Renting a dumpster might seem straightforward, but to keep your site safe, accessible, and compliant, there are some important guidelines you should follow—especially when using dumpsters that include the convenience of an attached portable toilet, like the unique 2-in-1 units from redbox+ Dumpsters of the Suncoast.
At redbox+ Dumpsters of the Suncoast, we’re committed not only to delivering high-quality dumpsters but also to providing exceptional, courteous service with an emphasis on site safety and accessibility. Our experienced drivers take extra care to ensure your property and neighboring spaces are respected and that your project runs smoothly from start to finish.
Here are 5 essential ADA and site safety tips to keep in mind when renting a dumpster for your next project:
1. Choose the Right Dumpster Placement for Accessibility
Proper placement of your dumpster is crucial—not only for efficient waste disposal but also to maintain accessibility for everyone on your site. Make sure the dumpster is positioned so it doesn’t block sidewalks, doorways, ramps, or other access points, especially for people with disabilities.
If your dumpster includes an attached portable toilet, allow sufficient clearance around the unit for wheelchair access and safe entry and exit. This ensures compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines and keeps your site welcoming for all workers and visitors.
2. Protect Your Property & Neighboring Spaces
Our drivers at redbox+ Dumpsters of the Suncoast understand the value of your property. They take extra precautions when delivering and picking up dumpsters, such as:
- Using plywood or protective mats under the dumpster to prevent damage to driveways, lawns, or landscaping.
- Coordinating with you to select a spot that minimizes inconvenience to neighbors and other nearby properties.
- Ensuring the dumpster is placed on a stable, level surface to prevent tipping or movement.
Communicate any site-specific concerns or restrictions when booking, and our team will do everything possible to accommodate your needs.
3. Maintain Portable Toilet Hygiene & Safety
One of the standout features of redbox+ Dumpsters of the Suncoast dumpsters is our patented Elite 2-in-1 roll-off dumpster and portable toilet combo, designed to streamline your project by combining waste disposal and restroom facilities in one unit.
To keep the portable toilet sanitary and safe:
- Position the dumpster in a well-ventilated, shaded area if possible to reduce odors.
- Ensure regular cleaning and servicing schedules are adhered to, especially for longer projects.
- Provide hand sanitizers or handwashing stations nearby to encourage good hygiene practices.
4. Follow Local Regulations & Dumpster Restrictions
Every community has its own rules about dumpster placement, waste disposal, and portable toilet use. Before your delivery:
- Check with your local city or county regulations to ensure your dumpster placement complies with zoning and ADA requirements.
- Avoid blocking fire hydrants, utility meters, or public rights-of-way.
- Inform your neighbors if the dumpster or portable toilet will be on the street or shared property to maintain goodwill.
