Denton dumpster rental FAQ

Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Denton, TX?

Not on your own driveway. Denton doesn't publish a rule specifically for dumpsters on the street, so before placing one on a street or sidewalk, ask Denton Right of Way Permitting at (940) 349-7227 whether a right-of-way permit is needed. Cities that publish a rule generally require one. HOA rules may also apply.

How much does a dumpster rental cost in Denton?

Estimated 2026 prices in Denton run about $530 for a 10-yard to $820 for a 40-yard for a 7-day rental with base weight included. Your hauler sets the final price.

Where does trash from Denton dumpsters go?

Much of the mixed debris from Denton goes to Denton Municipal Landfill, 1527 S. Mayhill Rd., Denton, TX 76208, operated by City of Denton Solid Waste. Haulers may route loads through transfer stations or recycling facilities first.

What can't I put in a dumpster in Denton?

Most haulers bar hazardous waste, liquid paint and solvents, tires, batteries, appliances with refrigerant, asbestos, medical waste, and liquids, and many also bar electronics.

How long can I keep a rental dumpster in Denton?

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.
