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

Not for the dumpster itself, if it sits entirely on your land. Better still: for a job covered by a permit, construction by-law 0354-000 allows it expressly in section 46 — “Temporary waste containers are permitted in all yards, for the duration of the permit's validity.” For a simple clear-out with no work, the conclusion comes from an absence of provision: the list of certificates of authorization in by-law 0355-000 is closed and covers no such case, and schedule 19 of fee by-law 0774-000 sets no charge for it. The job site, however, often does need a permit — not from a dollar amount, but according to the nature of the work. In doubt? Centrale du citoyen, 450 569-5000, Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

It is possible in Saint-Jérôme — but only if you have no room on your own land, and the city is the one who writes it: “Temporary occupancy of public property may be authorized only if the applicant demonstrates that they do not have sufficient space on their private property for the intended occupancy” (by-law 0366-000, s. 16, which names containers). You then need a certificate of authorization from the planning and sustainable development department, photos of the site beforehand, a scale plan, liability insurance of at least $3,000,000, a security deposit of at least $500 and flashing lights from sunset to sunrise. The “Emprise de rue” page posts $10 per parking space per day, minimum $50 — have it confirmed at 450 569-5000, as the city publishes more than one grid — and notes that “a waste container takes up the space of two (2) parking spaces”. More often than not, the driveway is simpler, faster, and free of municipal fees.

Yes, and section 46 of construction by-law 0354-000 says so in plain words: it is prohibited “to burn or bury unused debris or materials on site”, and those materials “must be stored in appropriate containers or transported to an authorized site or a material recycling site within 30 days following the end of the work”. Nuisance by-law 0209-000 adds in section 3 that leaving “demolition debris” or “waste” on or in any building “constitutes a nuisance and is prohibited”, and the city's “Propreté” page lists demolition or construction debris among the prohibited undesirable items. The fine starts at $300 for an individual and $500 for a corporation, and each day counts as a separate offence.

A new requirement, and a distinctly Saint-Jérôme one. Since June 17, 2026, section 8.2.1 of by-law 0887-000 requires “any residential, institutional, commercial or industrial owner or any contractor filing an application for a construction, renovation or demolition permit” to complete a CRD waste management plan supplied by the city, to be sent in within 60 days of receiving the permit. Section 8.2.4 lets the city require, at any time, proof of disposal or recovery — “invoices, receipts, transport manifests, weigh tickets, etc.” — and inspect the job site. A rented dumpster leaves a named invoice, a job-site address, a date and a destination: useful proof to keep, even though the city does not name it as mandatory. For the exact form and the steps to follow, call the Centrale du citoyen at 450 569-5000.

For a car trunk, yes — and it takes more than most: asphalt, asphalt shingle, concrete, wood, brick, gypsum and composite melamine all go through. For a job site, no. A resident gets 2 m³ free per year, an annual total and not per visit, then pays $50 per cubic metre, with a 0.5 m³ minimum per visit. Soil and gravel are refused at every drop-off centre in the regional county, as are branches, stumps and logs. “Unloading the materials is your responsibility”, the holder of the address must be present at drop-off, and the site closes Sunday and Monday year-round, opening 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with a last entry at 4:15 p.m. The arithmetic is quick: a 10-yard box holds 7.6 m³, a 20 yard 15.3 m³, a 40 yard 30.6 m³.

No, and the city writes it in capitals: “NO CRD WASTE from a construction, renovation or demolition contractor will be accepted.” Accepted debris “must come only from renovations carried out by residents”, ID in hand. No contractor rate appears anywhere else in the regional county's fee grid: here there is no ambiguity to untangle. By-law 0887-000 states in section 8.2 that beyond one cubic metre dry materials go to the drop-off centre “or are sent to a private dry materials management service”, and section 2.2.1 adds that one may “award a contract to a company by one's own means, at one's own expense”. That is exactly the service we provide.

Not since August 2024 if the building has 13 units or more. By-law 0887-000, s. 6.2, then requires the owner to sign a service agreement with the operator of the drop-off centre and set aside space on private land, “or arrange private collection”. For other buildings the monthly bulky waste collection is still offered, but it refuses construction, renovation and demolition waste by name, along with doors and windows, mirrors and any material over 1 m³, with a maximum of 6 items or bundles totalling 2 m³ per dwelling, 2.5 m long and 100 kg per piece. Clearing out a unit or renovating a block passes those limits on day one: it is a dumpster, or a service agreement.

Not at the head of the driveway. Snow-clearing by-law 0465-000, section 4, allows “city employees or the contractors it has retained” to “throw, blow or place the snow covering a public road onto an adjoining private lot”: the front strip of your land receives the street's snow. The street itself is closed overnight, from midnight to 7 a.m., from November 15 to April 1. And the temporary car shelter, allowed from October 15 to April 15, already takes up the parking area or the access lane. So we choose the winter spot together when you book — allowing for your bins, which the by-law wants “outside the snow-clearing zone” and never in the street or on the sidewalk.

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. In Saint-Jérôme the question comes in two forms. In urban neighbourhoods zoning requires asphalt, concrete, concrete pavers, grass-celled concrete pavers or reinforced turf: the worry is a mark on the surface, and our drivers' tip is to lay four flattened cardboard boxes, or a thin sheet of plywood, on the chosen spot before the truck arrives. In the peri-urban residential, rural agricultural, rural residential, village mixed and village residential designations, where gravel is allowed, the worry becomes ruts and bearing capacity at spring thaw: tell us when you book and the truck goes about it differently.
