Capacity

Each of our roll-off dumpsters are designed to hold no more than a specific amount of tonnage. If your tonnage goes over the tons quoted in your order, you will be charged additional costs. Certain materials including dirt and concrete are very heavy in comparison to equal volumes of vinyl, cardboard, wood, aluminum siding and everyday trash. Before putting any heavier materials in our dumpsters, make sure you review the terms and conditions of your contract regarding tonnage. You may also call the Mighty Haul office.

Acceptable Materials

Only solid waste items are permitted into dumpsters. Items that are NOT permitted are radioactive, volatile, highly flammable, explosive, biomedical, infectious, toxic or hazardous materials. No free liquids of any kind are allowed in the dumpster. Additional requirements may apply based upon locality. Liability for appropriate waste remains with the customer as agreed to in the terms and conditions of your contract.

Items that are NOT permitted in our roll-off dumpsters are hazardous waste, dirt, industrial waste, chemical products, oil filters, herbicides & pesticides, radioactive material, solvents, paint (except completely dried latex paint cans, no liquids), other flammable liquids, aerosol cans, propane tanks, motor oil, transmission oil/lubricating/hydraulic oil/ oil filters, contaminated oils (mixed with solvents, gasoline, etc.)

antifreeze, appliances, petroleum contaminated soil/lead paint chips, tires, batteries, computers, monitors, televisions, microwaves, fluorescent tubes, railroad ties, medical waste, asbestos, animals, barrels, all liquids. Material must be lower than or level to the top of the roll-off dumpster.

Ordering

You can order by calling Mighty Haul at (504) 353-6969. There is no guaranteed delivery time, so if you need a dumpster for early morning, please schedule delivery for the day before.

Delivery

It is not necessary to have someone on site. Our drivers are experienced professionals. Unless you provide precise placement instructions, our driver will use his best judgment and place the dumpster in the safest accessible area. Please note that if an onsite contact is not available for delivery, you will be responsible for all charges involved with relocation of the dumpster should it be necessary. Also, if our driver comes for removal and you are not ready for your dumpster to be picked up, we will charge an additional fee for wait time or a second trip.

Placement

To guarantee clearance during delivery and pick up, you should provide a space for the dumpster that will accommodate double the amount of the width and height of the dumpster. If you want to place the dumpster on the street, please check with your local municipality, as permits may be required. If we are placing on a surface such as a driveway or pavement, we strongly recommend that you protect it with a 4′ x 8′ sheet of plywood. You must also make sure that access to the drop-off location is strong enough to endure the weight of our equipment and the vehicle required to perform the contracted service. The customer assumes all liabilities for damages to private driving surfaces, pavement or road surfaces and entire dumpster placement site. Mighty Haul will not be responsible for any damages to any private driving surface, pavement or accompanying subsurface of any route associated to perform the service that was contracted.

Removal

It is not necessary to have someone on site. You must, however, provide unobstructed access to the equipment on the scheduled pick-up day. If our dumpster is not accessible, you will be charged additional pick-up fees. If our driver comes for removal and you are not ready for your dumpster to be picked up, we will charge an additional fee for wait time or a second trip. There is an additional charge for keeping the dumpster longer than designated in your order.

Rush Services

Rush or emergency services will be based upon location and availability. We will try to accommodate your request, but our policy is to require order placement at least one business day in advance to allow for processing.

Additional Hauls

You can add additional hauls to your order, but you will be charged the full initial quoted amount for each additional haul.

Please have your contract available for any changes to your order, including changes in dumpster size, or location or date of delivery or pickup. If location is changing, please have the new service address, as well as directions and contact information, for the location change. Allow at least one business day for processing any changes or cancellations. Changes and cancellations may incur fees as contract terms and conditions apply.
