How delivery and pickup work in Salida
Book online or call. Tell us the size, the delivery date, and where the dumpster should sit. The driver needs about 60 feet of straight clearance and 25 to 30 feet of vertical space. Narrow downtown lots are common here, so flag the access when you book. We lay boards under the rails on paved driveways to spread the weight.
Standard rental runs 7 to 14 days. Call when the dumpster is full or your rental ends and we pick it up. Fill only to the top rail. Overfilled loads cannot travel safely on mountain highways. Snow can delay winter delivery, so book a day early from November through March. In Salida, pickup runs via the Chaffee County Landfill.
