Ventura dumpster rental FAQ

Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Ventura, CA?

Not on your own driveway. Ventura doesn't publish a rule specifically for dumpsters on the street, so before placing one on a street or sidewalk, ask City of Ventura Public Works - Land Development Engineering at (805) 654-7767 whether a right-of-way permit is needed. Cities that publish a rule generally require one. HOA rules may also apply.

Where does trash from Ventura dumpsters go?

Much of the mixed debris from Ventura goes to Toland Road Landfill, 3500 N Toland Rd, Santa Paula, CA 93060, operated by Ventura Regional Sanitation District. Haulers may route loads through transfer stations or recycling facilities first. Call (805) 658-4685 for current hours and rules.

Most haulers bar hazardous waste, liquid paint and solvents, tires, batteries, appliances with refrigerant, asbestos, medical waste, and liquids, and many also bar electronics.

How long can I keep a rental dumpster in Ventura?

Many haulers include about a week in the base price and charge a daily fee after that, so ask for the extra-day rate when you compare quotes. If the dumpster is on the street under a permit, the permit's end date is the limit.
