10, 20 and 40 Cubic Yard
Dumpster Rental in Côte-Saint-Luc

In your private driveway: no by-law found requires one. We word it carefully because the conclusion comes from an absence of provision, verified on August 19, 2026 through the complete texts of by-laws 2593 (construction), 2470 (nuisances), 2537 (residual materials) and 2217 (zoning) — and the 2026 fee schedule sets no such charge. On the street or sidewalk: yes, a permit is mandatory, and the City says so itself, in writing, in its FAQ. The job site almost always needs its own permit — with no dollar threshold: the nature of the work decides. In doubt? Urban Planning Department, 514 485-6800.

It is possible, but it is a real permit and a real budget. The municipal FAQ puts it in plain words: a permit from the city is required prior to placing a container on a city street or sidewalk, and a street rental permit is sometimes required as well. That permit is priced by the lane and by the day: $150 to $2,000 per day depending on the number of lanes and the street, plus $50 per day if the sidewalk is obstructed, plus a $75 application fee — with trestles by day, reflective lights at night, one sidewalk always clear and a mandatory insurance policy. Seven days on a residential street: roughly $775 in municipal fees before the box is even rented. Our answer: the private driveway, where none of that applies.

Yes — it is written in construction by-law 2593, section 4.1.5: “For any construction or demolition project, the owner or the work executor must be equipped with a container to collect debris resulting from construction or demolition works.” The box must be emptied regularly, covered if the designated official deems it necessary, and all job-site equipment must be removed within 30 days of the end of the works. By-law 2537 completes the picture: between collections, construction debris from residential buildings is kept inside the buildings (s. 17), and accumulation on a lot is a nuisance removed at the owner's expense (s. 43). So the dumpster is not a convenience here: it is what makes the job site compliant.

No — and it is THE local fact to know before planning: exterior construction, demolition or renovation work is prohibited on Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, and allowed on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. only (by-law 2470, s. 12.3; excavation follows the same rule at s. 12.2). No other city we serve is this strict. Dumpster delivery and swap follow the same calendar as the job site: everything gets planned Monday to Friday, and we build the rotation accordingly — the box arrives before the weekend if you want to sort, and leaves the following week.

For a car trunk, yes — and it is free: Côte-Saint-Luc has no ecocentre of its own, but its residents use Montreal's at no charge, the two nearest being Côte-des-Neiges and LaSalle, with your driver's licence as proof of residence. For a job site, the numbers do not add up: you haul everything yourself in a private vehicle, “in reasonable quantities”; construction debris is capped at 15 visits a year (unlimited at LaSalle) and 12 m³ free per year, then $31 per m³ — while a single 20 yard box already holds 15.3 m³. Both ecocentres close on Mondays, and also on Sundays from October 15 to April 14. And the municipal drop-off at 7001 Mackle Rd. no longer accepts construction debris. Benchmarks: 10 yards = 7.6 m³, 20 yards = 15.3 m³, 40 yards = 30.6 m³.

Only through a narrow door: construction contractors and self-employed workers get access only if the business is domiciled in the agglomeration or if they are accompanied by the owner whose property the work was done on — and construction materials are billed by the cubic metre. At job-site scale, the municipal route closes anyway: the black bin is limited to a single 25 kg bin, the bulky waste collection refuses “any other construction waste”, and the construction by-law requires a container on every job site (by-law 2593, s. 4.1.5). Our 40 yard boxes run in rotation, with photo tracking and pickups planned Monday to Friday — and the $50 Libération Express credit applies when the box is freed up within 48 hours, from March to October.

It is the right question in a city where the driveway is at most 6.4 m wide and where the City protects its trees right into your driveway's radius — asphalt must stay 0.91 m from the trunk of a City tree, and no driveway widening may require its removal without special permission from Council (zoning 2217, s. 7-2-2 and 7-2-3). Every one of our dumpsters is delivered with the PROTEC-O-SOL system, built-in planks that spread the load and protect asphalt and pavers alike. 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.
