Disclaimer

General information only

The guides, size charts, weight figures and regulatory summaries on this site are written to be genuinely useful and are researched carefully. They are still general information. They are not legal advice, engineering advice, environmental compliance advice or insurance advice, and they are not a substitute for confirming requirements with the relevant authority.

Weights, sizes and capacities

Container dimensions differ between manufacturers, and the weight of a given material varies considerably with moisture, age and composition. Every figure published here is an approximate working number intended to help you choose a size, not a specification. The dimensions and allowance that apply to your rental are the ones confirmed on your quote.

Regulations and permits

Virginia disposal rules, city ordinances, right-of-way permit requirements and transfer station policies change, and they differ between the 15 communities we cover — Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Hampton, Newport News and Poquoson are each their own independent city government, with no overlying county of any kind. Where we state a rule we have checked it, and where we could not verify one we say so rather than guessing. Always confirm current requirements directly with the relevant city and with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for household hazardous waste before relying on them.

Hazardous materials

Asbestos and lead paint work in Virginia is regulated and, above defined thresholds, must be carried out by licensed contractors with prior notification to the state — a rule that matters here more than in most markets given how many older homes in Ghent, Larchmont and other pre-1978 Norfolk-area neighborhoods are being renovated. Nothing on this site should be read as suggesting that such material may be placed in a container or handled without the required testing, licensing and notification.

Third-party links

We link to municipal, state and federal resources because they are authoritative and useful. We do not control their content and are not responsible for it.
