01 / Gaithersburg
Two Gaithersburgs, two kinds of delivery
Gaithersburg splits pretty cleanly into older neighborhoods with normal driveways and newer planned communities where everything is tighter. Knowing which one you are in tells us most of what we need.
Olde Towne, Observatory Heights, Quince Orchard, and the established neighborhoods
Detached houses, real driveways, mature trees. These are easy deliveries. The main thing we check is overhead clearance, because the truck raises the container at an angle to roll it off, and a low oak limb over the driveway can get in the way. Typical jobs: kitchens, basements, decks, roof replacements, and cleanouts. The 15 and 20 yard cover most of it.
Kentlands, Lakelands, and Crown
These communities were designed around walkable streets, rear alleys, and garages behind the house. They are great to live in and a little tricky to put a dumpster in. There is usually no front driveway at all. The container goes on the garage apron off the alley, or in a space the association approves. The alleys are narrow, so we use the 10 or 15 yard most often and plan the approach before the truck shows up.
These neighborhoods also have active community associations with rules about containers, how long they can stay, and sometimes where. Check with yours before booking. A quick email to the management office usually does it.
Washingtonian, Rio, and the commercial corridors
Retail and office work along Frederick Avenue, around Washingtonian Center, and in the business parks. For tenant build-outs we coordinate with property management on where the container sits and when the truck can come in.

Street placement and permits in Gaithersburg
On a private driveway or pad, no permit. If the container has to go on a city street, contact the City of Gaithersburg before you schedule delivery and ask what they require for a temporary dumpster in the right-of-way. The county's dumpster permit does not apply on city streets. Frederick Avenue (MD 355), Quince Orchard Road and Montgomery Village Avenue (MD 124), and Clopper Road (MD 117) are state roads with their own process.
Some Gaithersburg mailing addresses are actually outside city limits, in unincorporated Montgomery County. North Potomac and parts of the Quince Orchard area are the usual examples. Those fall under the county's Department of Permitting Services for street placement.
What size fits behind a Kentlands or Lakelands townhouse?
Usually the 10 yard (14 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, 3 feet high). Some aprons take a 15. Measure the pad and send us the numbers, and keep the garage door clear if you need to get a car out during the rental.
Does my HOA have to approve the dumpster?
In most Gaithersburg planned communities, yes, or at least they need to be notified. It is their rule, not ours, but skipping it can get you a violation letter.
How quickly can you get to Gaithersburg?
Order before noon and same-day delivery is usually possible. Otherwise next day.
