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

How we work in Wisconsin
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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin
At Wisconsin 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
Wisconsin rules a buyer should know
What follows is a buyer’s summary of the Wisconsin 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
Wisconsin DNR’s construction and demolition debris page says C&D debris is solid waste subject to chs. NR 500 to 538. Brick, broken pavement, building stone, clean soil, concrete, reinforced concrete, and unpainted or untreated wood are exempt from disposal-location rules under NR 500.08(2)(a), as long as they aren’t placed in a floodplain, wetland, surface water, or critical habitat. It’s illegal to burn C&D materials in Wisconsin, with few exceptions. Confirm acceptance with the facility before the haul.
Who may haul portable toilet waste
Wisconsin DNR’s septage business page says every septage business that services or disposes of septage, including portable restrooms, must be licensed under ch. NR 113, and each vehicle must be inspected and registered. The business needs a certified operator-in-charge under NR 114. Portable restroom servicing assistants don’t need certification but must work under the operator-in-charge. Crew counts are on the OSHA portable toilet requirements guide.
A container on a public street
Madison’s Street Occupancy Permit page says the permit covers materials or machinery on streets, terraces, sidewalks, alleys, and public grounds, and is also used for dumpsters in the city right-of-way. Apply at least one week before the occupancy. Other Wisconsin cities set their own rules.
Public disposal cost
Wisconsin DNR’s landfill fee chart, effective January 1, 2026, puts state fees on municipal solid waste at $13.097 per ton, and C&D waste is subject to all the same fees. That’s a state fee on disposal, not a customer price. More on disposal fees is in the landfill tipping fees guide.
