15 & 20 yard roll-offs · 2 tons included · Delivery & pickup in the price · Flat rate, no surprise fees · Family-owned, based in Lathrop
Smithville is the only city on our list that sits in two counties at once — part Clay, part Platte — and the lake changes the work here in a way it doesn't anywhere else we serve. Lakefront and lake-adjacent property produces a particular kind of debris: docks, decks, boathouse material, storm damage, and the contents of seasonal properties being cleared out between owners.
In town, it's the ordinary mix — garage cleanouts, remodels, roof tearoffs, downsizing. We run one flat rate for all of it, and Smithville is well inside the area where that rate applies with nothing added on top.

Where the dumpster goes in Smithville
Driveway placement is simplest. For lake properties with steep or narrow approaches, tell us what the drive looks like when you book — our trailer-mounted roll-off gets into tighter spots than a full-size roll-off truck, but we'd rather know in advance than turn around in your yard.
Do you need a permit in Smithville?
Smithville's Chapter 245 follows the familiar Missouri pattern: commercial containers go on private property unless the owner has written permission from the City to use public property. The chapter doesn't separately regulate temporary roll-off containers. In practice: driveway is straightforward, street needs City sign-off, and we'll handle that conversation if your address requires it.
Where Smithville debris actually goes
Smithville straddles Clay and Platte counties, and neither has an operating sanitary landfill — Platte County's only listed facility is a utility waste landfill in Weston that takes coal ash, not construction debris. So Smithville loads travel to Courtney Ridge in Sugar Creek. Long haul, real cost, which is exactly why the 2-ton allowance exists and why we tell you about it before you book.

How it works
- Call, text or book online. Tell us what the project is and roughly what's going in. We'll recommend a size rather than upsell one, and quote you a flat price on the spot.
- We deliver to Smithville. Often same or next day. We set boards under the rails on driveway placements and put the container where you're actually working, not just at the top of the drive.
- Fill it on your schedule. Three days or seven, whichever you booked. Load heavy flat items first and fill the gaps — most people who need a second container filled the first one with air.
- Tell us you're done. Call or text and we'll pick it up. If you're near the weight allowance, say so and we'll talk through the cheapest way to handle it before we haul.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a dumpster cost in Smithville, MO?
15 yard: $325 for 3 days or $375 for 7. 20 yard: $375 for 3 days or $425 for 7. Delivery, pickup and 2 tons are included, and Smithville is inside our flat-rate area.
Can you deliver a dumpster to a property on Smithville Lake?
Yes, and we do it regularly. Lake driveways are sometimes steep, narrow or gravel — our trailer setup handles more of those than a full-size roll-off truck will. Describe the approach when you book so we show up with the right plan.
What size dumpster do I need for a dock or deck teardown in Smithville?
Treated lumber is bulky but not especially heavy, so volume is usually the constraint. A typical residential deck fits the 15 yard; a large deck plus dock material is a 20 yard job. Send a photo and we'll tell you which.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Smithville?
Not for a dumpster on your own driveway or private property. Smithville's code requires written permission from the City only for containers placed on public property, so street placement is the case where we need to check first.
How long can I keep the dumpster in Smithville?
Three days or seven days, your choice, at the prices above. Need it longer? Call us before the rental ends and we'll work out an extension rather than let it turn into a problem.
Do you take yard waste and storm debris in Smithville?
Yes. Brush, limbs, and storm cleanup all go in the dumpster. Heavy wet wood adds up on weight faster than people expect, so if you're clearing a lot of it, mention the volume and we'll talk about whether 2 tons covers you.
