Battery Dsiposal
Incorrect Battery Disposal Can Cause Fires
Common household items seem harmless, however, the batteries in them pose risks when disposed into regular garbage or recycling containers because of their highly flammable nature.
Store batteries in a safe place
Use the roll off container to dispose of various waste materials during the rental period. Contact us to schedule a pickup when you're ready.
Find your local drop off
Ensure safe and efficient transportation by avoiding overloading the dumpster. Overloading can lead to vehicle damage, road safety hazards, and costly fines.
