Tuesday afternoon we were in a bind after 1-800-Got-Junk flaked on us so we looked up "dumpster rental near me" on Google. This company was the first that popped up so we called them. The lady we spoke with was super helpful and very friendly. She answered all of our questions and we scheduled a drop off for the next day and pick up Friday. The next morning I decided to look at the company's reviews and found there was mainly 1 star reviews, and most were due to drop off and pick up issues. My heart sank, as I started to worry we may have been scammed and began to consider calling to cancel the order. Not 5 minutes later the dumpster was being dropped off in the location requested. We got everything loaded into the dumpster and called the company to let them know they could pick it up before Friday if they wanted, as we had finished the job we needed it for. Thursday morning the same guy that dropped it off came and picked up the dumpster. They could not have made the process any easier, and I definitely would recommend them to a friend. read more

Middleman company masquerading as a dumpster rental service If I can save even one person from this experience, this review is worth writing. This company presents itself as a dumpster rental operation. It is not. They are a broker -- they take your money, hand your job off to a local contractor, and then become completely useless the moment anything goes sideways. And in my case, things went very sideways. The container that showed up was a trailer. Not a dumpster. A trailer -- with a bed sitting three feet off the ground. I had heavy material to move, and now instead of rolling it into a ground-level dumpster like a normal human being, I was expected to hoist everything up over a trailer wall. Not what I agreed to. Not what I paid for. I called customer service and spoke to a rep named Kevin. First he told me the company exclusively rents roll-off dumpsters. Then he got off the phone with the local contractor and came back with a completely different story -- apparently my trailer was actually a 10-yard dumpster. Funny how that works. Escalating was a dead end. Kevin insisted he was the highest authority available. When I pointed out that not owning the company means someone above you exists, it didn't move the needle at all. The options he offered -- a $500 credit or two extra days -- solved exactly none of my actual problem. I needed the right equipment, not a consolation prize. A real discount? Out of the question. And if I sent the trailer back? They'd still pocket $250 for the trip. Skip the middleman entirely. Find a local dumpster company, talk to an actual human being who owns actual equipment, and save yourself all of this. read more

Affordable Dumpster Rentals - Dumpster Rental Near Me

SCAM, do not use this company. Ordered a dumpster from them for a garden clean up. It was mulch only, the rep specified organic material only. I paid over $600 for the dumpster and then a few weeks after it was off site, they charged my card on file $1200 for overage weight. Instead of taking organic material to an organic recycler (which is what we all do in landscaping) and paying $350 for a 20 yard, which was more than covered in my up front costs, they took it to the landfill. This way they get huge weight overages and apply it to the customer to make even more money. I made the mistake of seeing the reviews for Affordable Dumpster Rentals (4 Star) and then calling Affordable Dumpster Rentals.COM (1.5 Star) (not the same company) Looks like every review before me says the exact same thing. Please don't make the same mistake I made. $1200 taken away from a small local company with a family. This company will be out of business soon. But until then, please use a reputable company with clear prices and clear communication. read more

Terrible.... I simply wanted to clear out my basement storage space and garage of some household clutter. I got a 30 yard dumpster from them just to be safe (their largest size). I filled it about halfway with pretty lightweight items (old, broken, plastic kids toys, cheap, lightweight bookshelves, shipping materials like Styrofoam, etc. They told me that as long as I stayed under 3,000 lbs, I would not be charged extra. After the pickup, they sent me an additional invoice for 4,600 lbs total ($132 extra). I disputed it and they sent me a landfill receipt with the weight that said "construction materials". There were no construction materials in the dumpster, just relatively lightweight things with a half full dumpster. They bullied me into paying the extra fee, threatening late fees, collections, etc. I firmly believe that they are predatory and lie to get extra money. Avoid them at all costs! read more

Absolutely terrible. Charged me $735 for a 80% full 30 yard dumpster. Said it was almost 3000 pounds over the limit. On top of paying double that anywhere else charges, it took 6 days to pick up from the day I called. Zero stars if possible! read more

This company is a joke, I do not recommend. Was told our dumpster would be delivered on Friday, never showed up. After numerous calls to the company received a text saying it would be rescheduled for the following day. Finally got a call from someone who said he was a supervisor and when asked if it would definitely be delivered the following day he said he couldn't promise that. When asked to cancel and get a refund he said he had to send a request to cancel it and then wait to send it to billing. Told me he couldn't give me a confirmation number or any kind of information on the cancellation. I wouldn't even give this company 1 star but couldn't post without it. read more

I do not recommend using this company. I will share their pros and cons, but if you need a solid delivery date and a solid quote, save you time and go with another company. I started looking for a dumpster for a project on December 18th. Sent several requests to 10+ companies, and ADR was by far the fastest to respond. I had a phone call response in under 15 minutes from when I sent a quote request in. This is where I praise ADR, their customer-facing staff is excellent. I'll speak to my issue with ADR in a moment, but even during that discussion their customer-facing staff is very professional. I wasn't ready to make a commitment to a company at that point as I wanted to see all my options, but by the end of the day I made my decision and made a deposit that night. ADR was the second lowest price of all my quotes, but it was their staff that sold me. I felt like they really wanted my business, and that's rare today. This is where my praise for ADR ends. On December 19th, I get a call in response to my deposit, and we finalize the delivery date, location, dumpster size, length of rental, etc. Dumpster would be delivered on December 29th and picked up on January 4th. The delivery and pickup would be sometime during the day on those days, but that was ok with my timeline. I needed the dumpster there on the 29th but not having it a full workday was fine as my crew was showing up that day and would have some prep anyway. I paid the agreed amount and waited for December 29th. On the morning of December 29th, I got a phone call from ADR, explaining that delivery would be delayed to December 30th. According to ADR, a truck had mechanical issues, and they would need to send a different one the next day. For me this was a pain, but the contract stated ADR is not liable for lost time on my part. Fair enough, I'm not happy about it, but there is nothing else I can do about it. But immediately after telling me my delivery would be delayed, I'm told I will need to pay an additional "distance fee", roughly a 12% increase in cost from what I had already agreed to and paid. At this point ADR did offer to cancel my contract and full refund with no penalty, but my timeline was the issue. Every company I contacted had a minimum week's lead time, so canceling was not an option. At this point my options were to pay the surprise fee or pay significantly more to send the crew out in a week or two. Delaying was not a good option. ADR got me good, well played. I agreed to the fee and delivery change and explained I would be leaving reviews of the company. The ADR staff on the phone understood, and as I said, was very polite. The last thing to note, I did not get an additional day of rental; the pickup was still scheduled for January 4th. On December 30th, after 3:30 pm I got a text from the crew and a picture of the dumpster in the driveway. Functionally, two days my crew went without the dumpster. So, I received my service late, did not get an increase in service time, and received a 12% increase in price for my trouble. I will need a dumpster again before this project is done, but I will not be contacting ADR. I need the product that I pay for at agreed upon time and the agreed upon amount. read more

Do not rent from these people. You can rent days in advance get no calls no ETA and no dumpster. Avoid them at all costs. If you have to call in you're just gonna get in some round Robin phone circle where nothing gets answered and you get more frustrated. read more

They must be getting worse. I rented a 15 yard dumpster. They were over a week late picking it up. I just put household trash from my mom's old apartment in it. 2 months later I got an unauthorized charge for $2300. They said the trash weighed 23,000 lbs. Now just for reference, my Nissan Pathfinder weighs less than 7,000 lbs but it wouldn't fit into the he space of a 15 yard dumpster. I don't believe 23,000 lbs of household trash could fit into a 15 yard dumpster. It is a scam. There was a news special on this. I used the company when it was Best Way, it I guess that's what they do is ride on another company's reputation Why haven't they been stopped? read more

This company is a scam! I ordered a dumpster, let's start off with they broke the concrete in the driveway when they drop off the dumpster. Mainly wood and boards was put in the dump and they said I went over the weight limit. I was charged an additional $500 dollars, not including the $400 I had to pay for the dumpster. When I inquired and requested to see the paperwork for the weight they emailed me a piece of paper from Miles dumping saying the weight was over 6000lbs, anyone could write that on paper. I want the actual invoice from the company that was submitted the day of the dumping. Not weeks later. Very deceiving and I believe a fraud. I recommend a class action lawsuit against this company. If anyone wants to join in filing a lawsuit I will gladly assist with getting that started. read more

Terrible rented a dumpster to get rid of some dirt a bit of cinder block and it was a small area the area was around 2ft W 7ft L and 4ft H they only gave me 1,250lbs which is fine for the small area but when they took it and in a couple weeks a got a invoice for extra weight they said i thought away 4,960lbs witch is impossible i will upload a picture of the area i took out and will not recommend this company to anyone or if you do have them weigh the dumpster before they take it because this is crazy read more

I called first thing in the morning the dumpster was scheduled for delivery to ask if I could switch from a 15-yard to a larger size. She said if the dumpster was not in route and delivered that day then call back. The dumpster didn't even show up until after 5 PM, (not seeing the reason here why they couldn't change the size since only one dumpster fits in the truck at a time this should have been ample notice to schedule the larger size instead) and when it did, I told the driver it was too small. He called his company, then told me he could take it back and that I should call in the morning to arrange a different size. The next day, when I called, the company told me there would be a $200+ fee for refusing the dumpster. At no point--either during my morning call or when the driver was here--was I informed about any kind of refusal fee. The communication is terrible, and they're quick to charge you without explanation. I would not recommend this company to anyone. Very unprofessional and frustrating experience. I asked to speak to the manager and she said she was the manager and that it is in the contract. They put things in fine print that they do not communicate and that is very unprofessional. read more

Beware if you use affordable dumpster rental . I rented a 30 yard dumpster for a household clean out. Lawn chairs, holiday decoration, pictures few small furniture items etc. we were allowed 3,000 lbs which is 2 1/2 tons. I took pictures of the dumpster number and all 3 side of the can. I know the contract was 130.00 per 1,000 lbs over which I signed. This dumpster was picked up on 9/8 and I'm getting a bill saying I was 5520lbs overweight to the tune of 717.00 !! Almost 2 1/2 tons over. I called for a copy of the weight ticket which they sent to me and no where on that ticket shows the dumpster that we filled. If I was overweight I'm fine with paying the bill but when they can't prove to me that this weight was in the container number I rented, how do I know it was mine !! I was in the trucking business for 26 years picking up and delivering to ports and military bases and we always had container number or equipment numbers to match up with the bol. They said there is nothing they can do about we just have to pay it. Well I'm going to fight it and call turn to 10 and see if they can help me. JUST BEWARE of this company. Their name is affordable from the start but not at the end. I did check their reviews and they were good so I went with them but not everyone is knowledge of what they are being billed for. If they can prove this was my container and I was that much overweight I will retract this statement read more

This appears to be a broker (like AAA is for towing services) who does not know at the time of your call to order a dumpster which company they will actually dispatch. The initial price is attractive, but pay close attention to the weight limit verbiage. Where literally all other companies list weight limit in TONS, these folks list it in POUNDS. ...and they charge $90/1000lbs over that limit. Our rental price DOUBLED with a weight of ~5500 lbs when this would have been completely within the limit of every other dumpster company I've worked with. We rent on average 1 dumpster per month, and I will NEVER order from AffordableDumpsterRental again. read more

Don't waste your time. Rented two dumpsters for construction, no one mentioned the 3,000 pound weight restriction, received my contract address was all incorrect. Got charged for cancelling dumpster delivery a week in advance, attempted to contact customer service what a joke I got sent to voicemail every single time and then receive a text to complete a complaint online. Then they "call you back" but I never received a call only voicemails every time. If you don't want to deal with complete nonsense and horrible customer service save yourself the stress, pay a little more up front, and be a hell of alot happier in the end! read more

DO NOT USE AFFORDABLE DUMPSTER!! THE EMAIL I SENT TO THEM AFTER RECEIVING A BILL ONE MONTH AFTER THE DUMPSTER WAS PICKED UP: Upon the delivery of the dumpster, I specifically asked the driver to assess the load to ensure it would stay within the weight limit. After inspecting my backyard and me highlighting the items intended for disposal, he confidently assured me that everything would be acceptable. Therefore, I was taken aback to discover that the actual weight EXCEEDED the limit by an astonishing 6,560 POUNDS! While I recognize that accurate measurements can be challenging, such a significant difference is simply unacceptable. Had I been aware of this potential substantial overage, I would have excluded most of the rock, which was removed solely as a courtesy for the buyers of our home, who had not requested its removal. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution.  THEIR REPLY: Hello, We will have our billing department send you a copy of the weight ticket from the landfill and reach out to discuss firther. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us. Thank you! Affordable Dumpster Rental, LLC Never received the copy of the weight ticket and my debit charged was charged an extra 590.40$. TOTAL SCAM!! read more

RUN!! DON'T WALK!! THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM!!! They drop off dumpster as late as possible on the due date, and then pick it up, without notice, on the last day. They tell you that if you want it longer, you should get the 30 day permit, even though, they used to have it that you get a 7 day permit for the price of what they are selling the 3 day permit for now. You don't get your full time and they pretty much just say, "ah well!" Then the charge you extra weeks later saying that you were over weight. DON'T USE THIS COMPANY!!!!! They are not worth the headache. read more

I ordered a 15-yard and they were late in delivering this to me as I lost a day - when they finally came by at 630p they did not have the 15 but a 20 because they ran out ( now I ordered a 15 a couple of weeks in advance) but so I filled it up then I get charged 160.00 extra because I went over - I asked for a refund because I don't think this is my fault - you did not have a 15 and as a regular person not working in this field how do I know what is actually 15 I can see 20 but I have no clue - The manager finally called me a couple of days after I left multiple messages for a call back and she just spewed words that I should have known and nothing they can do - horrible service - I will never use them again and I will make sure everyone knows how horrible this service is - I was going to use them again as I have another project but guess my business will be going elsewhere - read more

Don't do business with this company!!! We have already disputed the change with American Express and informed them that this vendor scams people. Their manager lies and are dishonest. We booked a rental two days ago and were told we could make changes the following business day of necessary. I attempted to contact them several times, but no answer! We needed to cancel because the city is doing construction on our street. After sending multiple emails and calls, a manager finally answered at 7:04am the day the dumpster was to be delivered. I told him the issue, but he said there was nothing they could do except charge us $75 cancellation fee. The lying manager then called four hours later and said, the fee will actually be $250 since the truck was already in route. That was a lie!!!! I called at am in the morning after countless phone calls and emails the day before. So now this sham company charged my 90-year-old mother $250 to cancel the dumpster. They have done absolutely nothing!!! We are in town to declutter my mother's house and help her clean. How dare they swindle her out of $250 for doing NOTHING!!! Go to another company because this one is a SCAM!!! (Below is a photo of the construction and the reason we needed to cancel. The street has closures.) read more

never delivered. spoke to 4 people no one knew anything!! don't use them!!!!!! terrible customer serivice and communication

I'm writing this to prevent other consumers from having to deal with lost time and aggravation. Was scheduled for delivery on a Wednesday had to call and confirm the order and was assured the dumpster would be delivered on Wednesday. When I asked for approximate ETA they said typically by noon dumpsters are delivered. Noon came and went, called again at 4:30 to ask for the ETA of when it would be delivered. Was told by a representative they would check and text me the estimated ETA, but that we were still on the schedule to receive delivery that day. 6:00 PM rolled around no text, no dumpster. Tried to call again and the office was closed. We never received the dumpster putting our project a day behind. No one even responded to my phone messages or texts until Friday after I had requested cancellation of service. This was a terrible experience and would not recommend using this company. you should go with Next Day Dumpsters fast and friendly service only $20.00 more for a 15 yd delivered and picked up. read more

I ordered a 40cubic yard dumpster and I the day the dumpster was supposed to be delivered they said sorry but the last return was running late so you should get it the next day. My crew was starting that day and couldn't start per the schedule. Additionally when I got the dumpster they didn't know when the dumpster was supposed to be delivered. The service agent didn't even care about the issues, it was terrible. Also I ended up paying extra for the weight as I was over the allowance. Later I found other companies, charge less than half of what they charged me. Overall don't do business with this place. They don't deliver on what you signed up for and they are rude to deal with. read more

They are a scam!!!

ordered a rental dumpster for the next day. was told it will be at the desired address. the following day nothing arrived- no phone call no text no email. contacted them- the dumpster was delivered 24 hours later without a notice. upon its pick up, we responded to their text with a request to pick a loaded dumpster before the day 4 begins. the dumpster was still there, no actions. contacted them in the 4th day to make sure they received our text. they acted like it was first time hearing this. we were advised that we owe extra rental fees for an extra day although we texted a notification the night before. Two women operators were rude as hell. one just naked up the phone on us and another transferred me to another line with 10 callers ahead of me... what a shit show but not a family owned business. DO NOT use this company!! read more

OMG! I wish there was a zero rating or below zero rating I could give for this company. First of all, I Googled them and I really should have read these reviews or looked at the BBB before hiring them. I spoke to Tyler over the phone and gave him specific directions on where to put the dumpster, noting not to put it at the top of the driveway but at the end of the driveway near the house and garage because we did not want to have to carry trash up the long hill of the driveway. Well, they delivered the dumpster and set it up at the top of the driveway at around 6:30 a.m. before we got up. Never came to the front door to ask anything. As soon as we got up I called them to tell them that the dumpster was in the wrong place and they would need to come back and place it correctly. They sent me several text messages asking questions and finally texted me back and said that the instructions said the "end of the driveway" and if I wanted them to come back out they would charge me an additional $275. By that time I was so frustrated that I called them and went off! I was so angry! At them and at myself for not checking reviews. I told them that I was told the call was being recorded so they should have a recording of my instructions. I told them I spoke to Tyler when placing the order. I told them I would not be scammed and that the dumpter was blocking my son's car and he could not get out to go to work and I would be charging them for his missed workday if they did not get out there and move it. They had even placed it so close to a detached garage that you couldn't even get the door open. I was so furious that they seemed to be trying to scam me. I told them I would call the police if I had to and call someone to tow it off. Anyway, after around an hour after that they sent me a text and said that they had reviewed the order and agreed that they had misplaced the dumpster and would be sending someone out to move it at no charge. They eventually made everything right but at that point I felt like they were taking any opportunity to scam me so I made sure to re-read my contract. I made sure we did not overload the dumpter and did not put anything in dumpster that did not belong. I took pictures of the dumpter and its contents and made sure I called them to return to pick up the dumpster on the 4th day of a 5 day rental so they could not scam me by saying I didn't call for pickup. I took a picture of the gate firmly closed and locked and when they finally came to pick up the dumpster two days later I took a video of the pick up and asked on video if everything looked okay and the driver affirmed that everything looked fine. I am still paranoid that they are going to try to charge me something extra and am keeping all pics, info, video, etc. to protect myself. I would never use this company again and caution anyone thinking about using them. read more

first thing was I ordered one size and they brought smaller dumpster but charged for the larger one! when we called said no problem (this was a Tuesday) dumpster would be picked up on Friday and new bigger one set free of charge, surprise no dumpster and they charged my card for another 368!!! I did get ahold of one lady the following Monday and she was a total B$$$$!!! and hung up on me! left message after message with customer service with no answer! making my demolition of my house take longer with the incompetence! NEVER USE THIS COMPANY! Poor customer service, read more

My suggestion is to never ever use them. I filled a 20 yd dumpster to a level that would have been full in a 15 yd size dumpster.

I am so disappointed in this company. We have used them with no problem before. But this time was unbelievable. We order a dumpster for Thursday and it never showed up and they Reassured us they would be there the next day for sure. We had a renovation crew coming in to remodel our living room but because they never showed up with the dumpster we lost out on the chance to demo and renovated and were charged 1200 for the crews time. When we spoke to the company they hung up on us. And acting like it didn't matter. They have 0 customer service skills. Please dont waste your time just go somewhere else. They aren't worth the drama. And we are still waiting for our refund of 600. Oh and dont call after 3pm because they put you on a hold line that will drop you once it's your turn. It just pisses you off more. And never get through. I had to call from a different number acting like I needed a dumpster in order to get anyone to call me back. Unbelievable read more

Nightmare in getting the dumpster picked up! I sent text messages, emails, and many phone calls, EVERYTIME getting a different person. Was charged extra...

The worst company you can choose. Pick anyone else. They charge you by the pound and never give you a real weight slip. I ordered a 20 yard dumpster and they said the weight of contents was 7k.

I scheduled a dumpster for Monday. I called on Monday afternoon, they stated there was a computer problem. The dumpster would come Tuesday, No phone call from them, no apology.

Nobody had showed up. They stated the dumpster was too full and could not be removed. The came Wednesday(1 week late), the dumpster was at the same level as it was on Monday and picked it up. They charged a $250 inconvenience fee for it no being ready on Monday. DO NOT DEAL WITH THESE PEOPLE! read more
