Roll Off Dumpster Tips for Ellsworth, ME

What items can I not put in my dumpster rental?

This will vary based on rules and regulations in your city or state.

However, the most common wastes prohibited from being disposed of in dumpsters are:

  • Scrap tires (some companies allowed tires that are shredded into small chunks)
  • Household hazardous wastes, such as cleaners and paint
  • Asbestos-containing debris
  • Electronics (e-waste), such as computers and TVs

Take these prohibited items to local household hazardous waste (HHW) processing facilities or drop them off during your area's HHW collection event (typically an annually or biannually event).

E-wastes can be recycled at most major electronics stores, including Best Buy and Staples.

Locate a scrap tire yard in your area to dispose of used tires, or take them to a tire store for proper recycling.
