[How It Works]

How Dumpster Rental Works

Renting a dumpster from ARS takes four steps: book by phone or online, we deliver and charge your card the business day before, you load it at your own pace, and we pick it up when you call or email that you’re done.

Step 1: Book

Call (847) 526-7643 and talk to Kristy, or book online. Have your delivery address, a brief description of the property, where you’d like the dumpster placed, your name, contact info, and a payment method ready. Not sure what size to get? See our Dumpster Sizes guide or ask Kristy directly.

Step 2: Delivery

Your card is charged the business day before delivery and a receipt is emailed to you. You don’t need to be home — we follow the placement instructions you gave us. Want to be there? Ask us to call when the driver is en route.

Step 3: Load It

A rear gate swings open so you can walk in and load instead of heaving items over the side. Trash doesn’t need to be bagged — we tarp the dumpster to keep loose papers from blowing out. Load evenly, keep debris below the fill line, and check our Accepted Materials list before you start.

Step 4: Pickup

Call or email when you’re finished — you don’t have to use the full rental period, and you don’t need to be there for pickup. Just keep the area around the dumpster clear of vehicles and debris. See pricing and fees for what happens if it’s overloaded or blocked.
