OC Junk Removal started back in 2007 with a single truck, a handful of dumpsters, and a straightforward mission: make waste removal easy for our neighbors in Costa Mesa and Orange County. What began as a small, family-owned operation has grown into one of the region’s most trusted waste management partners; but we’ve never lost sight of what matters most. We treat every customer like family, every project like it’s our own, and every dumpster delivery like it’s the most important job of the day.
Our founder grew up right here in Orange County, working construction summers during college and watching how frustrating junk removal could be. Hidden fees, late deliveries, rude drivers; it was a mess. So when the opportunity came to start a local dumpster rental company, the goal was clear: do it better. Be upfront about pricing. Show up on time. Answer the phone. Treat people’s driveways and job sites with respect. Nearly 20 years later, those values still drive everything we do.
Today, our team brings decades of combined experience in residential cleanouts, construction debris disposal, commercial waste solutions, and everything in between. We’ve seen it all; from hoarding cleanups that require sensitivity and patience, to fast-turnaround demolition projects where timing is everything. Our core values haven’t changed: reliability, transparency, customer service, and environmental responsibility. We’re here to make junk removal and debris disposal as simple and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on what matters; finishing your project.
No two projects are exactly alike, which is why we offer dumpster rental services tailored to fit your specific needs. Whether you’re cleaning out a single room or tearing down an entire structure, we have the equipment, experience, and flexibility to support you from start to finish.

Dumpster rental costs vary based on container size, rental duration, and the type of debris you’re disposing of. Our prices are competitive and all-inclusive; delivery, pickup, disposal, and your rental period are bundled into one flat rate with no hidden fees. Smaller dumpsters start at an affordable rate, while larger containers for heavy debris or extended rentals cost more. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call us and describe your project. We’ll give you transparent, upfront pricing on the spot.
The right dumpster size depends on your project scope. A 10-yard dumpster works well for small cleanouts like a garage or single-room renovation. Our most popular size, the 20-yard dumpster, is perfect for whole-home cleanouts, estate sales, and medium renovations. For large construction projects, demolition jobs, or multi-room remodels, a 30 or 40-yard dumpster may be necessary. If you’re working with heavy materials like concrete or dirt, our 10-yard lowboy is a great choice. We’re happy to help you choose the perfect size; just describe your project and we’ll make a recommendation based on experience.
Yes! We provide same-day dumpster delivery throughout Costa Mesa and Orange County when you call before noon. We also offer next-day delivery as our standard turnaround, and we can accommodate emergency dumpster rental requests when unexpected situations arise; storm damage, sudden foreclosures, or urgent contractor needs. Our flexible scheduling includes weekend and evening delivery options, because we know construction and cleanouts don’t always happen during business hours.
Our standard rental period is one week, but we offer flexible options including daily rentals for quick jobs, weekly rentals for most projects, and monthly dumpster rental for long-term construction or ongoing commercial needs. Need more time? No problem; extensions are easy and affordable. Just let us know your timeline and we’ll work with your schedule. We’d rather make it easy than nickel-and-dime you over an extra day or two.
We accept most types of household junk, construction debris, yard waste, furniture, appliances (in most cases), roofing shingles, concrete, brick, wood, metal, drywall, and general trash. Items we cannot accept include hazardous materials (paint, chemicals, asbestos), automotive fluids, tires, propane tanks, and certain electronics. If you’re unsure whether something is allowed, just ask; we’ll walk you through what’s okay and what isn’t. Better to ask upfront than deal with issues at pickup.
We’ll place your dumpster wherever it’s most convenient for you; typically in your driveway, on the street in front of your property, in a parking lot, or directly on your job site. During booking, we’ll discuss the best placement location to ensure easy access for loading while protecting your property. We can also provide boards or mats to protect your driveway surface if needed. If placement requires blocking a street or public area, you may need a permit (see below).
If the dumpster will be placed on private property; like your driveway, backyard, or parking lot; you typically don’t need a permit. However, if you need it placed on a public street, sidewalk, or right-of-way, Costa Mesa may require a permit from the city. We can guide you through the permit process and provide any documentation or information you need to submit. In most residential cases, driveway placement is easiest and avoids the permit requirement entirely.
Whether you need a dumpster for a home cleanout, a construction project, a commercial renovation, or anything in between, we’re here to help. With nearly two decades of experience serving Costa Mesa and Orange County, we’ve streamlined the rental process to make it as easy and stress-free as possible. Transparent pricing, fast delivery, and exceptional customer service; that’s the OC Junk Removal promise.
Our team is standing by 24/7 to answer your questions, provide a free quote, and get your dumpster delivered exactly when you need it. Don’t let junk removal slow down your project. Give us a call today and let’s get started.

Not sure which size you need? Don't worry; we've been doing this since 2007. Just describe your project, and we'll recommend the perfect fit. Our team knows exactly what works for roof tear-offs, cleanouts, renovations, and construction jobs. We'd rather you get it right the first time than pay for a second container. Fast and reliable delivery means we can always swap sizes if needed, but we'll get it right upfront.
Every dumpster has a clearly marked fill line; please don't exceed it. Overfilled containers can't be safely transported and may result in extra fees or refusal of pickup. Each size also includes a specific tonnage allowance (listed in the table above). Going over the weight limit? We charge a fair per-ton overage fee with transparent pricing; no surprises. When you book, we'll explain your weight limit and help you estimate your debris so you stay within range.
We accept most construction debris, household junk, furniture, appliances, yard waste, and general trash. However, we cannot accept hazardous materials such as paint, chemicals, oil, asbestos, tires, batteries, or certain electronics. California law prohibits these items in landfills. When you book, we'll provide a complete list of what's allowed and what's not. Our commitment to eco-friendly disposal practices means we recycle and divert waste responsibly; keeping our community and environment safe.
If the dumpster fits on your driveway or private property, you typically won't need a permit in Costa Mesa. However, if you need to place it on the street or public right-of-way, a permit from the City of Costa Mesa may be required. Don't worry; we'll guide you through the process and help you understand exactly what's needed. Our local expertise means we know the regulations inside and out.
We'll work with you to find the best spot for your dumpster; usually your driveway for easy access. Make sure the area is level, clear of overhead wires or tree branches, and accessible for our delivery truck. We take care to avoid damage to your property during placement and pickup. If you're concerned about your driveway or pavement, let us know; we can place protective boards underneath. Professional service means treating your property with respect.
Our standard rental period is one week, but we offer flexible scheduling with weekly and monthly options for longer projects. Your rental includes delivery, pickup, disposal, and the specified tonnage. Need more time? Just call us; extensions are easy and affordable. We believe in transparent pricing, so you'll always know exactly what you're paying for. No hidden fees, no confusing contracts, no surprises on the final bill.
We know your project timeline matters. That's why we offer same-day delivery when you book before noon, plus next-day and weekend options. Our fast and reliable delivery means we show up when we say we will; no delays, no excuses. When you're ready for pickup, just give us a call or book online. We'll have your dumpster hauled away promptly, keeping your project on schedule.

If you have concerns about a particularly delicate surface, let us know; we'll take extra precautions. Your satisfaction and the condition of your property are our top priorities.
