For facilities, procurement, and project managers with sites in Virginia. You get the network, the deliveries, and the state rules that change the buy.

How we work in Virginia
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 Virginia 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 Virginia
At Virginia 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
Virginia rules a buyer should know
What follows is a buyer’s summary of the Virginia 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
Virginia’s solid waste rules, 9VAC20-81-10, define construction waste as solid waste from construction, remodeling, or repair of pavements, houses, commercial buildings, and other structures, including lumber, wire, sheetrock, broken brick, shingles, glass, pipes, concrete, and paving materials. Demolition waste includes the same materials from tearing structures down. A facility’s permit can be narrower than the rule. Confirm acceptance with the facility before the haul.
Who may haul portable toilet waste
12VAC5-610-240 says anyone who removes and transports by vehicle the contents of a portable toilet, septic tank, privy, or holding tank shall have a written sewage handling permit from the Commissioner. VDH’s sewage handler page says applications go to the local or district health department, followed by a conference, an equipment inspection, and approval of disposal sites. Crew counts are on the OSHA portable toilet requirements guide.
A container on a public street
Richmond’s right-of-way management page says all work in the public right-of-way needs a Work in Streets Permit, and lists dumpsters and portable storage units among the uses that need one. If the container takes metered spaces, a separate parking permit is also required. Other Virginia localities set their own rules.
