10, 20 and 40 Cubic Yard
Dumpster Rental in Marieville

No — and for once the answer is written down rather than inferred from silence. The permit table in by-law 1069-05 places the line “waste container”, under the heading “accessory equipment”, in the AUCUN column — neither a permit nor a certificate of authorization; fee by-law 1301-26, updated April 8, 2026, repeats exactly the same line in the same column. The construction by-law confirms it by naming the container among what a building permit allows on site, to be removed “within 10 days following the end of the work” (s. 49). Two caveats: the job site itself often needs its own permit, and in the sectors subject to site planning review — downtown, the heritage sector, rue Claude-De Ramezay, rue Edmond-Guillet — by-law 1197-18 names the waste container among accessory equipment requiring approval. Planning and environment department: 450 460-4444, extension 291.

Not for a simple cleanout. The traffic by-law names the container and prohibits it on streets and public roads, “except for delivery purposes or for carrying out work” (by-law 1227-21, s. 19; $45 fine). In front of a job site occupancy becomes possible, but with numbers attached: at most one third of the road width, 1.8 metres in height maximum, never wider than the lot frontage, without hindering drainage, with signal lights lit from sunset to sunrise, and everything removed within 3 days (zoning, s. 134). Two other texts nonetheless add an authorization: the construction by-law requires “the written authorization of the designated officer” to store material on public property (s. 52), and the nuisance by-law tolerates equipment in a public place only for work “authorized by the municipality” (s. 32). We do not settle that in the town's place: call 450 460-4444 before any drop-off on the street. In your driveway, on the other hand, there is nothing to apply for.

For a car trunk, yes. For a job site, the arithmetic settles it. A “counted visit” is worth, according to the regional county, “a volume equivalent to a trailer 4 feet X 8 feet X 16 inches high or less”, that is roughly 1.6 cubic yards; every address gets six free counted visits per calendar year, then fees per additional visit ($40 according to the regional county on August 19, 2026). The year's six visits therefore come to about 9.5 cubic yards — less than a single 10 yard dumpster. Add that the user “must sort, deposit and unload their materials themselves”, that staff “are not required to sort and unload”, that a trailer's tipping mechanism may not be used, that vehicles of 4,500 kg GVWR and over are banned from the site, and that the door is open only Wednesday to Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in summer, Thursday to Saturday in winter.

Yes, and that is a real difference from several towns in the region. Businesses based in the Rouville regional county are admitted: “the driver must have their own driver's licence and proof of the company”, or a “service account authenticating the location of the place of business”. The limits stay the same: six free counted visits per address per year, fees beyond that, no vehicle of 4,500 kg GVWR and over, no heavy machinery or truck trailer, no tipping mechanism, no crushing or dismantling on site — and, for a breach, expulsion followed by a ban of 3 months, 6 months, a year. One discrepancy to know: the town presents the drop-off centre as a free depot for dry materials, while by-law 324-21 of the regional county counts those drop-offs and charges beyond six visits. The by-law prevails, but Info-collectes confirms it at 450 693-2326.

On a hard, clear surface, away from the lines. Zoning states that a waste container “must rest on a surface of crushed stone, concrete or asphalt”, at least 1 metre from the lot lines — 2 metres from the front line where it is allowed in the front yard — and 1 metre from any accessory building or equipment, the surrounding area having to allow “access at all times and in all seasons” for mechanical emptying. Add the free metre the regional county requires around collection bins and the 1.8 metre clearance from a fire hydrant. On the ground, things are simpler here than elsewhere: Marieville is “a relatively constant plain with no notable change in elevation”, so no manoeuvring on a slope. What we ask when you book is the width of the driveway — at most 8 metres for a single-family home — and whether you are inside the urban perimeter or out on a rang, where the driveway often crosses a ditch.

It is the question we hear most, and it makes sense here: inside the urbanization perimeter, zoning allows only asphalt, concrete, paving stone, cellular paving and “any other high-albedo surface” for an access lane or parking area, with a two-track strip of slabs or pavers permitted for single-family homes. 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.

They come in to deliver, then leave — the by-law allows them nothing else. By-law 1144-11, approved by the ministry of transport, bans trucks of 4,500 kg GVWR and over from more than 110 streets, roads and rangs in Marieville, which is to say nearly the entire residential fabric, and makes an exception only for local delivery: “pick up or deliver a good; provide a service; carry out work”. The urban plan confirms that “Highway 10 is the only transit route accessible to heavy vehicles” and that trucking is allowed on Routes 112 and 227 only with restrictions. So our runs go by Route 112, Route 227 or Highway 10 as far as possible, then down your street, once in and once out. Enforcement rests with the Sûreté du Québec: Marieville has no municipal police force.
