Kansas City metro · Jobs recorded
Figures are counts of completed deliveries, providers, and accounts in this window from our records, as of October 2026. Roll-off deliveries are containers delivered. Portable toilet deliveries are units placed, not orders. A company that completed both services is counted in both service rows, so those rows are not a split of the provider total. The counts are not a promise that every address is covered. Front-load service, compactors, and balers are not in these counts. The sanitation figure adds portable toilets and hand-wash units placed. Where a restroom-trailer count is shown, it is units placed.
Permits in Kansas City, Missouri
Kansas City, Missouri pages read October 26, 2026 are the source for the street rules in this section. Check CompassKC for the live application. A street on the Kansas side of the metro is a different city or county, with its own ordinance.
A dumpster in the street
Public Works says it accepts right-of-way permits only through CompassKC. The permit list includes a dumpster permit, a traffic control permit, a hauling permit, and a separate streetcar track access permit. Large outdoor events that need several city permits use an outdoor event application. Section 64-162 says no person shall place or maintain any structure, material, or thing on a street, curb, sidewalk, or public place except as the law specifically allows. Section 64-163 lets the director issue a temporary permit to use a portion of a street or sidewalk, and it conditions the permit on liability insurance. Section 64-9 says no person shall dump dirt, building material, debris, or rubbish on public property or a street except under a city permit.
Portable toilets
The permit list separates the dumpster permit from the outdoor event application used for festivals, art fairs, and parades. Crew counts stay on the OSHA portable toilet requirements guide.
Construction debris and city collection
The city's trash page, read October 26, 2026, tells residents that a large amount of construction debris, more than 500 pounds, is for a private waste company to haul. City collection is the household service. Call that private company when the pile is over 500 pounds.
