Tires
Take tires to a tire retailer, a tire recycling location, or a county collection event. Tires hidden in a load cause rejection and added charges.
Items Not Allowed in the Dumpster
A clear, no-exceptions list of what cannot go in an FTH Services roll-off dumpster.
What We Do Not Accept
To keep every load safe, legal, and within landfill rules, some materials are never accepted in our dumpsters. These are firm rules with no exceptions, so please keep the items below out of the container and arrange separate disposal for them.
We Never Accept These
- Concrete, brick, rock, and dirt or heavy fill
- Tree stumps
- Tires
- Batteries of any kind (car, equipment, rechargeable, lithium)
- Wet paint, stain, sealer, and liquid coatings
- Biological or medical waste
Also Not Accepted
- Hazardous materials, chemicals, pesticides, solvents, fuels, oils, and liquids
- Asbestos and any contaminated or regulated waste
- Propane tanks, pressurized containers, and gas cylinders
- Appliances with refrigerant, including refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and similar units unless refrigerant has been professionally removed
- Any material that makes the dumpster unsafe, overweight, leaking, or illegal to haul
Unsafe Loads
- Debris loaded above the rim/top rail
- Items hanging over the side or sticking out of the container
- Loose liquids or leaking containers that can run out during transport
- Loads blocked by vehicles, gates, low limbs, or soft ground at pickup
Where to Take Items We Do Not Accept
Wet Paint and Liquid Coatings
Keep wet paint, stain, sealer, and liquid coatings out of the dumpster. Use a household hazardous-waste program when available.
Batteries
Car, equipment, rechargeable, and lithium batteries go to an approved battery recycler or retailer drop-off. Batteries create fire and environmental risks in a mixed load.
Appliances
Appliances with refrigerant are not accepted. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and similar units must have refrigerant professionally removed before they can be loaded. Appliances without refrigerant should be placed at the rear barn doors so they can be accessed at disposal. Keep food, loose liquids, and loose debris out before loading.
Chemicals, Fuel, Oil, and Solvents
Use a household hazardous-waste program or approved disposal provider for chemicals, fuels, oils, solvents, and pesticides. These never go in a roll-off dumpster.
Concrete, Dirt, Brick, Rock, and Stumps
Heavy fill and tree stumps are not accepted in our general cleanup dumpsters. A dedicated heavy-debris hauler or landscape disposal site is the right option for these.
Overfilled or Unsafe Loads
All debris must stay below the rim/top rail. Material above the rim, items hanging over the sides, loose liquids, or an unsafe load can result in additional fees, unloading requirements, delayed pickup, or refusal to haul. Review the Terms and Conditions for customer responsibility, added charges, and loading rules.
