Dumpster rental in Baie-D’Urfé

Choose the right type of dumpster

Size is not the whole story: dumpsters are rented by material type. Each type goes to a different disposal facility — that is why mixed loads bring extra fees. One choice to make, five options:

Dry materials (mixed)

10, 20 and 40 cubic yards

The do-it-all dumpster: wood, drywall, metal, shingles, furniture — mixed, no problem.

Soil, rocks and sod only

20 yard — the only size offered

Excavation, grading, sod removal — soil, rocks and sod, nothing else.

Concrete only

20 yard — the only size offered

Walkways, slabs, foundations — broken concrete, nothing else.

Bricks and mortar only

20 yard — the only size offered

Walls, chimneys, masonry facing — bricks and mortar, nothing else.

Asphalt only

20 yard — the only size offered

Old torn-up paving, curb pieces — asphalt, nothing else.

Why it matters. A dumpster rented for concrete that shows up at the disposal facility with wood in it is refused at the concrete rate: the sorting gets billed back. If you have several types of materials, say so in the form or at 514 708-2424 — we point you to the right type, or to two dumpsters when that costs less than sorting fees.

Strictly refused, in every dumpster

Tires

Paint and solvents refused in every dumpster

Paint, solvents, oils

Propane, aerosols, acids

Frequently asked questions — Baie-D’Urfé

Do I need a permit to place a dumpster in Baie-D’Urfé?

Yes — and that is what sets Baie-D’Urfé apart from almost every town we serve. By-law 1109 on the issuing of permits and certificates lists at section 6.1.1 the work requiring a certificate of authorization, and its paragraph 15 covers « installing a container, a pods or any other temporary construction or installation » — the French text, which prevails, uses the word conteneur. The planning department's « Certificats » page says the same in its own words — « Pods, Container etc. » — the fee is 50 $, and a certificate issued for a temporary PODS-type container « is valid for a maximum period of one (1) month », against twelve months for the others. Zoning adds that « temporary PODS-type containers are prohibited, except where they are the subject of a specific authorization by temporary permit ». The town issues the certificate and judges your case: call before you set the delivery date, all the more so since by-law 1109 recalls « the obligation, in case of doubt, to enquire with the competent authority ». Planning department: 514 457-3321, info-urb@baie-durfe.qc.ca.

Can I have the dumpster placed on the street in front of my house?

No. Two official town pages publish the same rule: « the by-law prohibits at all times parking for more than 4 consecutive hours on the town's streets », under section 6.3 of the traffic by-law. The truck may stop long enough to set the box down or pick it up — the same section allows trucks on a public road « unless they are continuously being used for loading or unloading » — but the box does not stay there. Add the ban on placing any material or debris within a public road right-of-way without the town's authorization (by-law 1112, s. 2.9.3) and the ban on dumping construction materials in a ditch, on a vacant lot or on public property (by-law 969, s. 29, 200 $ to 400 $). So the spot is in your driveway: that is where we deliver.

My driveway crosses a ditch on a culvert. Can the truck get in?

That is the number one question in Baie-D’Urfé, because the town has no curbs but open ditches, and « maintenance of open ditches and private driveway culverts is the responsibility of the owners ». The construction by-law requires that « culverts must have sufficient strength to bear the weight of the vehicles that will use them to reach the land served » — minimum diameter 30 cm, minimum stiffness 320 kPa in high-density polyethylene. A loaded truck is the heaviest vehicle that will ever cross that pipe, and rebuilding it is at the owner's expense. We talk it through at booking: depending on the culvert's age and condition, we choose where the truck bears its weight, or we set the box down before the ditch. And during the work nothing goes into the ditch: the by-law prohibits it, and drainage must not be interrupted.

Why are you asking me where my septic tank is?

Because most of the residential sector has no sanitary sewer: « the residential part of Baie-D’Urfé developed with a water supply network but, for the most part, without sanitary sewer service », says the urban plan — which is also what imposed the town's large lots. The septic installation guide requires access covers to be « accessible at all times » and « never obstructed or buried », under a fine the town puts between 1,000 $ and 100,000 $, and warns that « in an emergency, the town may request that your septic tank be pumped, without notice ». A full dumpster on a cover blocks that access; on the leaching field, it compacts the treatment element. If you do not know where they are, you are not alone: the town admits the plan may not exist in its records and refers you to a land surveyor. Environment Division: 514 457-5339.

Can municipal collection be enough for my renovation?

For a small load, yes. For a job site, no — and the town says so itself. The bulky waste collection does accept construction residues (brick, mortar, stone, soil, asphalt, concrete, asphalt shingles, lumber, ceramic, gypsum, melamine, flat glass), but « the number of items is limited to TEN per household », no item may exceed 100 kg or 1.8 m x 1.2 m, and the collection runs only on the second Monday of the month, from mid-April to mid-November. The special collection, on call on Mondays with three days' notice at 514 457-2877, costs a minimum of 70.00 $ per hour by truck under the fee by-law. The municipal FAQ concludes: « For large renovation projects, renting a waste dumpster is recommended. »

Can the drop-off centre replace a dumpster?

Baie-D’Urfé has no drop-off centre; the two nearest are the agglomeration's, in Saint-Laurent (3535 rue Sartelon) and LaSalle (7272 rue Saint-Patrick), at the other end of the island. A resident gets 12 m³ free per year, then pays 31 $ per m³; a construction company pays 31 $ per m³ from the first cubic metre. Everything is unloaded by hand: « no mechanical means (e.g. a tipping body) may be used » and « drop-off centre staff do not help with unloading ». The arithmetic is quick: a 10 yard box holds 7.6 m³, a 20 yard 15.3 m³, a 40 yard 30.6 m³ — a single 20 yard box exceeds a resident's whole annual allowance. Add that both centres are closed on Mondays, and on Sundays too from October 15 to April 14.

How long can I keep the dumpster in Baie-D’Urfé?

Two municipal boundaries to know, and one offer on our side. Installing a container requires a certificate of authorization here (by-law 1109, s. 6.1.1, para. 15), and its life is capped: « any certificate of authorization issued for a temporary PODS-type container is valid for a maximum period of one (1) month » (by-law 1109, s. 6.4.1), against twelve months for other certificates. And zoning frames the storage of job-site materials: it « may begin at the earliest 7 days before construction work starts » and must be removed « within the 3 days following the end » of the work (by-law 1110, s. 5.2.2). On our side, the 50 $ Libération Express credit rewards the opposite: it applies when the dumpster is freed up within 48 hours of delivery, during the March-to-October high season. Plan for the delay: the town has 30 days from receipt of the last document, and recommends allowing 30 working days in high season.

Will the dumpster damage my asphalt driveway?

In Baie-D’Urfé driveways are hard-surfaced by by-law: « every curb cut must be covered with asphalt, concrete, concrete pavers, stone pavers or another hard-surfaced aggregate covering ». Every one of our dumpsters is delivered with the PROTEC-O-SOL system, built-in planks that spread the load and protect the surface. Nothing to supply, nothing extra to pay. Our drivers' tip for full protection: lay four flattened cardboard boxes, or a thin sheet of plywood, on the chosen spot before the truck arrives. One more reason to bother: redoing an impermeable surface of 50 m² or more requires a certificate of authorization from the town.

And elsewhere? We checked the permit rule in every city we serve, by-law in hand — because it is never the same from one city to the next.

What our drivers check before the box comes down

We deliver everywhere in Baie-D’Urfé, from Chemin Lakeshore to the industrial park, and the truck plans its move before it arrives. Here, the first thing our drivers look at is neither width nor slope: it is the culvert. The town's storm network « is served by open ditches », and « maintenance of open ditches and private driveway culverts is the responsibility of the owners ». Your driveway therefore crosses a buried pipe at least 30 cm in diameter, which the construction by-law requires to have « sufficient strength to bear the weight of the vehicles that will use it to reach the land served » — and, in high-density polyethylene, a minimum stiffness of 320 kPa. A loaded truck is the heaviest vehicle that will ever cross it, and the repair is at the owner's expense. That is why the truck's position gets settled on the phone rather than in the driveway.

The second question is a surprising one, and it is the right one: where is your septic tank, and where is your leaching field? The urban plan is blunt — « the residential part of Baie-D’Urfé developed with a water supply network but, for the most part, without sanitary sewer service ». Those individual systems are what imposed large lots and a density of 2.4 dwellings per hectare. The town's septic installation guide requires access covers to be « accessible at all times » and « never obstructed or buried », under a fine the town itself puts between 1,000 $ and 100,000 $; it adds that in an emergency « the town may request that your septic tank be pumped, without notice ». A full box sitting on a cover blocks that access; sitting on the leaching field, it compacts it. Many owners do not know where their field runs — the town itself admits the plan may not exist in its records and refers you to a land surveyor. We ask at booking; between the two of us, the right spot almost always turns up.

Then there is the spot itself. A Baie-D’Urfé curb cut is at most 6 metres wide at the street — 9 metres if the two permitted accesses are paired into a double driveway — only one is allowed on a lot less than 25 metres wide, a driveway slope may not exceed 8% and the surface must be hard: « asphalt, concrete, concrete pavers, stone pavers or another hard-surfaced aggregate covering ». That is exactly the surface the PROTEC-O-SOL system is built for, and it comes with every box — built-in planks that spread the load. Nothing to supply, nothing extra to pay. Trees, here, are a calculation: the construction by-law imposes an optimal protection zone whose radius equals the trunk diameter multiplied by 12, « the radius within which no traffic is allowed during the work ». A maple 0.40 metre across therefore commands 4.8 metres where nothing drives and nothing is set down. On a territory where most lots run 15,000 square feet and where canopy is a standard, that exercise is what decides the spot. Our drivers' tip for full protection: four flattened cardboard boxes or a thin sheet of plywood on the chosen spot, before the truck arrives.

Contractors and property managers in Baie-D’Urfé

For a town of fewer than 4,000 residents, the business segment is far bigger than it looks: one third of Baie-D’Urfé is industrial land. The land-use table in the urban plan gives 207.92 hectares to industry — 34.1% of the town's 610.20 hectares — against 298.60 hectares of single-family residential. The northern third, between Highways 20 and 40, was set aside for an industrial sector « isolated from the residential sector », where more than 80 companies have settled since 1970; the plan puts occupancy of the industrially zoned area at 85%, « which leaves room for some 10 additional companies ». On the residential side, the plan describes a sector « almost entirely built out » where « the trend is to buy smaller houses in order to demolish them » and rebuild larger: demolition-rebuild and major renovation, exactly the job site that needs a swap. Our rotations are built around that: 40 yard dumpsters for job sites that move, photo tracking of every delivery, SMS notifications on drop-off and pick-up, flexible pick-up as the work progresses. The 50 $ Libération Express credit rewards fast job sites: it applies when the dumpster is freed up within 48 hours of delivery, during the March-to-October high season.

Three local constraints we factor in by default. First the delay: installing a container requires a certificate of authorization here (by-law 1109, s. 6.1.1, para. 15), and the town has 30 days from receipt of the last document, and its certificates page recommends allowing « a minimum of 30 working days » in high season — « at least three months » if the project falls under site planning review and goes to the planning advisory committee. A dumpster is therefore not something you order for next week: that is the information that saves a schedule. Second, Sunday is closed: the nuisance by-law prohibits landscaping, construction, repair, alteration, renovation or demolition work « before 7 a.m. or after 8 p.m., Monday to Saturday, and all day on Sunday or any statutory holiday except in an emergency ». Third, the by-law names you: it is prohibited for « any construction contractor » to leave waste, refuse, wrapping paper, bags or containers of any kind on or around the lot. Add that the agglomeration drop-off centre charges a construction company 31 $ per cubic metre from the very first cubic metre, with no free allowance, and the rotation makes its own case. For a property manager, one boundary worth knowing: zoning reserves the waste container that stays in place — the one you screen off — to multi-family buildings of more than five dwellings and to commercial, industrial, public and recreational uses, 2.5 m maximum height, « surrounded by an architectural screen or an opaque fence at least 2 m high ». And for work touching public property, you file a municipal consent application with plans and technical specifications, which the town takes ten working days to review.

In winter the driveway stays free — temporary shelters are banned here

Elsewhere, the winter driveway is contested for six months a year by a temporary car shelter. Not here: the zoning by-law settles it in one sentence — « temporary car shelters, snow shelters, smoking shelters or other temporary shelters are prohibited throughout the territory of the Town of Baie d'Urfé ». All year, everywhere. That is a real, verifiable advantage for a January delivery: the spot where the box goes is not already taken by a tempo. The street never is — parking there is capped at four consecutive hours at all times, and winter adds a full ban « during any snowfall of 2.5 cm or more and for the 6 hours following the end of that snowfall ».

What does get contested is the snow. The town is categorical: snow from private property « must not, under any pretext, be dumped on the street », nor onto park land or a municipal path, and it « should preferably be kept within the limits of that property ». The nuisance by-law adds the ditch, where dumping snow, ice or materials is prohibited — and the ditch, the town reminds residents, is « the main component of the town's drainage ». From November to April your lot must therefore hold the snow, the bins and the dumpster, without blocking the ditch or the septic tank cover. Two details our drivers know: bins go out between 8 p.m. the night before and 7 a.m. on the day — garbage Wednesday, recycling and organics Tuesday — and the town asks you to make sure « no vehicle or object interferes with the mechanical lifting of the bin ». A box badly placed on a Tuesday morning costs you two collections at once. That gets planned when you book, and it costs nothing.

Why the drop-off centre is not enough in Baie-D’Urfé

Baie-D’Urfé has no drop-off centre. Its « Écocentres » page points to the Montréal agglomeration network and names the two nearest ones: Saint-Laurent, 3535 rue Sartelon, and LaSalle, 7272 rue Saint-Patrick (514 872-0384). Because Baie-D’Urfé is a related town of the agglomeration, its residents are admitted: the City of Montréal opens its drop-off centres to anyone who lives in the Montréal agglomeration, owns property there, or has a construction business based there. For a car trunk, those are the right addresses — at the other end of the island. Here is where the door closes.

The rule	What it means for a job site
12 m³ free per year, then 31 $ per m³	A single 20 yard dumpster holds 15.3 m³: on its own it exceeds a resident's whole annual allowance
A company pays from the first cubic metre	31 $ per m³ with no free allowance for construction companies, which must also be based in the agglomeration
Everything is unloaded by hand	« No mechanical means (e.g. a tipping body) may be used to unload materials », and « drop-off centre staff do not help with unloading »
Eleven metres of vehicle, no more	« The whole vehicle must measure less than 11 metres (36 feet) long » at Saint-Laurent as at LaSalle, with or without a trailer; under 8.3 m for a cube van. Using the scale costs 15.50 $
Closed Mondays, and Sundays too in winter	Saint-Laurent opens Tuesday to Sunday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., from April 15 to October 14; Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., from October 15 to April 14
The schedule the town publishes is out of date	Its page announces « every day » in summer and circulates a 2018 leaflet at 25 $ per m³; the current figures are montreal.ca's, updated July 9, 2026

At the curb, Baie-D’Urfé does better than many towns — but everything is capped. The bulky waste collection does accept construction residues: brick, mortar, stone residue, soil, asphalt, concrete, asphalt shingles, construction lumber, ceramic, gypsum, melamine, flat glass. Then comes the limit, which the town writes in capitals: « The number of items is limited to TEN per household. Each item must not weigh more than 100 kg (220 lb) and must not exceed 1.8 m x 1.2 m (6 ft x 4 ft). » And the collection runs only on the second Monday of the month, from mid-April to mid-November. The special collection, on call on Mondays with at least three days' notice at 514 457-2877, is billed under the fee by-law at « a minimum of 70.00 $ per hour for a special pick-up by truck and a minimum of 50.00 $ per hour for a special pick-up by loader ». A demolished bathroom, a redone roof or an emptied basement blows past that on the first trip — and the construction by-law requires construction debris to be « placed in containers provided for that purpose ». The town draws the conclusion itself, in its own FAQ: « For large renovation projects, renting a waste dumpster is recommended. »
