Questions You May Have About Our Roll Off Dumpster Rental or Cardboard Recycling Services

  • How Much Material Can I Put Into C.R.I.'S Dumpsters?

    The dumpsters can be filled up to the level fill lines. By law, all materials must be contained within the dumpster, and all loads must be covered with a tarp. The customer is responsible for removing excess material from dumpsters and any fees incurred after pickup.

  • What Is The Weight Limit For C.R.I.'S Dumpsters?

    Our general trash dumpsters have a 4-ton weight limit, with an additional $75 per ton thereafter. Heavy materials cannot exceed the maximum weight of 10 tons and may only be placed in the 10-yard dumpster. Heavy materials include, but are not limited to, concrete, dirt, rock, gravel, and sand. Customers are responsible for any D.O.T. penalties or fines due to overloading.

  • How Do I Know If I Have Filled the Dumpster Too Much?

    If you fill the 10-yard dumpster to the fill line with heavy materials such as dirt, rock, brick, concrete, or block, it will weigh approximately 4 tons. If you fill our other dumpsters with general trash only, they should not exceed the permitted 4-ton maximum. However, adding even a small amount of heavy materials to these dumpsters may cause them to become overweight, incurring additional fees.
