How we work in Pennsylvania
Local haulers do the work; we hold the contract, own the problems, and send one bill. One agreement can hold roll-off dumpsters, portable toilets, and restroom trailers for every Pennsylvania site. If you’re weighing us against a single hauler, here’s how a broker, a hauler, and our provider network differ.

The network
The network in Pennsylvania
At Pennsylvania job sites, October 26, 2024 through October 26, 2026 · Published figure
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.
State rules
Pennsylvania rules a buyer should know
What follows is a buyer’s summary of the Pennsylvania rules that change the buy. It is not legal advice, so check the current text and the site’s local ordinance before you rely on it.
Where construction debris can go
DEP’s construction and demolition waste page says C&D waste is part of Pennsylvania’s municipal waste stream and goes to municipal waste and C&D landfills or permitted processing. Uncontaminated soil, rock, stone, gravel, brick and block, concrete, and used asphalt that are kept separate and used as clean fill don’t need a permit. A facility’s permit can be narrower than the rule. Confirm acceptance with the facility before the haul.
Who may haul portable toilet waste
25 Pa. Code § 73.64 says chemical or other portable toilets at temporary construction sites may be exempt from the onlot permitting requirements. 25 Pa. Code § 285.225 says a transporter of residential septage notifies DEP, gets a transporter number, and displays it on the sides and rear of each vehicle in numbers at least 3 inches high. Crew counts are on the OSHA portable toilet requirements guide.
A container on a public street
Philadelphia’s Streets Department right-of-way application is the permit to occupy space on a city street with a temporary dumpster. The Right-of-Way Unit needs at least 4 full business days of notice and won’t accept short-notice applications. Other Pennsylvania municipalities set their own rules.
Public disposal cost
Pennsylvania state disposal fees are on the landfill tipping fees guide.
