The Columbus, Ohio account
We coordinate providers that have completed jobs in the Columbus, Ohio area and we stay on the account. One agreement can hold roll-offs, portable toilets, and restroom trailers. How a hauler, a broker, and a managed network differ is the longer comparison. The municipal power over streets is on the Ohio page.

Columbus, Ohio metro · Deliveries
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.
The 903 occupancy permit
City of Columbus pages read October 26, 2026 are the basis for the right-of-way notes. Re-check the 903 rules before you occupy the curb. The Census title is Columbus, OH. The permit rules below are the City of Columbus.
A dumpster in the street
The Department of Public Service right-of-way permit page says a 903 occupancy permit is required to occupy the public right-of-way without excavation. The examples include placement of dumpsters or storage containers, along with fencing, material off-loading, and a crane. Apply at the city's permit portal. The 903 rules and regulations say an occupancy request is due at least three working days ahead. A full street closure needs ten working days. A full closure for a major planned event needs twenty working days.
Section 14 says every dumpster in the public right-of-way needs an occupancy permit, except Refuse Collection Division containers. The permit may be issued to the vendor or the person who asked for the container. The container needs orange-and-silver reflective tape at least 8 inches wide, two bands under four feet tall and three bands if taller, plus the company name, a 24-hour phone number, and a posted permit. A permit that covers only the dumpster is limited to seven days unless a longer time is approved in advance.
Portable toilets
The 903 rules say a block party, special event, or parade can require additional permits for items placed in the right-of-way. Crew counts stay on the OSHA portable toilet requirements guide.
