Dumpster Depot

Dumpster Depot Re-think Your Waste The ultimate objective is to achieve Zero Waste. Customers are saving a total of $462,000 in hauling and landfill tipping fees per year.

Dumpster Depot was founded in 2004 in Aiken, S.C., by Norman Dunagan, to provide waste removal services for commercial and construction businesses in the CSRA. Inspired by packaging recycling at his previous employer, Frito-Lay, Dunagan set his goal to re-purpose as much waste as possible and reduce landfill dumping. Dumpster Depot is the only waste removal business in the CSRA to divert more th

an 50% of the collected waste from landfills. Two million pounds of waste are recycled per year; the equivalent of 6600 containers (3-4 tons each) are not dumped into a landfill. The environmental impact is substantial, recycling materials to make carpeting, cardboard, food packaging, water bottles, plastic wrap, etc. Repurposing creates jobs in a jobless economy. In the future, scrap will be considered a valuable resource as is metal today. The Dumpster Depot company is housed in a 26,000-square-foot warehouse on Kershaw Street. Materials are packaged at this site to send to reprocessing/recycling facilities. The Dumpster Depot trucks run on hybrid energy which increases fuel economy by 36%, saving 1,000's of gallons of fuel per year. Being green is instilled in all aspects of the Dumpster Depot. Plan to make more green choices this year. We have the resources available to convert your work space into a zero waste environment. Choose Dumpster Depot for a greener tomorrow.

**Important Weather Update for Friday, September 27th**

Due to severe weather conditions and our commitment to the safety of our team and the community, Dumpster Depot will not be operating today. Our priority is to ensure that our crews are kept safe and off the roads until conditions improve.

For customers scheduled for service today, we will make every effort to catch up on routes as soon as itโ€™s safe and we have access to the landfills. Please leave your cans out, and weโ€™ll work to get service back on track as soon as possible.

We Currently have no power or phones at our office so no one will be there today to answer any additional questions.

If we are unable to service your area tomorrow, weโ€™ll send out another update with revised pickup schedules.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we prioritize safety during this challenging weather. Stay safe, and weโ€™ll keep you informed!

We know it sucks when your garbage doesn't get picked up. We know it happens, but we hate it when it does and try everything we can to ensure it doesn't happen.

So big shout out to Keli, our accounts receivable specialist, who has jumped on the back of a truck to help take care of the backed-up routes due to Debby's deluge.

Teamwork and Creativity are two of our Core Values, and Keli represents them and us amazingly!

The landfills are experiencing difficulties with the heavy, sustained rain - as we all are. This is putting some of our routes behind and we are finishing them as soon as the landfills can catch up. Please be patient and safe over the rest of the week.

Thank you for your patience and for allowing us to serve you.
