Built for San Marcos Rentals, Remodels, and Move-Outs

San Marcos keeps us busy in a few predictable ways. Property managers and landlords call between leases, when units need furniture and junk cleared fast. Homeowners call for remodels and garage cleanouts. And contractors working on the steady stream of new housing need reliable swaps so their sites stay clean.

Move-out season around the university is the busiest stretch of the year. If you manage rental property, book early — we’ll hold a container for your turnover date so you’re not scrambling the week leases end.

Residential Dumpster Service in San Marcos

For homeowners, we keep it simple: one flat quote, a delivery window that fits your schedule, and a container placed on boards to protect your driveway. Garage cleanouts, flooring jobs, and single-room remodels usually fit a 10 or 15-yard. Whole-house cleanouts and kitchen remodels usually call for a 20-yard. More on home projects is on our residential dumpster rental page.

Construction Dumpster Rental in San Marcos

Contractors building and remodeling in San Marcos need containers that arrive when the crew does and get swapped before debris piles up. We schedule recurring swaps, handle heavy loads like drywall, framing lumber, and roofing, and work with your site supervisor on placement. Most construction jobs run a 30 or 40-yard. See our construction dumpster rental page for details.

Tips for Landlords and Property Managers

• Book ahead of lease turnover so the container is on site before tenants leave.
• Place it close to the units to cut down on carrying furniture across a lot.
• Watch for prohibited items — tenants often leave paint, batteries, and tires behind.
• Ask about swaps if you’re turning over several units in the same week.

How Delivery Works in San Marcos

Call or send the online form with your address, project, and preferred date. We’ll recommend a size, give you a flat price, and confirm a delivery window. When you’re done, we pick it up — usually within one business day of your call.

If the container needs to go on a public street, check with the city first. Our permit guide covers how street placement typically works and how to avoid needing a permit.

What You Can Put in the Dumpster

• Household junk, furniture, and old mattresses (some landfills add a small per-item fee for mattresses)
• Remodel debris: drywall, cabinets, flooring, tile, and trim
• Roofing shingles and underlayment
• Yard waste, branches, and brush
• Wood, fencing, and decking

Keep these out of the container:

• Paint, solvents, oil, and other liquids
• Car batteries and tires
• Appliances that still contain Freon
• Propane tanks and anything pressurized
• Medical or hazardous waste

Choosing the Right Size

We offer 10-yard, 15-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard, and 40-yard containers. A single apartment cleanout usually fits a 10 or 15-yard. Multiple units, a full house, or a remodel usually need a 20 or 30-yard. Construction sites typically run 30 or 40-yard containers with scheduled swaps.
