- Carlton County licence — the City defines a collector as one specifically licensed by the County of Carlton (Ord. 130).
- Compost site — free for Moose Lake residents, a fee for non-residents and contractors, yard waste only, credit card only.
- Recycling center — the Carlton County staffed center at 3 Earl Ellens Dr, at the city yard waste site.
- After a snowstorm — street parking is prohibited for 48 hours (Ord. 46).
- Public Works — 10 Earl Ellens Drive, 218-485-4247.
What comes out of Moose Lake properties
Garage clean-outs and flooring in 15s, roofing in 10s and 20s, remodels and landscaping in 20s, estate clean-outs in 30s, construction in 30s and 40s, and a 10 or 15 for concrete and dirt — heavy material usually only goes in the smaller boxes. The City compost site takes yard waste only, so construction debris goes to an MPCA-designated site (Ord. 130, § 5). Minnesota keeps these out of the trash and out of landfills: tires (Minn. Stat. 115A.904); major appliances such as fridges, washers, dryers, stoves, water heaters and air conditioners (115A.9561); TVs and monitors with picture tubes (115A.9565); lead-acid car batteries (115A.915); motor oil, oil filters, antifreeze and other vehicle fluids (115A.916); yard waste mixed with trash (115A.931); mercury items such as thermostats and fluorescent tubes (115A.932); and rechargeable batteries and devices with built-in rechargeables (115A.9157). Tell us if a load is yard waste, and before you load an appliance. No paint, solvents, oils, hazardous chemicals, gas cylinders, propane tanks, batteries, medical waste or asbestos.

Sizes
Choosing a container size in Moose Lake
Weight is what usually decides the size, not how much room the pile takes up.
| Size | Dimensions | Capacity | Weight included | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard Dumpster | about 14 ft long × 7.5 ft wide × 3.5 ft high | about 3 pickup truck loads | 1–2 tons | Small kitchen and bathroom remodels, roofing tear-offs, garage and single-room cleanouts, and concrete, tile, asphalt and brick within the weight limit. |

Permits, placement and who may haul in Moose Lake
Who may haul — the rule that matters: no one may collect garbage, rubbish, mixed municipal solid waste or recyclables in the City without first obtaining, and providing proof of, a licence from the County of Carlton (Ord. 130, § 11.A). Carlton County Ordinance 17 says no one may engage in the business of collecting or removing garbage, rubbish, other mixed municipal solid waste and recyclable materials in the County without a County licence (§ VI, subd. 1); the fee is set by the County Board and is not posted online. We found no City franchise. We're licensed and insured.
In the street: “no person may obstruct or excavate any right-of-way without first having obtained the appropriate right-of-way permit from the city” (Ord. 147, § H(a)). We found no fee. Ask Public Works, 218-485-4247. A driveway is the simple spot — give us clear placement instructions and you don't need to be home.
Winter: parking on any public street is prohibited for 48 hours following a snowstorm (Ord. 46). That covers parking; a container belongs on the driveway.
State highways: MnDOT has no permit for setting a private container on trunk-highway right-of-way, and Minnesota law makes it a misdemeanor to obstruct a highway or place any object within its limits (Minn. Stat. 160.2715). Beside a state highway the container goes on private property, never in the right-of-way. We check the exact address.
Covered loads: Minnesota bars driving a load that can drop, sift, leak or blow out (Minn. Stat. 169.81, subd. 5). Keep debris level with the top rim — overfilled containers can't be legally transported.
Remodel or tear-down: Minnesota requires appliances, tires, mercury items, batteries, oils, electronics and household hazardous waste to be taken out before renovation or demolition starts (Minn. R. 7035.0805). Demolition debris means concrete, brick, asphalt, untreated wood, masonry, glass and similar building parts — never asbestos (Minn. R. 7035.0300, subp. 30). Asbestos work needs an MDH-licensed contractor, who notifies the Minnesota Department of Health at least 5 calendar days ahead (Minn. Stat. 326.74); a homeowner working in their own single-family home is exempt from the licence (326.72). For many demolitions — commercial buildings and larger residential buildings — the MPCA must be notified 10 working days ahead. Asbestos never goes in our containers; tell us if you find any.

How it works
Booking a dumpster in Moose Lake
Booking a container here takes one phone call and about five minutes.
Step 1: Call and tell us the job
One short conversation. We ask the address, what you are clearing — a cleanout, a renovation, a roof, a yard, a job site — roughly how much there is, and how much room the driveway or lot gives us.
Step 2: We size it and quote it flat
You get a flat-rate quote whenever possible that covers delivery, pickup, disposal, the standard rental period and an included weight allowance. If a smaller box does the job we will say so. If it is concrete, shingles or dirt, we say up front that weight decides the size.
Step 3: Delivered where you want it
The driver sets the container on the driveway, lot or job site where you asked, on a flat, solid surface rather than the lawn. Often same-day or next-day, when scheduling allows. You do not need to be home.
Step 4: Load it at your pace
Keep it level with or below the top rim and keep the problem items out — paint and solvents, oil and fuel, chemicals, tires, batteries, propane tanks and gas cylinders, medical waste, asbestos, TVs and computers, and fridges, washers, stoves and other major appliances. Need more time or a swap mid-job? One call.
Step 5: We haul it and dispose of it right
The load is secured for the road and goes to a facility permitted to take it, with metal, concrete and yard debris diverted from landfills whenever possible. You get your driveway back the way you left it.
Prefer to talk it through?
A two-minute call gets the size right, a straight answer on price and a delivery window.

Local answers
Dumpster rental in Moose Lake — common questions
Is Moose Lake same-day?
Same-day or next-day is available in many service areas depending on schedule availability — Moose Lake is about 53 minutes from the yard. Call (218) 522-8487 early to reserve your spot.
Who licenses haulers in Moose Lake?
City code requires collectors to hold, and show proof of, a Carlton County licence (Ord. 130, Sec. 11.A). Moose Lake is outside the WLSSD district.
Can I take construction debris to the City compost site?
No. The compost site takes yard waste only. Construction debris goes to an MPCA-designated site under City code — a roll-off handles it.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in a Moose Lake street?
Yes, to obstruct a right-of-way you need a City right-of-way permit (Ord. 147). A driveway is simpler.
