Dumpster Sizes Available in Bear
A 20-yard roll-off is popular for Bear remodels. A dump trailer handles most garage and basement cleanouts. Roll-off sizes are measured in cubic yards of debris capacity. The dump trailer holds about as much as a 10- to 15-yard roll-off and fits far more New Castle County driveways.
14-Ft Dump Trailer
A 14-foot hydraulic dump box on a tandem-axle trailer; holds roughly as much as a 10- to 15-yard roll-off.
If your driveway in Bear is short, narrow or sloped, the dump trailer is the easiest way to get a dumpster on site.
10-Yard Dumpster
About 12 ft long, 8 ft wide and 3.5 ft high; holds roughly three to four pickup loads.
The pick for dense debris like plaster, concrete or dirt. Weight fills it before volume does.

Types of Waste You Can Put in a Dumpster
Construction Debris
Concrete, drywall, lumber, roofing materials, flooring and general renovation debris all go in. Heavy material like concrete and brick needs a 10-yard on its own.
Household Junk
Household junk of every kind, from a single room to a whole house, as long as it isn't hazardous.
Yard Waste
Branches, shrubs, leaves, sod and landscaping debris are accepted. Old decking, sod, shrubs and storm limbs are common.
Prohibited items. Keep hazardous waste, liquid paint, fuel, oil, batteries, tires, propane tanks and asbestos out of any trailer or roll-off in Bear. The Delaware Solid Waste Authority holds household hazardous waste collection events around the state.
How to keep your Bear dumpster cost down
- Keep heavy material separate. Concrete, brick, dirt and rock hit the weight limit fast. Put them in their own small container and use a larger one for bulky, light debris.
- Pick the right size up front. One correctly sized container is cheaper than a second haul or an overweight charge.
- Keep rain and snow out. A tarp keeps rain and snow from adding weight you pay for at the scale.
- Pull out scrap metal and donations. Clean scrap metal can often be sold, and usable furniture can be donated. Both free up space.
- Load flat and full. Lay large, flat items on the bottom and fill gaps with smaller debris. Air pockets cost money.
Debris from Bear goes to the Delaware Solid Waste Authority's Cherry Island Landfill in Wilmington. Disposal costs are built into your price up to the included tonnage, which is why weight matters more than volume.

Dumpster placement
Most Bear homes have wide driveways that fit a dump trailer or a 20-yard roll-off. Many developments have HOA rules on container time limits.
Dumpster Permits and Placement Rules in Bear
Street placement permits
If the container sits on your driveway or other private property in Bear, you usually don't need a permit. If it has to go on a street, boulevard, alley or sidewalk, approval comes from DelDOT and New Castle County, since most roads outside city and town limits are state-maintained. Ask about the fee, how many days it covers and whether cones or reflectors are required, and have it in hand before delivery day.
HOA and landlord rules
Even when no permit is needed, an HOA, landlord or covenant may have its own rules on containers. Check for time limits and approved locations, then share them with us.
What the delivery spot needs
The truck needs a straight approach of about 60 feet, roughly 10 to 12 feet of width and clear overhead space with no low branches, wires or eaves above the drop spot. In winter, the spot and the path to it need to be plowed or shoveled. Leave room for a car to pass on shared driveways, and keep the container clear of mailbox and garbage-cart access. Short on space near the developments off Route 40? The dump trailer needs less room than any roll-off.
Storms, Seasons and the Best Time to Rent in Bear
Spring through fall is peak season along the Route 40 and Route 1 corridors. Book early for move-out weeks near the university. Local conditions in Bear: humid summers and wet winter storms.
Storms and winter weather
Winter rentals in Bear work fine with a little prep. Shovel the drop spot and a path for the truck, keep the container off the street during parking bans, and keep it tarped so snow doesn't add weight you pay for.
Older homes, coast and summer
Hurricane and tropical storm season runs into the fall. If a storm is forecast, call us: we can pull a container early or make sure it's tarped and secured.

Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Bear?
Not if it's on your driveway or private property. If it has to go on a street, boulevard, alley or sidewalk, check with DelDOT and New Castle County, since most roads outside city and town limits are state-maintained before delivery. HOA or covenant rules may also apply.
Can a dumpster be placed in my driveway?
