Payment & Fraud Policy: Full payment is required upon dumpster delivery. Customers may pay online, by phone, or with cash at the time of drop-off.

Dumpster Ownership & Liability: Once a dumpster is delivered and filled at a property or job site, its contents become the property of Atkinson Contracting. By law, you cannot remove or discard materials from the dumpster once it's been used, even if it's on your property. Removing contents from the dumpster may be considered tampering with company property. If the dumpster is filled, you are responsible for full payment, regardless of who placed the contents inside.
Outside Service Area Disclaimer: If your service location is outside our standard North Jersey service radius, Atkinson Contracting reserves the right to cancel or adjust your booking. Additional travel or disposal fees may apply.
Dry Run / Failed Service Fee:
A non-refundable $200 dry run fee will be charged per occurrence any time a truck is dispatched to your location and Atkinson Contracting is unable to complete delivery, swap, or pickup for reasons outside of our control.
Examples of situations that will result in a dry run fee include, but are not limited to:
• Multiple dumpster companies booked: Our driver arrives and is told the customer hired another dumpster company instead and our dumpster is no longer wanted.
• Blocked access for pickup or delivery: A car, trailer, equipment, or materials are parked in the drop zone or in front of the dumpster so our truck cannot safely load or unload.
• Locked or restricted access: A gate is locked, access code is not provided, or no one is on site to allow entry at the scheduled time.
• Unsafe or inaccessible site conditions: Low wires or branches, soft ground, snow, mud, or debris prevent safe access to the drop or pickup location.
If a dry run occurs, service must be rescheduled and an additional $200 dry run fee will apply for each subsequent failed attempt.
24-Hour Cancellation / Reschedule Policy
Customers have
24 hours from the time of booking to cancel their dumpster rental
with no cancellation fee, regardless of the scheduled delivery date.
After the initial 24-hour window has passed, any cancellation made before the scheduled delivery date may be charged a $200 cancellation fee.
If a cancellation occurs after a truck has already been dispatched or has arrived on site, it may be treated as a dry run and charged the $200 dry run fee instead of, or in addition to, the cancellation fee.
Example: If you book a dumpster on November 24th for a delivery on December 1st, you may cancel without a fee until November 25th at the same time the order was placed. Any cancellation after that time may be subject to a $200 cancellation fee.
