  • Customer requested specific placement and noted that they will show the driver
  • Customer elected to pay the driver upon delivery

How long can I keep the bin?

Bin rental pricing is for 14 days, but we understand that some projects require additional time. If you need a bin longer than two weeks, please feel free to call our office to discuss an extended rental period and pricing.
