How to Prepare Your Driveway for a Dumpster

Prevent cracks and scratches. Why we use wood boards and what you need to clear before our truck arrives.

A fully loaded dumpster can weigh thousands of pounds. While residential driveways are strong, we believe in taking extra precautions.

The Apex Standard

We always place wood boards under the steel rollers of our dumpsters. This distributes the weight and prevents scratches or gouges in your asphalt or concrete.

What You Can Do: Ensure the drop-off area is clear of vehicles, hanging tree branches, or low power lines. Our trucks need about 60 feet of clearance to back in and tilt the bed. If you have a gate code, make sure to provide it during booking!
