Frequently Asked Questions

Q.What is the process behind renting a dumpster?
A. First you contact us at Royal Rolloffs Midwest Division and let us know when and where you would like your dumpster delivered. Then, Review and sign the Royal Rolloffs Midwest Division Rental Agreement. The rental agreement can be digitally signed on our website at www.royalrolloffsmidwestdivision.com. We can also email a client a copy of our rental agreement. In rare cases a hard copy can be hand delivered by one of our drivers. The Royal Rolloffs Midwest Division rental agreement details all the payment options, and provides a detailed description of what can and cannot be placed in our dumpsters. Once the rental agreement is signed and we have scheduled a delivery date, one of our drivers will deliver your dumpster. Once you have filled the dumpster to its capacity give us a call, and we’ll take it away!

A.If you discuss with Royal Rolloffs Midwest Division what you plan to use the dumpster for we can give you a general guideline on loading.
Q.What happens if I overload the dumpster?
A.If you overload the dumpster, you will be responsible for unloading the dumpster. Other options are we can bring you another dumpster at the standard 7-day rate, or we can hire a contractor to unload the dumpster and pass that charge on to you. If no other amicable solution to reducing an overfilled dumpster can be found the contents of the dumpster may be emptied on the site of your project and you will be charged the standard pick up rate.
Q.Can I load the dumpster using machinery?
