Dumpster rental in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois

Choose the right type of dumpster

Size is not the whole story: dumpsters are rented by material type. Each type goes to a different disposal facility — that is why mixed loads bring extra fees. One choice to make, five options:

Dry materials (mixed)

10, 20 and 40 cubic yards

The do-it-all dumpster: wood, drywall, metal, shingles, furniture — mixed, no problem.

Soil, rocks and sod only

20 yard — the only size offered

Excavation, grading, sod removal — soil, rocks and sod, nothing else.

Concrete only

20 yard — the only size offered

Walkways, slabs, foundations — broken concrete, nothing else.

Bricks and mortar only

20 yard — the only size offered

Walls, chimneys, masonry facing — bricks and mortar, nothing else.

Asphalt only

20 yard — the only size offered

Old torn-up paving, curb pieces — asphalt, nothing else.

Why it matters. A dumpster rented for concrete that shows up at the disposal facility with wood in it is refused at the concrete rate: the sorting gets billed back. If you have several types of materials, say so in the form or at 514 708-2424 — we point you to the right type, or to two dumpsters when that costs less than sorting fees.

Strictly refused, in every dumpster

Tires

Paint and solvents refused in every dumpster

Paint, solvents, oils

Propane, aerosols, acids

Frequently asked questions — Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois

Do I need a permit to place a dumpster in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois?

Not for the dumpster itself, if it sits entirely on your land for the duration of a job. We word it carefully because the conclusion comes from an absence of provision: the list of certificates of authorization in by-law 403 is closed — twenty-two entries — and none covers a temporary dumpster; in the by-laws published by the municipality, the word « conteneur » appears only in section 3.10 of the construction by-law, and it is there to require one. The job site, however, often does need a certificate: from 500 $ of repair or renovation work, and regardless of cost for exterior cladding, an opening, a backfill, a tree cutting or a culvert. In doubt about your case? The planning inspector answers at 450 347-0066, extension 23, Tuesday and Thursday by appointment.

Can I have the dumpster placed on the street in front of my house?

No, and in Sabrevois it is not even a parking question. Construction by-law 404 states in section 3.7 that « using the public road to deposit materials is not authorized », and nuisance by-law 500 prohibits depositing refuse, soil, sand, rock or gravel « in the streets, lanes, watercourses, parks, squares or public ditches » of the municipality. The only certificate by-law 403 provides for the public road covers occupancy « on a permanent basis »: no temporary public-domain occupancy procedure exists here, so there is nothing to apply for. The spot is in your driveway or on your lot — that is where we deliver.

Is it true that demolition debris must be in a dumpster?

Yes, and it is written in plain terms in section 3.10 of construction by-law 404: « Demolition materials and debris must be placed in a container and hauled to an authorized landfill site. » The same section forbids burning them on site and, « in no case », burying them there; section 3.9 adds that the lot must be cleared, levelled and restored to a clean state within fifteen days of the end of the work. Nuisance by-law 500 further makes demolition materials left on a lot a prohibited nuisance, naming « all pieces of wood other than firewood ». In Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois the dumpster is not a convenience: it is what makes a demolition compliant.

How far ahead should I apply for the permit?

Three weeks, and the municipality says so itself: its fact sheet asks that the application be made to the inspector « at least 3 weeks before » work begins. By-law 403 gives the inspector thirty days to issue a permit, a period that starts only once every document has been supplied, and the municipal guide aims for « less than two weeks » where possible. The real bottleneck is elsewhere: the municipal inspection office is open only Tuesday and Thursday, by appointment, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The dumpster books far faster than that — but it is better to set the delivery by the permit date than the other way round.

Can the drop-off centre replace a dumpster?

You would need one first: there is no drop-off centre in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois. The three open to you are in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu — 825 rue Lucien-Beaudin in Iberville, and 950 rue Gaudette in Saint-Luc — and in Lacolle, 8 rue du Parc-Industriel, which opens only Friday and Saturday. Then the quota: three free visits per calendar year per address, of 0 to 75 cu. ft. each, so 225 cu. ft. — about 8.3 cubic yards, less than a single 10 yard dumpster (270 cu. ft.). Past those three visits, construction materials cost 50 $ per 75 cu. ft. to the end of the year. Concrete, asphalt, brick and stone are capped at 75 cu. ft. a visit with no tier above, and soil, peat and sand are refused from everyone. For a car trunk the drop-off centre is the right address; for a job site, no.

My house is in the floodplain: does that change anything?

Not for the dumpster, but a great deal for the job — and close to half the houses are concerned: the urban plan counts 357 principal residential buildings in the Richelieu floodplain, 45.8% of all dwellings in the municipality, spread over twelve sectors along the river, where more than 750 people live, on the urban plan's 2005 figures. In the high-velocity zone, zoning prohibits « all constructions, all works and undertakings » except a closed list — which includes precisely keeping the land in good order and repairing, modernizing or demolishing existing constructions, provided the area exposed to flooding is not increased. Refurbishment is therefore what is allowed; enlargement is not. Note as well: throughout the floodplain « building a cellar or a basement is prohibited », and a house with no basement produces fewer scraps — the 10 yard is often the right size.

Can the truck cross my driveway culvert?

That is the number one ground question here, and we never settle it in one word. The territory is flat — the urban plan says « with no change in elevation whatsoever » — so slope is not the problem; the ditch is. Many Sabrevois driveways cross a ditch on a culvert, and no municipal document publishes the allowable load of a private driveway culvert. So we never promise that a loaded truck will cross yours: we look at the structure together when you book, and there is almost always a safer position, even if it means setting the box at the edge of the driveway rather than at the far end. If real doubt remains, the public works officer can be reached at 450 347-0066.

Where do I put the dumpster in winter, if the municipal blower may blow onto my land?

Set back from the street line, and decided when you book. Snow by-law 183-1 says it in section 5: the Municipality, its employees and the firms it retains « may throw, blow or deposit snow covering a public road or sidewalk onto adjoining private land », and it is up to the owner to protect what stands there with snow fencing or geotextiles. Add to that the ban on parking on the public road from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. between November 15 and April 1, the temporary car shelter — one per lot, October 15 to April 15, two metres from the front setback — which takes exactly the spot in question, and the ban on pushing snow toward the street: « under no consideration ». Damage caused by municipal operations is claimed at the town hall until May 15.

What our drivers check before the box comes down

We deliver everywhere in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois: in the village, where Route 133 meets Rang du Bord de l'eau and Rang Saint-Louis, along Rang Grand Sabrevois and Rang Petit Sabrevois, on Montée Bertrand and Montée Meunier, and down to the far end of the numbered avenues that run toward the Richelieu. One question never comes up here, and that is rare: slope. The urban plan is blunt — « the territory is flat, with no change in elevation whatsoever ». What replaces it is the ditch. Driveways here cross ditches on culverts, so much so that the municipality lists « channelling a municipal road ditch / installing a culvert » among its certificates of authorization, and its snow by-law forbids blowing snow from private land « on either side of driveway culverts ». A driveway culvert is not built for a loaded straight truck, and no municipal document publishes its allowable load: that is what our drivers go over with you when you book, never once the truck is committed.

Room, on the other hand, there is. Off the water and sewer network, the minimum lot is 3,000 m² with 50 metres of frontage, and 4,000 m² for a waterfront lot; in the village, served by water and sewer only since the summer of 2005, it drops to 500 m² and 18 metres. Zoning sets parking stalls of 5.5 m by 2.6 m and a drive aisle of at least 3 metres, but no municipal standard for driveway width or slope was found — we word it that way because it is an absence of text, not a permission. A 20 yard box, roughly the size of a Dodge Caravan, fits in a concession-road driveway without trapping the car; the 10 yard equals a 20 yard filled halfway: same footprint, simply lower. Two reservations all the same. On a corner lot, the sight triangle must stay clear of anything taller than 0.70 metre — 6 metres per side where the street right-of-way is 15 metres or less, 9 metres beyond — and a 10 yard box is well over that height. And where there is neither sidewalk nor curb to tell you where private land ends, the fence is the marker: it stands at least 0.60 metre back from the street right-of-way.

The third thing is the housing stock, and the size it calls for. The 2006 assessment roll, the last one published in the urban plan, counted 640 single-family homes, 91 cottages and 15 mobile homes among 795 properties: one- and two-storey bungalows and cottages in the village, farmhouses along the rangs, riverside cottages. A second survey, this one from 2005, says where those houses are: 357 principal residential buildings sit in the Richelieu floodplain, 45.8% of all dwellings in the municipality. In that floodplain, zoning states that « building a cellar or a basement is prohibited », crawl spaces being capped at 1.20 m. A house with no basement empties out fewer scraps than a suburban one: in those sectors the 10 yard often does what the 20 would do elsewhere. On a gravel driveway out on the rangs as on the village asphalt, the PROTEC-O-SOL system comes with every box — built-in planks that spread the load. Nothing to supply, nothing extra to pay. Our drivers' tip for full protection: four flattened cardboard boxes or a thin sheet of plywood on the chosen spot, before the truck arrives.

Contractors, farms and property managers in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois

Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois has no industrial park — its urban plan says so in plain words — and no sand or gravel pit in operation. What it has is a territory of 48.6 km², 98.87% of it inside the agricultural zone designated by order in council, for 2,214 residents according to the 2025 municipal fact sheet; close to thirty livestock farms and seventeen field-crop farms as of the 2005 survey; and, in that same inventory, a string of businesses along Route 133 — garages, antique dealers, flea markets, a masonry company, a welding shop, a print shop, an urban-furniture maker, an auto-parts recycler, two farm machinery dealers in the village core and a vineyard on Rang Grand Sabrevois. Our rotations are built around that: 40 yard dumpsters for job sites that move, photo tracking of every delivery, SMS notifications on drop-off and pick-up, flexible pick-up as the work progresses. The 50 $ Libération Express credit rewards fast job sites: it applies when the dumpster is freed up within 48 hours of delivery, during the March-to-October high season.

Three local details we factor in by default. The first is the road. Route 133 is the only provincial transport ministry road on the territory, posted at 90 km/h alongside residential sectors and described by the urban plan as a corridor exposed to more than 55 dBA, with « heavy traffic that has grown over the years »; everything else — rangs, montées and the 73 local streets and avenues listed in the 2007 plan — is municipal, and Rue Ducharme, Rue Jean-Louis, Rue Jetté and part of Rue Lafrance are private streets, where truck access and liability for damage are settled with the owner, not with the municipality. The second is noise: by-law RM-420 forbids driving « with a load of scrap iron, metal articles or other similar objects causing an intense noise », and letting a stationary engine run at a speed that disturbs public peace. An empty steel box on a rough concession road is exactly what the text targets: our chains are tight and the lift is done without lingering. In exchange, the work window is wide — 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, no reduced schedule having been found for Saturdays, Sundays or holidays. The third is for property managers: buildings with more than five dwellings must use a shared container supplied by Compo-Haut-Richelieu, its size and location set by that mandatary, with at least three feet of clearance on each side — a job-site dumpster stays your own business.

In winter, the municipal blower is allowed onto your land

Here winter does not close the street at all times the way Rosemère does: parking on the public road is prohibited between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., from November 15 to April 1 inclusive, across the whole territory, and a peace officer may have a vehicle moved at its owner's expense during snow removal. But that is not the rule that matters most in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois. The one that matters is section 5 of the snow-clearing by-law: the Municipality, its employees and the firms it retains « may throw, blow or deposit snow covering a public road or sidewalk onto adjoining private land ». It is then up to the owner to « take the necessary precautions » and to install « snow fencing, geotextiles or any other sufficiently sturdy material » to protect trees, shrubs, flower beds, mailboxes and decorative fences. In other words: a box left near the street line between December and March will be buried, and the Municipality is entitled to bury it. We set it back, and we plan for it to come out less easily.

The rest of the driveway fills up fast. A temporary car shelter is allowed from October 15 of one year to April 15 of the next, one per lot, made of movable translucent sheets or panels, with a front setback of at least two metres — and it needs no permit. The temporary entrance vestibule follows the same dates and never comes within one metre of a lot line or of the street. Add the measured clearances: nothing within two metres of a fire hydrant, no snow piled within two metres beneath a 0 to 750 volt conductor, stakes and markers set 60 centimetres inside the property lines. And the snow does not go back toward the street: « under no consideration », the by-law says, knowing that an owner who hires a snow contractor is « solely responsible for the tickets » that contractor may incur — though a first registered-mail warning comes before the ticket, once per season. Compo applies the same reasoning to bins: « Blowing snow, freezing rain? Give your bin the day off! If you can skip a collection, leave your bin somewhere safe, away from the road, the ditches and the snow-clearing equipment. » Damage caused by municipal snow-clearing operations is claimed at the town hall until May 15 each year.

Why the drop-off centre is not enough in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois

There is no drop-off centre in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois. The municipality runs no waste service of its own: everything goes through the Haut-Richelieu regional county and its mandatary Compo-Haut-Richelieu inc. (450 347-0299), under regional by-law 549, adopted October 13, 2021 and promulgated here on October 27, 2021. The three drop-off centres open to Sabrevois residents are all elsewhere: two in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu — Iberville, 825 rue Lucien-Beaudin, and Saint-Luc, 950 rue Gaudette — and one in Lacolle, 8 rue du Parc-Industriel. The Commission de toponymie places the village « 10 km south of Iberville »; no official source publishes a road distance, and we do not invent one. For a car trunk, it is the right address. Here is where the door closes.

The rule	What it means for a job site
3 free visits of 75 cu. ft. a year	Per address and per calendar year — 225 cu. ft. in all, about 8.3 cubic yards: less than a single 10 yard dumpster (270 cu. ft.), and it takes three trips to use them up
After that, 50 $ per 75 cu. ft.	The charge runs to the end of the calendar year for construction materials (Compo price list updated May 21, 2026)
Concrete, asphalt, brick and stone: 75 cu. ft. a visit, full stop	No tier above it, for residents and contractors alike — about 2.8 cubic yards. Tearing out a concrete patio does not go through the drop-off centre
Soil, peat and sand refused	At any rate and from anyone, along with railway ties
Lacolle opens only two days a week	Friday 8 a.m.-4 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m.-4 p.m.; Iberville closes Wednesday and Thursday, Saint-Luc closes Monday, and all three close Sunday (hours as of August 20, 2026; Lacolle changes its hours in winter)
Six-wheel and larger dump trucks are not admitted	And you must present yourself in person at every visit: without a driver's licence, vehicle registration and the property's current-year tax bill, the « Entrepreneurs » rate applies automatically
No company vehicle, no transfer, no contractor	Free visits do not apply with a company vehicle or trailer, cannot be transferred from one address to another, and cannot be shared with your contractor

At the roadside, the fallback is thinner still. In Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois, every collection falls on a Monday: garbage every two weeks year-round, recycling every two weeks in alternation, the brown bin weekly from April to November then every two weeks from December to March. The monthly bulky waste collection accepts only « mattresses, couches, carpets, tarps » and refuses wooden furniture and toilets by name; its date shifts from month to month, so read the calendar rather than counting Mondays. The garbage bin excludes construction and renovation materials outright: by-law 549 says they « must be taken to the drop-off centres » and that « the occupant must dispose of non-admissible waste at their own expense ». Meanwhile the municipality's construction by-law requires a dumpster for demolition debris. The volume figures do the rest: 10 yards = 270 cu. ft. = 7.6 m³, 20 yards = 540 cu. ft. = 15.3 m³, 40 yards = 1,080 cu. ft. = 30.6 m³.
