Down South Dumpsters started with a simple mission: to provide Mobile with honest, dependable waste management solutions when folks need them most. Back in 2001, our founder recognized that families and businesses in Mobile County deserved better; better service, better equipment, and better communication. What began as a small operation with just a handful of dumpsters has grown into the area’s most trusted name in roll-off dumpster rentals.
We’ve built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time. From helping families clean out generations of belongings during estate cleanouts to supporting Mobile’s contractors through major construction projects, we understand what our community needs. We’ve weathered hurricanes alongside our neighbors, provided emergency debris removal services when disaster strikes, and celebrated countless successful renovations and new builds.
Our values haven’t changed since day one: we believe in showing up on time, charging fair prices, treating every property with respect, and making ourselves available when you need us. As a locally owned and operated business, we’re not just your dumpster rental company; we’re your neighbors, and we take that responsibility seriously.
One size definitely doesn’t fit all when it comes to dumpster rentals. That’s why we offer a complete range of roll-off dumpster sizes designed to match your specific project needs; from small residential cleanouts to large-scale commercial construction.
10-Yard Dumpsters – Perfect for small cleanouts, garage decluttering, and minor bathroom renovations. Our 10-yard option is also available in a convenient lowboy style, making loading easier when you’re handling heavy materials or don’t want to lift debris high.
15-Yard Dumpsters – Ideal for basement cleanouts, attic cleanouts, spring cleaning projects, and estate cleanouts. This mid-size option handles most residential renovation projects with ease.
20-Yard Dumpsters – Our most popular choice for home remodeling, large garage cleanouts, flooring removal, and moving house cleanouts. It strikes the perfect balance between capacity and footprint.
30-Yard Dumpsters – Designed for roofing projects, renovation debris, and commercial cleanouts. When you’re tearing off shingles or handling significant remodeling work, this is your go-to size.
40-Yard Dumpsters – Built for demolition projects, new construction, and large-scale debris removal. This is the heavy-duty option for contractors who need maximum capacity.
We understand that every project moves at its own pace. That’s why we offer:

We’re committed to being responsible stewards of Alabama’s environment. That’s why we partner with licensed recycling facilities throughout Mobile County to sort and divert recyclable materials whenever possible. Construction debris like metal, concrete, and certain types of wood get a second life instead of taking up space in our landfills.
All waste disposal is handled at properly licensed facilities, and we follow all state and local regulations to ensure environmental compliance. It’s part of our commitment to keeping Mobile beautiful for generations to come.

| How do I select the correct dumpster size? | Think about your project scope. Small cleanouts typically need 10-15 yards. Full home renovations or roofing work usually require 20 yards. Large construction or demolition projects often need 30-40 yards. If you're unsure, call us; we'll ask about your project and recommend the right size. It's better to go slightly larger than risk needing a second dumpster. |
| What happens if I overload the dumpster? | Every dumpster has a clearly marked fill line; please don't load debris above this line. Overloading creates safety hazards during transport and may result in additional fees or our inability to pick up the container. We also include a specific tonnage allowance with each rental; exceeding the weight limit results in overage charges. Load evenly and stay below the fill line for safe, on-time pickup. |
| What items are prohibited? Can I dispose of hazardous waste? | We accept most common debris including furniture, appliances, construction materials, yard waste, and household junk. We cannot accept hazardous materials such as paint, chemicals, batteries, tires, propane tanks, asbestos, medical waste, or electronics containing refrigerants. If you're uncertain about an item, just ask; we're happy to clarify what's acceptable before delivery. |
| Do I need a permit to place a dumpster on my property? | If the dumpster will sit on private property (your driveway, yard, or job site), you typically don't need a permit. However, if you need to place it on a public street or right-of-way, a permit from your local municipality is usually required. We can guide you through the permit process and help you understand local regulations. |
| Where should I place the dumpster to avoid property damage? | Dumpsters are heavy and can damage soft surfaces. Place them on solid, level ground like concrete driveways or paved areas. Avoid grass, gravel, or asphalt when possible. We recommend using plywood boards under the dumpster on driveways to prevent cracking or staining. Our team will work with you on proper placement to protect your property while ensuring easy access. |
| What are your rental terms and how long can I keep the dumpster? | Our standard rental periods range from 7 days to monthly options, depending on your needs. Rental fees include delivery, pickup, disposal, and your chosen rental period; all in one transparent price with no hidden charges. Need it longer? We offer flexible scheduling and affordable extensions. Just let us know your timeline when you call for a quote. |
| How quickly can you deliver, and when will you pick it up? | We pride ourselves on fast and reliable delivery. Same-day and next-day delivery are often available when you call early. We'll deliver the dumpster exactly when you need it and pick it up promptly when you're finished; just give us a call to schedule. Our flexible pickup times work around your project schedule, not the other way around. |
| What happens to my waste after pickup? | We're committed to eco-friendly disposal practices. After pickup, we sort materials and recycle everything possible, including metal, wood, concrete, and cardboard. We partner with local recycling facilities to minimize landfill waste and ensure responsible disposal. When you rent from us, you're supporting sustainable waste management in our community. |
