whether a right-of-way permit is needed. Cities that publish a rule generally require one.
A driveway or private lot avoids the city permit in Boerne. If the only spot is the street, measure: a 20-yard needs about 25 feet of curb length and 10 feet of width.
Call (830) 249-9511 or use the city's website to request a right-of-way or encroachment permit. Ask for the current fee, which usually runs $50 single-family / $200 other.
Expect to give the address, the container size, the delivery and pickup dates, the hauler’s name, and sometimes a placement sketch or proof of the hauler’s insurance.
Plan on a few business days. Book the delivery for after the permit is issued, and keep a copy on site.
Many Boerne neighborhoods with HOAs limit how long a container can sit, even on a driveway. The city permit doesn't override HOA rules.
Not on your own driveway.

Many haulers include about a week in the base price and charge a daily fee after that, so ask for the extra-day rate when you compare quotes. If the dumpster is on the street under a permit, the permit's end date is the limit.
