10, 20 and 40 Cubic Yard
Dumpster Rental in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu

Not in a private driveway — no municipal by-law requires one — but yes once it crosses onto the street, the sidewalk or the grassy strip: by-law 1885 then requires an authorization from the Service des travaux publics (450 357-2238), with a plan and proof of insurance. Our advice: aim for the driveway — we help you measure it over the phone.

The city publishes no fee explicitly tied to dumpsters: the fee by-law does provide a charge for using the public domain, but whether it applies to a dumpster gets confirmed with the Service des travaux publics (450 357-2238). What is certain: without authorization, the fine is $500 for an individual and $1,000 for a business (by-law 1885, s. 96).

Yes, two: Iberville (825, rue Lucien-Beaudin, closed Wednesdays and Thursdays) and Saint-Luc (950, rue Gaudette, closed Mondays), run by Compo-Haut-Richelieu. Each address is entitled to 3 free accesses of 75 cu ft per calendar year, and closing time is when unloading has to be finished.

Yes: by-law 0278 bans trucks of 4,500 kg and over from several hundred streets in the city, but it expressly exempts local delivery — picking up or dropping off goods, providing a service. Dropping off or collecting your dumpster falls squarely within that exception, on both banks of the Richelieu.

Between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekdays, and between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekends: that is the safe window of the noise by-law, whose section 11 covers loading and unloading operations liable to disturb the neighbourhood outside those hours. Our routes keep to it as a matter of course.

The 20-yard in most cases: about the size of a Dodge Caravan — room for the van means room for the dumpster. The 10-yard amounts to a 20 at half fill: same footprint, not as tall, handy on the narrow lots of the older sectors. The 40-yard is kept for big job sites and full cleanouts.

Yes, the soil-rocks-sod dumpster is built for exactly that — and it matters here, since the Compo-Haut-Richelieu ecocentres refuse sand, soil and peat from every user. One caution: that dumpster takes only that material, and any mixing brings sorting fees.
