Dumpster Rental Terms & Conditions – Tidy Up Time

​

1. Introduction / Acceptance

By accepting dumpster delivery and any related services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions.

​

2. Pricing & Payments

  • All base rental fees are due upon delivery of the dumpster.

  • Each rental includes a set number of tons depending on container size:

    • 20 yd = 3 tons (6,600 lbs)

    • 30 yd = 4 tons (8,800 lbs)

    • 40 yd = 6 tons (13,000 lbs)

  • Overweight: Each additional ton = $40 (landfill typically charges $30 per ton; Budget Dumpster charges $65 per ton).

  • Additional Days: Each extra rental day = $50.

  • Failed Pickup and/or Delivery: If access is blocked, a fee of $75 applies.

  • Cancellation: Cancelling less than 24 hours before delivery = $75 fee. Cancellations made more than 24 hours in advance are free of charge.

  • Any unpaid balances after 14 days may accrue interest (up to 15%) and a minimum late fee of $25, calculated from the date of container pickup.

  • If payment is made by a third party and later declined, reversed, or reported as fraudulent, the customer receiving the service remains fully responsible for all charges. In case of refusal to settle the balance, Tidy Up Time reserves the right to unload all materials on site.

​

3. Materials

  • Prohibited Materials: Liquids, chemicals, asbestos, medical waste, animal carcasses, batteries, paint, and hazardous waste. For a detailed list, please visit: Allowed Materials.

  • Not Accepted Materials: Our dumpsters are not equipped or rated for heavy materials such as dirt, rocks, or concrete.

  • Possible Extra Costs: Tires, appliances, and mattresses are accepted but could incur additional landfill fees.

​

4. Safe Loading

4.1 Height

Do not surpass the height of the dumpster walls. If exceeded, Tidy Up Time may require you to remove the excess material before pickup, or we may partially offload it on site to ensure safe transport.

4.2 Weight

Even if you can exceed the estimated weight limit by paying the extra fee, an extreme overload that surpasses the maximum safe capacity of the truck may cause Tidy Up Time to partially or completely offload materials on site.

4.3 Material Restrictions

Dumpsters are not designed or rated for demolition debris such as concrete, brick, dirt, or large structural materials.
Loading these materials may exceed the container’s structural load tolerance and the legal weight limits established by the Texas Department of Transportation (DOT).

Only limited amounts of heavy debris (for example, tile, drywall, or small renovation waste) are permitted when staying within the legal weight capacity of the container.
If an overload or restricted material is detected, Tidy Up Time may require partial or full offloading on-site to comply with DOT safety regulations.

​​

⚠️ These measures apply to both material restrictions and permitted loading height and weight limits, and are required for compliance with Texas Department of Transportation (DOT) safety regulations.

​

5. Access & Ground Conditions

  • The customer is responsible for providing clear and safe access for delivery and pickup.

  • Tidy Up Time is not responsible for damage to driveways, sidewalks, asphalt, paving, or landscaping caused by the weight of trucks or dumpsters, except in cases of proven negligence.

  • If the customer fails to return the container, Tidy Up Time reserves the right to enter the premises without notice to retrieve its property at the customer’s expense, and the customer waives any claims for damages from such entry or removal.

​

6. Equipment Responsibility

  • The customer is liable for any loss or damage to rented equipment beyond normal wear and tear.

  • Burning garbage in the container is strictly prohibited. Any cost associated with extinguishing a fire and/or repairing damages caused by fire will be the customer’s responsibility.

  • The container must not be moved from its original placement. If relocation is required, contact Tidy Up Time for assistance.

  • Tidy Up Time is not responsible for injuries, damages, or accidents involving people, animals, or vehicles that interact with the dumpster without authorization.

  • Customers must not climb into or on top of dumpsters or their contents.

  • Customers are responsible for the safe use of the dumpster’s rear door. Tidy Up Time is not liable for accidents or damages resulting from improper use or manipulation of the door.
