What we rent in North Charleston
North Charleston is the most mixed area we serve, and what we rent reflects that. Houses in the older neighborhoods take residential rentals for cleanouts and remodels. Shops, warehouses, and job sites run commercial dumpsters on swap-outs, which is a good share of our week.
Yard and lot debris goes in a yard-waste dumpster. Property managers clearing a unit between tenants usually take a junk-removal rental and fill it as they go.
Dumpster sizes for North Charleston projects
North Charleston jobs range from a 13 for a cleanout up to a 17 or 22 for contractor work, and heavy concrete or dirt goes in the low 7-yard.

Dumpster Placement in North Charleston
North Charleston is the most mixed area we serve, and the job changes depending on whether we're at a house or a business. Residential streets in the older neighborhoods have compact driveways and mature trees to work around. On the commercial and industrial side there's usually room to spare and a hard surface underneath, which makes for some of the easiest drops we do.
That mix shows up in the work. Household cleanouts and remodels on one side, contractor debris and property turnovers on the other. If it's a business, our commercial page covers how we handle jobsite and ongoing service.
Why North Charleston goes with Family Trash
North Charleston gives us everything from Park Circle bungalow renovations to rental turnovers and light commercial work, and the jobs are as varied as the neighborhoods. Tony quotes them all the same way: one flat number, and the container where your crew or your family actually needs it. More about Family Trash.
The Self-Haul Problem in Charleston County
North Charleston has no county convenience center inside city limits, and the county landfill does not take renovation debris from the public: Bees Ferry accepts no construction or demolition waste from private or commercial haulers. For a homeowner with a gutted bathroom, there is no county gate to drive to.
What the county system does cover: household garbage runs through the city at (843) 745-1026, yard waste crosses the Bees Ferry Compost Facility scale at $59 a ton with a one-ton cap, and municipal solid waste goes over the landfill scale at $100 a ton, weekdays 7 to 4 and Saturday 8 to 3, at 1344 Bees Ferry Road. The eight staffed convenience centers require Charleston County proof of residency plus a photo ID, and the closest ones sit on James Island and out in the rural ends of the county.
| The load | County route | The rental |
|---|---|---|
| Remodel or demolition debris | Barred from Bees Ferry for private haulers. No county option exists. | 13 to 22-yard, disposal included in the price. |
| Yard waste | $59 a ton at the compost facility, one-ton max, in West Ashley. | A yard-waste container takes the volume with no scale house. |
| Household overflow | City pickup at (843) 745-1026, or a convenience center with residency proof. | A 13-yard cleanout container on your own dates. |
Rates and rules: Charleston County Environmental Management. Dumping on public or private land is barred by County Ordinance #1115, Section 5-A; the county report line is (843) 202-7200.

North Charleston dumpster rental FAQ
How much does a dumpster cost in North Charleston, SC?
Pricing in North Charleston works the same on a mill-village bungalow as on a warehouse clear-out. It is one flat price with delivery, pickup, and disposal included, and you see it before you book. Here is how pricing works.
What size dumpster do I need in North Charleston?
The older houses here hide more debris than their size suggests, and a gutted kitchen plus original flooring fills a 13-yard quickly. Rental turnovers with furniture usually want a 17, and anything masonry goes in the 7-yard. Not sure? Use the size guide.
Can you swap a full dumpster for an empty one in North Charleston?
Yes. If a North Charleston job fills the dumpster before you are done, call and we will haul the full one off and set an empty one in its place, so you are not stuck waiting to finish.
Can I put brush and yard debris in a North Charleston dumpster?
Yes. Brush, limbs, furniture, and general remodeling debris are all fine in a North 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.
How far ahead should I book a dumpster in North Charleston?
A day or two ahead is plenty for most North Charleston drops. If you are coordinating with a demo crew or a tenant move-out date, tell us the date that cannot slip and we will plan around it.
Which towns near North Charleston do you deliver to?
Along with North Charleston, we deliver to Charleston, Hanahan, Goose Creek, Ladson, and the neighborhoods in between. Same containers at the same flat rate, Park Circle to the Ashley. See every town we cover.
Besides North Charleston, do you cover the rest of Charleston County?
Yes. North Charleston is one stop in Charleston County, and we also run Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, James Island and the towns around them. Browse the full service area.
Which yard do you run North Charleston out of?
We run North Charleston out of our yard on Folly Road on James Island, straight up the interstate. It is one of the areas we cover most, so the route usually has a truck heading that way already.
Can I haul remodel debris to the dump myself in North Charleston?
Not to the county landfill. Bees Ferry takes no construction or demolition debris from private haulers, so self-hauling means a private C&D facility and its gate rates. A rented container includes the disposal, which is the point of renting one.
Who handles regular trash pickup in North Charleston?
The city, at (843) 745-1026. A dumpster rental covers what the city line won’t take: tear-out debris, a cleanout, roofing, a property turnover.
