1. Permission-Customer grants advance disposal permission to enter job site and guarantees it is safe and ready to receive our equipment.
2. Damage to property-Trucks and Dumpsters are heavy and we are a "for hire" company. We are entering your property to place a dumpster upon your request. We do not accept any liability while on your property. You need to be aware of hazards like low power or phone lines, soft surfaces like mud, gravel, or weak surfaces like old concrete and soft or old asphalt. We are on your property because you have instructed us to be, and it is your job to assess the possibility of damage due to our company dropping off or removing a dumpster. Our trucks can weigh as much as 55,000 pounds. They can crush weak concrete or push into soft asphalt. There is also some friction where the dumpster and the truck meet and the dumpster can rub the driveway and leave a mark. If you want to protect your driveway, place old carpet or plywood as you see fit under the area where the dumpster will be, as well as in front of the dumpster where the truck will be, as it slides your dumpster off the back of it. We are only doing what you told us to do, and therefore the liability and risk of damage is taken completely by the customer.
3. Overloaded bins height- You must not stack any debris over the top of the bin. If items are stacked above the rim, the driver has the choice to charge a $100 fee to take the time to rope it, or to reject the load due to safety concerns and charge a $200 dry run fee. If the driver rejects the load due to safety concerns, you will need to reorganize the bin to a safe level and pay the dry run fee.
4. Additional tonnage- Your dumpster was quoted with a certain amount of tonnage included. If you exceed this amount you will pay by the ton to the nearest .01 of a ton at a rate of $89.00 to $105.00 (Certified Loads) per ton (Roseville and Lincoln prices vary and are higher). Water weight can be a factor. During rainy weather, debris tonnage may increase. You are responsible for all additional tonnage.
5. Overloaded weight- You must not put more than 10 tons, that is 20,000 pounds, in any one dumpster. The penalty for bins that weigh in over 20,000 pounds is $45 dollars per ton prorated to the nearest .01 of a ton. The Customer assumes all liability for overweight fines levied by state law. Any fines levied by state law for overloaded bins will be paid by the customer. In some cases this can be as much as one dollar per pound. Additionally, if we take a load to the dump and we weigh in at more than 10 tons, we will charge a fee of $45 per ton on top of the dump fees to cover the extra risk and wear and tear on the trucks.
6. Close doors- Doors must be closed to remove the dumpster, you must make sure the doors can close and are fully closed when you finish your job. If you do not close the door properly the load could spill as we try and load it. If this happens you will be responsible for the reloading of the bin.
7. Dry run- A dry run is any time we are called out to the job and are not able to successfully do our job. This includes but is not limited to cars blocking the bin, road closures, accidents, wrong address provided by customer, cancellation of delivery or removal on site, etc. A dry run fee of $200 plus tax will be charged for a dry run.
8. 5 day rental -We rent our dumpsters for a period of 5 days, you will be charged $25 per day if you keep the dumpster beyond 5 days. It is your responsibility to call us and tell us the dumpster is ready; we will let you keep it as long as you want it at this $25 per day rate. Discount may apply for long-term renters depending on the size of the dumpster. There are no cancellation fees unless we are on our way to or at the job site.
9. Permits- The customer is responsible for obtaining any street use permits or any other permits necessary. Sac city 916-808-6810, Sac county 916-874-6544.
10. Collections-Collection charges and attorney fees incurred by Advance Disposal for collection of this account will be paid for by customer. Our collection process includes but is not limited to a lien on the property, late fees, collection fees, legal fees, and other charges. We expect to be paid on time and will not tolerate late or delinquent accounts. Legal action will be taken and the account will be sent to collections within 20 days of delinquency. All invoices are past due after 30 days and a 10% finance charge will be applied.
11. Loading instructions-Customer must read and agree to follow important loading instructions:
a. Not over the top of bin
b. Do not load weight to one side, it could flip over as we load it on the truck. This is a problem when using a tractor to load debris that is mixed with dirt, rock, or other heavy material. If you stack one side of the bin with all the heavy material, the bin can roll over as we try to load it. Any damage to the bin, the truck, or tarp system of the truck caused by a load that is not loaded evenly will be paid for by the customer. Damages in the past have totaled thousands of dollars and this creates a very dangerous situation. When loading with a tractor, be careful to even out the load. If you load a bin with an uneven weight distribution that creates a dangerous situation, you will be responsible for unloading to a safe level, and for any additional dumpsters needed.
c. Do not load dirt and concrete in trash loads more than a few yards, this material weighs nearly 1 ton per yard. Heavy items like roofing, dirt, brick, or concrete may be cheaper to dispose of in a separate recycling container. Please ask if you have heavy items like these, call us at 916-444-8676.
d. No hazardous items like TV, tires, car batteries, propane tanks, motor oils, rail road ties, treated wood/pressure treated wood (see https://dtsc.ca.gov/toxics-in-products/treated-wood-waste/), paint, palm trees, fluorescent light tubes, computer screens, contaminated dirt, e-waste, etc. Items not allowed by local transfer stations are not allowed in the bin. We have listed the most common. Any items that require an extra fee at the transfer station will be billed to you, the customer.
e. No hang ups; make sure everything will slide out the back of the bin.
f. Do not damage our equipment with a tractor or other loading device. These dumpsters cost between $3,000 and $6,000 each. If you damage the dumpster you will be responsible for repairs and painting to cover and fully repair any damage.
g. The following items are allowed, but will cost extra at dump. For this reason, we charge extra for A/C units, compressors from refrigeration units, water heaters, couches, appliances, and mattresses. The fee will be based on what it cost us at the facility.
12. Payment of fees-Customer's credit card will be charged immediately for any fees incurred for tonnage, dry runs, or rope fees. By acknowledging these terms you agree that we can run your credit card for any and all fees.
13. Lead time - Customer must call 1 day in advance for service. Holidays and weather changes may delay removal.
14. Certification - If your load needs to be "certified C/D" by the transfer station, let the sales representative know when the bin is ordered. Prices may vary.
15. Special Waiver - Driver may ask you to sign a Special Liability Waiver if your instructions are too risky or the area isn't in good condition to handle the weight of a dumpster.
16. Customer will not use any compacting or crushing devices or services. These compactors will damage the dumpster. If customer uses such a device or service there will be a 250 dollar fee to assess damages to the dumpster, then customer will pay for all damages and repairs to bring dumpster back to original condition. Welding rates are in excess of 150 dollars per hour plus transport time.
17. Recycling tips: We encourage all our customers to recycle as much as possible, to keep unnecessary waste out of our landfills for a more sustainable system that will keep earth clean, help with climates changes and protect species.
Source Separate Materials such as Wood (no treated or pressure treated wood), Clean Concrete, Asphalt, Gravel, Green Waste, Cardboard and Metal are best to not mixed with regular trash, when mixed increases the amount of work of separating the materials to be recycled at transfer stations, which is reflected on the price per tonnage and ultimate the price of hauling your dumpster. Clean Dirt and Sod can also be separate and use as fill at facilities and prices are much cheaper to dispose. We rent roll off containers, we can only separate it 10, 20 and 40 yards at the time!
