A disposable dumpster bag is a flexible and portable waste disposal solution. It is a sturdy bag designed for various types of waste, providing a convenient and efficient alternative to traditional dumpsters.
At D-Bags, we encourage responsible waste disposal practices, including recycling and proper dumping. Our dumpster bags are designed with the environment in mind. Choosing D-Bags promotes sustainability by reducing the overall environmental impact of waste disposal.
Disposable dumpster bags are unfolded and placed in a suitable location. Users can then fill the bags with waste materials, ensuring they adhere to any weight restrictions specified by the bag’s manufacturer. Once filled, the bags are typically collected by waste disposal and debris removal services for proper disposal.
Our disposable dumpster bags are designed to accommodate a wide range of waste, including household debris, construction materials, yard waste, and more. Click here for prohibited items.
Heavy materials, such as dirt, brick, rock, sod, concrete, sand, asphalt, plaster, stucco, etc. are restricted to one cubic yard. This means using only the first foot of the D-Bag. You may put lighter waste above your heavy debris up to the top edge of the D-Bag for complete use of the D-Bags.
Each disposable dumpster bag comes with a specified weight limit, which is determined by its construction and materials. It’s crucial to adhere to these weight limits to ensure safe handling and transportation. Exceeding the limit may compromise the bag’s integrity and pose safety risks. The dimensions and capacity of our standard D-Bag are 8.3′ long x 4.3′ wide x 2.5′ tall and 3.3 cubic yards, respectively. As for our super D-Bag, the dimensions and capacity are 7.3′ long x 5′ wide x 3.3′ tall and 4.5 cubic yards, respectively.
Bags are designed as a single-use product and cannot be used more than once to reduce the cost of debris removal and disposal. Your D-Bag and all of its contents will not be returned after they have been collected. Your D-Bags and all of its contents will be disposed of at the time of collection.
If a sharp object has punctured your D-Bag, you can continue to use it! Our dumpster bags won’t continue to tear if you’ve removed the sharp object that caused the puncture, tear, or rupture in the bag. Once the penetrating object is removed or repositioned, it does not cause any further damage, and you can continue your project safely.
You do not need to be present for collection when we collect your D-Bag within five (5) business days of scheduling collection.
Your D-Bags will be picked up with a large truck mounted with an overhead crane reaching up to 16 feet from a paved surface. D-Bag placement guidelines are as follows:
- D-Bags can be set up horizontally or lengthwise on your property only—not on public sidewalks, streets, or other public property.
- D-Bag placement cannot be under any wires, trees, or overhead structures with less than 15 feet of clearance to not obstruct collection or be damaged during collection.
- D-Bags must be at least 5 feet away from any structures, fences, trees, vehicles, or other objects that may obstruct collection or be damaged during collection.
- The center of your D-Bags must be placed on your yard or driveway1 at most 16 feet (two D-Bags lengths) from the edge of a road, passage, or driveway with at least 18 feet of vertical clearance for our truck to operate.
