★ Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to
Know Before You Order

Pricing, sizing, delivery, prohibited items, and the family-owned story behind Greenway Dumpsters — all in one place.

Pricing & Billing

How does Greenway dumpster rental pricing work?

Greenway uses flat-rate pricing — no surprise fuel surcharges, environmental fees, or weight overage games. The quote you see is the bill you pay. Each size includes a standard 7-day rental and a weight allowance.

Does Greenway charge by weight?

Most sizes include 1-3 tons depending on the size booked. Overage is billed at $73/ton. We send a receipt with the actual weight from the landfill scale — no guessing.

What payment methods do you accept?

All major cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover) and ACH bank transfer. Card is charged when the dumpster is delivered, not when you order.

Can I cancel after I order?

Yes — up to 24 hours before scheduled delivery, no charge. After the truck rolls, a small dispatch fee applies. Just call.

Sizes & Capacity

What dumpster sizes does Greenway offer?

Greenway offers six roll-off sizes: 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 40 cubic yards. The 20 yard is the most-rented size — it fits a typical 3-car driveway and handles most renovations and cleanouts.

Which size should I rent?

Garage cleanouts and small bath remodels: 10-15 yard. Full kitchen remodel or full-house cleanout: 20-30 yard. Roof tear-offs, large demos, multi-unit cleanouts: 30-40 yard. When in doubt call (317) 617-9464 — 60 second sizing.

How tall are the dumpsters?

3 ft (10yd) up to 6 ft (40yd). The 20 yard sits at 5 ft — easy to toss bulky items over the wall.

Delivery & Pickup

How fast can Greenway deliver?

Next-day delivery available across the Indianapolis metro on most orders. Call (317) 617-9464 by midday or order online for the fastest scheduling.

How long can I keep the dumpster?

Standard rental is 7 nights included with most sizes. Extra days are $15/night. If your project runs long, just call — we will extend it.

Where can I put the dumpster?

Driveway is best — flat hard surface, clear of overhead wires and tree limbs. Street placement is allowed in most Indy-metro jurisdictions but may require a permit.

Do you damage driveways?

We use driveway protection — typically 2x4 or 2x6 boards placed under the dumpster — to keep concrete and asphalt safe. In over 113,000 deliveries we have never charged a customer for damage we caused. If something happens, we make it right.

Do I need to be home for delivery?

Not required. We just need to know where you want it. We will call you when we are on the way and confirm the placement spot.

What You Can & Can’t Put In

What CAN go in a Greenway dumpster?

Household junk, furniture, mattresses, construction debris, roofing shingles, drywall, lumber, yard waste, carpet, flooring, cabinets, doors, appliances (no freon), concrete & brick in small amounts.

What CAN’T go in a Greenway dumpster?

No liquids, paint, tires, hazardous chemicals, asbestos, batteries, medical waste, propane tanks, freon appliances, oils, fuels, or tree stumps.

Can I throw away a refrigerator?

Yes — but freon must be professionally evacuated first. We can recommend an Indianapolis appliance recycler if you need one.

What about concrete or brick?

OK in small amounts (subject to the weight allowance). For a clean-fill-only load, call us — we route to a recycling facility instead for better pricing.
