What we rent in Charleston
Family Trash rents roll-off dumpsters for every kind of job in Charleston, same cans, matched to the project. For homeowners, that's residential rentals for cleanouts, remodels, and downsizing. For builders and businesses, it's commercial and contractor cans with swap-outs on longer jobs.
We also drop yard-waste dumpsters for brush and storm debris, and if you're clearing out a house, a junk-removal rental lets you load on your own time while we haul the whole can away.

The 13-yard fits most home projects, the 17 and 22 handle bigger remodels and cleanouts, and concrete or dirt go in the 7-yard.
How a Charleston rental works

Order online or call Tony. Pick your size, set the date and the drop spot, and you're done in a couple of minutes.
We drop it
We bring it to your spot in Charleston and set it where you want it. You don't need to be home. Keep it 1 to 30 days.
We haul it
Tell us when you're done and we take it away, disposal included. Fill up early? We'll swap it for an empty one.
Most of what comes out of a home or a jobsite is good to go. Keep concrete, dirt, and roofing in the 7-yard, and leave out batteries, chemicals, and electronics. See the full list of what goes in.
Dumpster Placement in Charleston
Charleston covers everything from tight peninsula blocks to the neighborhoods spreading out from them, so placement really depends on the address. Closer in, lots sit near each other and driveways are short where they exist at all, which makes deciding where the can goes the first thing to work out. Farther from the center you usually have normal driveway room and it's an easy drop.
If your job is on the peninsula itself, our downtown page gets deeper into street placement and permits, since that's where it comes up most. Around the city generally we see interior renovation, single-room demo, roof work, and clearing a house between owners.
Why Charleston goes with Family Trash
Family Trash is a small local operation, not a national chain. When you call about a Charleston rental, Tony picks up, and he's the one driving the truck and setting the can. He knows Charleston and how tight some of these streets and driveways get, so placement and pickup go smooth. More about Family Trash.

Charleston dumpster rental FAQ
How much does a dumpster cost in Charleston, SC?
Your Charleston price depends on the size you pick and how long you keep it, not on your address. It is one flat price with delivery, pickup, and disposal included, and you see it before you book. Here is how pricing works.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Charleston?
For most Charleston jobs the can goes in your driveway and you do not need a permit. If it has to sit in the street, check with the city first, and keep it on your own property clear of the sidewalk otherwise.
What size dumpster do I need in Charleston?
For most Charleston home projects the 13-yard is the one, and it fits a single driveway. Step up to the 17 or 22 for a big remodel, and concrete or dirt go in the 7-yard. The size guide lines projects up with a can.
How far ahead should I book a dumpster in Charleston?
A day or two of notice helps us fit your Charleston drop into the route, but it is worth a call either way. Tell us your spot and date and we will let you know the soonest we can get one there.
Can I put brush and yard debris in a Charleston dumpster?
Yes. Brush, limbs, furniture, and general remodeling debris are all fine in a Charleston rental. Heavy material like concrete, dirt, and roofing goes in the low 7-yard, and we cannot take batteries, chemicals, or electronics. See the full list of what goes in.
Which towns near Charleston do you deliver to?
Along with Charleston, we deliver to Downtown Charleston, West Ashley, James Island, Mount Pleasant, and the neighborhoods in between. Same cans, same flat pricing across the area. See every town we cover.
Besides Charleston, do you cover the rest of Charleston County?
Yes. Charleston is one stop in Charleston County, and we also run North Charleston, John's Island, Isle of Palms and the towns around them. Browse the full service area.
Which yard do you run Charleston out of?
We run Charleston out of our yard on Folly Road on James Island, in Charleston County. Working from one local yard is how Tony keeps the route tight and knows the Charleston streets before he gets there.
