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

Yes as soon as the dumpster touches the public roadway, no if it stays entirely on your own land. Dumpsters are named outright in the official list of installations subject to the temporary public-domain occupancy permit, Saint-Laurent tab. Call us before you apply: in plenty of cases a back yard, or a truck waiting on site while you load, is all it takes.

$60 in issuing fees, then $57 per day to occupy the street or the sidewalk up to 49 m² — $65 per day in a lane or behind the sidewalk. Five days in front of a house therefore means $345 in municipal fees, on top of the rental. The form lives online at montreal.ca, and the borough announces 5 business days of processing.

Yes, at 3535 rue Sartelon (514 872-0384), and it is one of only two sites in the Montreal network where visits are unlimited — elsewhere the cap is 15 per year. Mind the hours: closed every Monday; in the warm season the gate is open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday; from October 15 to April 14 it tightens to 10 a.m.–6 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday.

Yes for mattresses and box springs: it is the only ecocentre in the Montreal network that recycles them. And in this borough, upholstered furniture is accepted at the bulky-item collection — refused elsewhere — provided you set it out in a separate pile. For a whole house to empty, the volume passes the 5 m³ the collection accepts per address in a hurry.

Best avoided the moment the snow starts. During loading operations, street parking is prohibited by temporary signage, and in Saint-Laurent the signs go up during the work shift before the ban, sometimes only four hours ahead. Equipment left there gets in the way of the operation and the city can have it removed: from December to March, plan the dumpster on private land.

Yes, but at its own cost and by hand. Unlike the Longueuil agglomeration, Montreal admits construction businesses based on the island, at $31 per cubic metre of C&D debris, occupancy certificate in hand — and ecocentre staff do not help with the unloading. The equivalent of a 20-yard dumpster, or 15.3 m³, works out to roughly $474 in fees, before the round trips and the labour hours.

Count on a strip 8 feet wide and 14 feet long for the 10 or the 20-yard, 20 feet for the 40 — and the truck needs its own clear approach for the lift. A 20-yard takes up about the footprint of a Dodge Caravan; the 10-yard is that same footprint at a lower height — handy for loading over the side, useless for freeing up room in a short driveway, which is a common one here.
