From our Google Business Profile, read on 2026-09-16
I would like to shout out these guys! Finding a waste disposal company that handles heavy materials like concrete without a bunch of hidden fees or headaches is usually very difficult but Big Bin made the process very easy. Pricing was great and the team was very professional. I would genuinely recommend them for any big project!
Ayman Khaled On time, quick and easy to communicate with, and great service all around
Eldin Malkic Amazing work ! Very good time that takes good care of you !

How waste bin rental in Oshawa works
Three steps. You tell us what is going in and where the bin can stand. A truck sets the empty bin on that spot, and later a truck takes it away full. Nobody usually has to be at the house for either visit. We need the exact spot, and room for the truck to get to it.
Our yard is in Mississauga, and the trucks that serve Oshawa also go to Whitby, Pickering, Ajax and Toronto.
01
Tell us about the job
Call or email with what you are clearing, where the bin can stand, and when you need it.
02
The bin arrives
A truck sets the bin down where you asked. Nothing is emptied at your place: you or your crew fill it when it suits you.
03
It leaves full
The truck takes the whole bin away, and the load is weighed at the dump.
How much does garbage bin rental in Oshawa cost?
Bin rentals from $718, before HST, for a 14 yard bin of household and renovation waste. There are two bills, from two different places. If the bin needs the City’s road occupancy permit, the City charges for it and you pay the City. Everything else is the rental, and an Oshawa address adds nothing to it.
On the rental, the bin size and what goes in set the price. With household and renovation waste, the price includes some weight: 2 tonnes for a 14 yard bin, 3 tonnes for a 30 yard and 4 tonnes for a 40 yard. The full bin is weighed at the dump, and each tonne over what the price includes is added. The fill line marked on each bin shows how high to load it. Going over it costs extra, and so does keeping a bin past 7 days.
If the driver has no room to set the bin down on the day, that is a failed delivery. Bin rental prices lists it with the other extra charges.
To see each charge explained, read Bin and dumpster rental cost. Our free weight calculator gives a rough weight for your pile. To see your own price, with tax included, get a quote online.

Can a bin go on your driveway in Oshawa?
Yes, on your own land: a bin that stays inside your property line needs no City permit. The City’s Boulevard By-law counts the strip between the street line and the curb as part of the road, so the end of a driveway nearest the curb can be City land.
A bin on a City street needs the City’s road occupancy permit, and the City sets conditions of its own for storage containers. One of them is a season: these applications are not approved between 1 December and 1 April.
On the road, the bin must be coned off the way Ontario’s traffic manual sets out, and it may not block the access or driveways of neighbouring properties. Whoever holds the permit answers for any damage the bin does to the road or boulevard when it is dropped off, stored and picked up.
Some Oshawa roads are not the City’s to permit: the Region of Durham issues permits for work done on Regional roads, and the Region shows which roads are its own in its Regional Roads List.
Right now, you apply for the City’s permit yourself; Big Bin does not apply on a customer’s behalf.
| The question | What the City of Oshawa says |
|---|---|
| The fee to occupy a road or boulevard | $87.50 source [1] plus tax |
| Insurance | $2 million source [1] of general liability, with the City named on the policy; a homeowner storing a bin on the road gives a certificate in their own name |

Where is the dump in Oshawa, and when is it open?
The Region of Durham’s Oshawa Waste Management Facility, at 1640 Ritson Road North, is open to the public Tuesday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and until 6 p.m. on Tuesdays from the first Tuesday in May to the first Tuesday in October.
Your vehicle crosses a scale coming in and another going out, and staff at the exit scale tell you the cost. Pay with Visa, Mastercard or debit: no cash, cheques or accounts are accepted.
Oshawa Waste Management Facility fees and what it takes
| What you have | Where it goes | On what terms |
|---|---|---|
| A carload of household or renovation waste | The Oshawa Waste Management Facility | $7 source [4] up to 40 kg; above that, $1.40 source [4] for every 8 kg |
| A load of soil, brick, concrete or other fill | The same facility | $375 per 1,000 kilograms source [4] |
| Appliances with Freon, such as fridges, freezers and air conditioners | The same facility | $20 source [4] fee |
| Soil with nothing else in it, by the bin | A 14 yard bin from Big Bin | One flat price, with no weight charge |
The facility takes appliances, carpet and underlay, drywall, furniture, garbage, porcelain bathroom fixtures, scrap metal and wood.
The site is closed on all holidays. Household hazardous waste, such as paint, solvents, propane tanks and batteries, is dropped off for free, up to 50 litres or 25 cans a vehicle each day. Asbestos is not accepted.
Bring hazardous waste as a load of its own: a load with anything chargeable in it is charged on its whole weight.
The facility also has a paint reuse centre, where residents drop off or collect good, reusable paints and stains at no cost, up to five cans a vehicle a day.
Whether a given item can go in a rented bin is listed in What can go in a bin.
Garbage and junk removal in Oshawa
In Oshawa, a rented bin takes the junk from a clear-out and the waste from a renovation together: furniture, mattresses, household contents, scrap metal, drywall, cabinets, tile and branches. If something is unusual, call 416-458-4324 before the bin arrives. To choose between a bin and junk removal, see Bin rental or junk removal?
The City itself collects garbage from Oshawa homes of eight or fewer units, and garbage day comes every other week, on the same weekday. Put the garbage out by 7 a.m. that day, but not before 6 p.m. the night before. It goes out in bags only, never in cans: four bags per home each collection, none over 20 kg.
Right now, each bag past the four needs a City tag, at $2.50 source [6] a tag. Construction material, concrete, drywall and wood waste are not taken at the curb.
Furniture, mattress and appliance removal in Oshawa
The City of Oshawa picks up furniture, mattresses and large appliances at the curb, and there is no fee to book a Large Item Collection. Book it online or through Service Oshawa at least two business days before your regular garbage day, subject to availability.
It is for the same homes the City collects garbage from. Each pickup takes up to six items, none longer than 3 metres or heavier than 70 kg.
Couches, sofas and love seats, mattresses and box springs, fridges, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers and air conditioners are all on the City’s list. Remove all doors from appliances first, and take the propane tank off a barbecue. Demolition and renovation material, drywall and wood waste among it, is not collected.
Will an Oshawa load weigh more than the bin includes?
Drywall, plaster and old shingles weigh more than the space they fill suggests. Give our free weight calculator the length, width and height of your pile, and it works out roughly how many tonnes it comes to, so before you book you can tell if your load may pass the weight your bin includes.
Which dumpster bin size suits an Oshawa job?
All three of our bins come to Oshawa: 14, 30 or 40 yard. Two questions pick the size: what is going in, and how much of it there is.
What is going in comes first. Concrete and soil each go in a 14 yard bin of their own, never together, and either one is priced flat, with no charge for weight. Keep them clean too: if anything else is in with them, the bin is not taken away. If you have filled the bin by the time that is found, a charge applies as well. Asphalt is not a material Big Bin takes, in any bin size. Big Bin does not take contaminated soil. To see why concrete gets its own bin, read Concrete disposal.
How much comes second. A garage clear-out or a basement of old furniture fills a bin by space, not by weight. If a bin fills up before the job is done, a second bin costs extra, so leave some room when you choose. To compare the three bins side by side, see the Bin size guide.
How big is each bin?
| Bin | Measurements | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| 14 yard | 4'1" high × 11'6" long × 7'6" wide | Gutting a bathroom or kitchen, a garage clear-out, one room taken down to the wall frame. |
| 30 yard | 5'4" high × 20' long × 7'6" wide | A full renovation, taking off a roof, clearing out a house, a mid-size demolition. |
| 40 yard | 7' high × 20' long × 7'6" wide | A whole-house renovation, fitting out a store or office, a long building job. |
Before a bin comes to your Oshawa address, look at the way in as well as the spot. The truck needs about 25 feet of headroom to lift its bed, 10 feet of width and 65 feet of straight, clear space to back in. These are rough numbers, so call and describe the spot if yours is tighter.

Bin rental in Oshawa: common questions
Do I need a permit for a bin in Oshawa?
Not on your own land, inside the property line, though the end of a driveway nearest the curb can be City land. On a City road, yes: the City’s road occupancy permit, which the City does not approve for a container between 1 December and 1 April. On a Region of Durham road the City’s permit does not apply, so ask the Region. Right now, you apply for the permit yourself, not Big Bin.
Where is the dump in Oshawa?
At the Region of Durham’s Oshawa Waste Management Facility, 1640 Ritson Road North. It is open Tuesday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., until 6 p.m. on Tuesdays from May to early October, and closed on holidays. A load up to 40 kg costs $7 source [4]; above that, $1.40 source [4] for every 8 kg. Soil, brick, concrete and other fill cost $375 per 1,000 kilograms source [4]. Household hazardous waste goes in free. Pay with Visa, Mastercard or debit, not cash.
How much does garbage bin rental cost in Oshawa?
Bin rentals from $718, before HST, for a 14 yard bin of household and renovation waste. That price includes delivery, pickup and 7 days. Weight over what a bin includes adds to it, and so do a load above the fill line and a bin kept longer. The price is the same anywhere in Oshawa. If the bin has to stand on a City road, the City’s road occupancy permit is $87.50 source [1] plus tax. Get your own price online.
What can go in a bin in Oshawa?
Furniture, mattresses, household contents, wood, drywall, cabinets, tile, carpet, roofing shingles, scrap metal, fencing and branches can go in a bin of household and renovation waste. Asphalt is not a material Big Bin takes, in any bin size. Big Bin does not take contaminated soil. Paint, propane tanks, batteries and tires stay out of the bin and go to a drop-off of their own. In Oshawa, the Region’s Oshawa Waste Management Facility takes paint and other household hazardous waste free. If something is unusual, call 416-458-4324 before the bin arrives. For the rest, item by item, see What can go in a bin.
