10, 20 and 40 Cubic Yard
Dumpster Rental in Saint-Lin–Laurentides

Not for the dumpster itself, if it sits entirely on your land — and here that is not an inference, it is written down. Section 21 of by-law 777-2024 places “temporary construction or elements” among the works requiring neither permit nor certificate, and the waste container is classed in that chapter of the zoning by-law. No certificate on the closed list in section 44 covers it, and the fee by-law sets no charge. One caveat, though: “no permit” does not mean “no conditions”. Section 80 of the zoning by-law sets the set-backs — 2 m in the front yard, 1 m at the sides and rear — a maximum of one dumpster per lot, the distance from the visibility triangle and from fire hydrants, and a duration tied to the work permit. The job site itself almost always needs a permit: there is no dollar threshold in Saint-Lin–Laurentides. In doubt about your case? Sustainable planning department, 450 439-3130.

Yes — rare enough to be worth saying — but on a permit, and the permit is earned. Section 8 of by-law 833-2025 prohibits parking “a waste dumpster” on a public road “except in conformity with a temporary public-domain occupancy permit”, and that permit names containers (by-law 753-2023, s. 12 d). The fee published in schedule A of fee by-law 841-2025 is $20.00 per day for 0 to 49 m² of occupied area and $30.00 per day from 50 m² up, taxes and administration charges included. But you must provide, with the application, proof of liability insurance of at least $2,000,000 kept in force throughout the occupancy, answer for all damage, restore the site without delay, and accept that the town may revoke the authorization at any time without paying damages. No refund if you finish early. One last trap: the strip of grass in front of your house is part of the public domain too.

One at a time per lot: the zoning by-law writes “Maximum number 1” at section 80. As for duration, the by-law ties the container to the work permit — it is allowed “for the period of validity of the permit”, no more than 15 days before work starts and no more than 15 days after it ends, and it “must be removed when work is interrupted for more than 1 month”. A building permit lasts 12 months, renewable once. In practice that means two things for your job site: if you need two sizes, we run them one after the other rather than side by side; and if the work stops for more than a month, we come and get the box and bring it back when you restart. One call to 514 708-2424 is enough to set the rotation.

Almost: construction by-law 779-2024 leaves it two places, and two only. Section 35 states that “construction debris or waste must be placed in containers provided for that purpose or an area laid out for that purpose on the lot” and that it “must be removed as soon as the work ends or the permit expires”. Section 33 adds that “every construction site must, at all times, be clean and well kept”, and section 37 requires the lot to be restored to a clean state within 14 days of the end of the work. In parallel, nuisance by-law 831-2025 makes any deposit of “waste, scrap metal or any other debris of any nature whatsoever” on a property an offence carrying $300 to $600, doubled for a corporation and doubled on a repeat offence. So the dumpster is not a convenience in Saint-Lin–Laurentides: it is the simplest way to be compliant.

For a car trunk, yes. For a job site, no — and it is the town's own figures that say so. The drop-off centre at 217 rue Industrielle is reserved for residents, registration mandatory, and takes free of charge only 2 cubic metres per address per year, counted from January 1; beyond that, the fee by-law sets $25.00 per half cubic metre, rounded up to the next half cubic metre. Only cars, vans and non-commercial pickups are admitted, with at most a 3.05 m trailer — “dump trailers and dump trucks have no access to the drop-off centre” — and everything comes out by hand, tipping bodies being prohibited. The published schedule runs April 20 to October 31, Tuesday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., last entries 15 minutes before closing; the winter schedule is to be checked at 311 or 450 439-3130. Compare: a 10 yard box holds 7.6 m³, a 20 yard 15.3 m³, a 40 yard 30.6 m³.

No, and for once the text leaves no room. Section 12 of by-law 812-2025 states that “ICI users and non-profits […] are not among the eligible users of this service” and that their materials “will not be accepted by the person in charge of the drop-off centre, whatever their origin”. Section 8 g) specifies that “ICI” means institutions, businesses and industries, adding “the agricultural industry as well as contractors”. The only opening is for a contractor acting “as a carrier”: the eligible user must then be physically present at the drop-off. The town owns the intent, written on its own page: the rates are being adjusted to “encourage use by citizens rather than by contractors”. For a job site, the way through is the dumpster.

It is the question we ask ourselves in Saint-Lin–Laurentides, because a good share of the territory has no water main, no sewer and no curb: the driveway crosses a ditch on a culvert. By-law 704-2022 sets its geometry — 9 to 12.2 metres long, with a pipe at least 60 cm in diameter (s. 28 and 31) — and the town reminds owners that the abutting owner is “responsible for the upkeep and good condition of the pipes, ditch closures and bridge ends” in front of their land. In other words, a culvert caved in by a loaded truck is the owner's bill. This is not an obstacle, it is information: tell us when you book, with the culvert's rough age if you know it, and our drivers pick the drop point accordingly — often the top of the driveway rather than the bottom.
