Two questions come up on nearly every booking: do I need a permit, and where does it all end up. Here is the straight answer to both, including the parts we have not confirmed yet.
The distinction that decides it is where the container sits. Permit rules exist to govern the public right of way, meaning the street, the verge and the pavement, because a container there affects traffic, drainage and access for everybody else. A container on your own driveway is on private property and generally sits outside that. Most of our deliveries in this county are driveway placements for exactly that reason, and it is worth planning for one if you have the room.
Generally is not the same as always, which is why the table below does not pretend otherwise. Individual towns write their own ordinances, some of them cover setbacks or the length of time a container can stay, and the only reliable way to know is to ask the town in question about your specific address.
| Municipality | Permit required | Cost | Issuing department | Ordinance | Driveway placement |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Murfreesboro | Call us and we will confirm before delivery | Confirmed with you before we dispatch | City of Murfreesboro, Building and Codes | Not yet confirmed | Confirmed with you before we dispatch |
| Smyrna | Call us and we will confirm before delivery | Confirmed with you before we dispatch | Town of Smyrna, Codes | Not yet confirmed | Confirmed with you before we dispatch |
| La Vergne | Call us and we will confirm before delivery | Confirmed with you before we dispatch | City of La Vergne, Codes | Not yet confirmed | Confirmed with you before we dispatch |
Every row above says the same thing on purpose. Rather than repeat what a national site guesses, we confirm the rule for your exact address before the truck is scheduled. A permit rule copied from the wrong town is how somebody ends up with a citation on their own driveway. Broader background is on do I need a permit.
| Facility | Accepts | Refuses or restricts |
|---|---|---|
| Middle Point Landfill | Household, commercial, and construction and demolition debris. On East Jefferson Pike in the Walter Hill area, between Murfreesboro and Smyrna. Operated by Republic Services and the largest landfill in Tennessee. | Standard hazardous waste exclusions. Worth knowing: it is projected to approach capacity around 2027, which is the pressure behind disposal costs across this county. |
| Rutherford County Transfer Station | Residential, commercial, and construction and demolition debris, charged by tonnage. County operated, also off East Jefferson Pike. | Standard hazardous waste exclusions. Charged by weight, so a heavy load costs more than a bulky one. |
| Rutherford County Landfill | Brush and off-the-rim tires only. 6025 Landfill Road, Murfreesboro. Monday to Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. | Stopped accepting construction and demolition material in 2018. If you are hauling remodel debris yourself, this is not the site for it, and turning up with a trailer full is a wasted trip. |
Loads from this county stay in this county, going to a facility on East Jefferson Pike rather than out to Nashville. You do not need to arrange any of that or drive anywhere: you load the container and the haul, the weigh-in and the tipping are ours. The list that actually affects you is what can go in the container, which is on what can go in a dumpster, and the 7 yard takes fill material only: concrete, dirt, sod and asphalt and nothing else. Hauling your own material separately? The county solid waste line is 615-898-7739, and confirm current rules with the site before you load, since hours and acceptance change.
Four Steps, No Surprises
The same process whether you are in Murfreesboro or on a back road near the county line.
-
Pick a size
If you are not sure, describe the job on the phone and you will get a straight answer, including when a smaller container would do. Sizes are compared on the sizes page.
-
Book it
Online in about two minutes, any hour. The heavy material container is booked by phone instead, because the load has to be checked before it is scheduled.
-
We deliver and place it
Usually on the driveway. Drivers use boards or plates to protect the surface, and the driver will talk to you about placement rather than guess at it.
-
Fill it, we collect
Call or book the collection when you are done. The load is weighed on a certified scale and the ticket goes on your invoice, so the tonnage charge is something you can check.
A Local Truck, Not A Call Center
Most of the results for dumpster rental in this county are brokers. They take your booking, take a margin, and hand the job to whichever independent hauler picks up. You find out who is coming when they arrive.
You pay for what you throw away
Tonnage is billed per ton rather than bundled into the price, so a light garage load costs less than a full remodel. The whole schedule is published on the rental page.
The owner answers the phone
Most days, during the day, you will get William. He is the person who can actually move a truck, which matters when a job slips a day.
Accountable locally
Trash Pandy is a member of the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce, which is a small thing but a checkable one. More on who runs it.
Book It Today. Fill It Tomorrow.
Pick a size, choose a date, and pay online in about two minutes. Or call and describe the job to the person who runs the trucks.
