Wonderful experience and afforable! Rented multiple dumpsters during our renovation and Tony was great to work with! Will definitely use them again for our next project!
About Family Trash
Family-Owned Dumpster Company in Charleston, SC
Started in 2023 by Tony Gentile, run out of James Island, and still small enough that you get Tony on the phone. Call or text any day of the week.
Tony Gentile started Family Trash in 2023, after years in the towing and limo business. He kept noticing dumpsters on every job, watched how fast Charleston was building and tearing down, and figured he could do it better by keeping it simple.
He still answers his own phone, and most days he's the one who drops your dumpster and comes back for it. Call the number and you get Tony, his wife Toni, or her sister Tracey. No phone tree, nobody on hold.
"Around here, how you treat people matters. That's how we run our business."
He's been in Charleston about forty years and his kids grew up here, so when you tell him where you want the can, he usually already knows the street. That local knowledge is half the job, especially downtown, where a dumpster has to fit between two houses that sit close together.
What We Do in Charleston
Family Trash rents roll-off dumpsters, and that's the whole business. Four sizes, from a 7-yard built for concrete and dirt up to a 22-yard for a full renovation, plus a flatbed for moving equipment or materials. We deliver, you load on your own time, and we haul it off.
Where the name came from is no mystery. It's family-owned, the family's been in town a long time, and the first thing most people are hauling out is their own family's stuff. Tony's greeting on the phone is "let's talk some trash." It stuck.
Licensed and insured, based on James Island, serving Charleston and 16 towns around it.

Great and timely service! The ease of use of the booking link made everything simple and easy! Tony came out and even had the driveway protectors to prevent the steel from laying on my concrete and leaving rust stains!
What that means for you
When you call, you get Tony or his family, not a call center. That's the whole point of keeping it small. He'll steer you to the size that actually fits your job instead of selling you more than you need, and you get a straight price before you book, with delivery, pickup, and disposal already in it.
He runs the trucks himself most days, so the person who answers the phone is usually the person who drops your dumpster. Licensed and insured, open seven days a week, and been around Charleston long enough that he probably already knows your street.
