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 residential bin rental in Toronto 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 Toronto also go to Pickering, Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Brampton and Caledon.
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 Toronto 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 Street Occupation Permit, the City charges for it and you pay the City. Everything else is the rental, and a Toronto 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.

How to keep a Toronto bin rental cheap
Start with where the bin stands: inside your property line it needs no permit, no drawing and no trip to a City office. So any private ground a house has is worth measuring before the street is. On a road or in a lane, the City charges for its permit by the day. Each day the bin stands there is another day of that fee.
Pick the smallest bin the job fits in, since a second bin is a second charge, and a heavy load costs no less in a bigger bin. Keep a concrete or soil load clean, so it stays at its one flat price. And plan the days: only the days past the 7 included cost extra.
Can a bin go on your driveway in Toronto?
Yes, on your own land, if there is room, and then no City permit is needed. Toronto’s permit rule starts at the property line: a Street Occupation Permit is needed to temporarily occupy the boulevard, sidewalk, roadway or public lane. The boulevard is the strip of City land along the street, and the part of a driveway closest to the road can be boulevard too.
If the house has no driveway or yard to use, the bin goes on the road or in the lane behind, with that permit.
Apartment and condo buildings are their own case. A loading area is the building’s private ground, so the City’s permit does not apply there, and the building decides. Talk to the property manager and bring a tape measure before you book.
On a road or in a public lane, a disposal bin needs a Street Occupation Permit. The City says these permits must be obtained in person and paid for when they are issued. The application needs drawings in metric, to scale. They show the sidewalk’s width, the distance back to the property line, and the hydrants, trees, poles and parking meters near the spot. The City’s building guidance says to call 311 for the local permit office.
If the bin closes the sidewalk, the street or a public lane, the application also needs a letter saying how long the closure lasts, with a work schedule.
The permit covers only the street in front of your own lot. The City’s street rules, Chapter 743, say it cannot go past the front of your property unless the owner next door agrees in writing. On a narrow lot, that can decide where the bin goes.
At the moment, you apply for the permit yourself, not Big Bin.
| The question | What the City of Toronto says |
|---|---|
| Fee for a disposal bin | $73.89 + HST source [1] a day; more for a builder inside a Construction Hub |
| Each extra lane of road closed | $178.81 + HST source [1] a day |

Where is the dump in Toronto, and when is it open?
Toronto’s dumps are the City’s seven transfer stations, in North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough and the rest of the City: each has a Drop-Off Depot that residents can use for their unwanted items. Every depot is open on weekdays from 6 a.m. to at least 6 p.m. On Saturdays three of them open until 12:30 p.m., and on Sundays all seven are closed.
You pay a deposit of at least $40 source [7] before you unload. A load that is not tied down is turned away.
From the transfer stations, most of the City’s garbage goes on to Green Lane Landfill, outside Toronto.
| What you have | Where it goes in Toronto | On what terms |
|---|---|---|
| Renovation waste | Any of the seven drop-off depots; clean drywall at three, a tonne at most | $19 source [7] for the first 100 kg, then $189.86 source [7] a tonne |
| Soil with nothing else in it, by the bin | A 14 yard bin from Big Bin | One flat price, with no weight charge |
Toronto transfer station and drop-off depot hours
| The depot | Hours, for everything but hazardous waste and electronics |
|---|---|
| Bermondsey, 188 Bermondsey Road | Open all day and night from Monday at 6 a.m. to Friday at 9 p.m.; Saturday 7 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; closed Sunday |
| Commissioners, 400 Commissioners Street | Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; closed Saturday and Sunday |
| Disco, 120 Disco Road | Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; closed Saturday and Sunday |
| Dufferin, 35 Vanley Crescent | Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; closed Saturday and Sunday |
| Ingram, 50 Ingram Drive | Open all day and night from Monday at 6 a.m. to Saturday at 12:30 p.m.; closed Sunday |
| 1 Transfer Place | Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Saturday 7 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; closed Sunday |
| Victoria Park, 3350 Victoria Park Avenue | Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; closed Saturday and Sunday |
The City says hours may vary on holidays. At every depot, you pay by cash, credit card or debit card.

Garbage and junk removal in Toronto
In Toronto, 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?
For a house with daytime collection, the City picks up garbage every other week. A few extra bags can go out on garbage day. The City says garbage your City garbage bin can’t hold with the lid closed must be bagged, tagged and set out beside your garbage bin. Each bag needs its own City garbage tag and can weigh no more than 20 kilograms, and you can buy the tags online from the City, at $6.81 source [11] each in 2026.
Bigger things go out the same day. The City picks up oversized items such as furniture, mattresses and appliances set out beside your garbage bin, paid for by a yearly fee on every home, $23.23 source [11] in 2026. Remove the doors from fridges, ovens and other appliances first. It does not take construction, demolition or renovation waste at the curb: baseboards, cabinets, drywall, shingles and tiles go to a City drop-off depot instead.
A mattress with bed bugs goes out wrapped completely in plastic. Mattresses can also go to two depots, Commissioners and Dufferin, for a fee: $142.40 source [7] a tonne.
Where to take hazardous waste in Toronto
Take household hazardous waste in Toronto to a City drop-off depot, where a household drops it off free. Six of the seven depots take it, all but Dufferin, on hours of their own: Tuesday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and on Mondays too at Bermondsey and Ingram. Paint, batteries, propane tanks and household cleaners never go out with the garbage.
The City will also pick up 10 to 50 litres or kilograms of it from your home: book this free Toxic Taxi pickup through 311. Community Environment Days run from April to the end of September, and they take it too, up to 50 litres or kilograms a visit.
Dirt and concrete removal in Toronto: the cheapest way
Concrete removal in Toronto is two jobs: breaking up the concrete, which takes workers and machines, and taking it away, which is the bin. Big Bin brings the bin, not the workers. Broken concrete goes in a 14 yard bin of its own.
With a bin, the cheapest dirt is clean dirt: it goes in the 14 yard bin for one flat price, with no weight charge. The City of Toronto’s drop-off sites take no soil or concrete. Soil dug out of a building site can also fall under Ontario’s rules for extra soil, set by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks. Soil and fill disposal explains them.
Is the load heavier than the bin looks?
Brick, tile and plaster get heavy long before a bin looks full. Measure your pile, and our free weight tool will tell you roughly how many tonnes it is. Then pick the right size before you book.
Which disposal bin size suits a Toronto job?
All three of our bins come to Toronto: 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 roll-off 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 Toronto 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.

Renovation and construction bins in Toronto
On a Toronto construction site, a bin full of household and renovation waste can be swapped for an empty bin of that size. With household waste, the empty bin comes with the same weight included as the first one, and its own 7 days on site, counted from the swap. Each household-waste swap is billed as one trip for a bin that size, never as another rental. There is no swap rate for clean concrete or clean soil, so every bin of either after the first costs the full price again.
Inside a Construction Hub, a builder’s permit for a bin on the road costs 25 per cent more.
Bin rental for contractors sets out how swaps work on a long job. Construction bin rental helps when the waste changes as the build goes on. Running several Toronto jobs, or managing a building? See Commercial bin and dumpster rental.
Renting a bin in Toronto: common questions
Do I need a permit for a bin in Toronto?
Yes. The City of Toronto needs a Street Occupation Permit for a bin placed past your property line. That means the boulevard, the sidewalk, the road or a public lane. A bin on your own property, inside the property line, needs no permit at all, though the part of a driveway closest to the road can be City land. The City issues the permit in person and takes payment when it does. The application needs drawings to scale showing the sidewalk, the property line and things like hydrants and trees. It covers only the stretch of street in front of your own property, unless the neighbour agrees in writing. At the moment, you apply for the permit yourself, not Big Bin.
Where is the dump in Toronto?
At the City’s seven transfer stations, whose Drop-Off Depots take a household’s waste. Every depot is open on weekdays from 6 a.m. to at least 6 p.m., and three open on Saturday mornings. Garbage and renovation waste cost $19 source [7] for the first 100 kilograms and $189.86 source [7] a tonne above that, after a deposit of at least $40 source [7]. The depots take cash, credit and debit cards.
How much does dumpster bin rental cost in Toronto?
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 Toronto. If the bin stands on a road or in a lane, the City charges $73.89 + HST source [1] a day in 2026 for its Street Occupation Permit. Get your own price online.
What can go in a bin in Toronto?
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 Toronto, six of the City’s seven drop-off depots take paint and other household hazardous waste from homes 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.
Do you rent commercial bins in Toronto?
Yes. Big Bin rents the same 14, 30 and 40 yard roll-off bins to businesses and buildings in Toronto, one bin or one job at a time. See Commercial bin and dumpster rental.
Can yard waste go in a bin in Toronto?
A bin of household and renovation waste takes fencing, decking, sod, branches and brick from a landscaping job. Brick goes in with other household and renovation waste, but it is heavy for its size: the price includes 2 to 4 tonnes of weight, by bin size, and each tonne over that costs extra. Brick uses up that weight fast. The City of Toronto’s own yard waste pickup comes every other week on garbage day, from around mid-March to mid-November.
Can I rent a bin for clean fill or concrete in Toronto?
Yes. Clean soil, or clean concrete, each goes in a 14 yard bin of its own, with nothing else in it. The City’s drop-off sites take no soil or concrete.
How soon can a bin come to a Toronto address?
Order by 3PM and the bin can come the next day. Same day depends on how busy the day already is, so ask when you call — it is not something Big Bin promises in advance.
