Do I Need a Permit to Rent a Dumpster in Essex County?

Permit requirements depend on where the dumpster rental will be placed. If you're planning to place the dumpster on your driveway or anywhere else on your personal property, you'll likely not need a permit to rent a dumpster in Essex County.

However, if you are placing the dumpster on public property, like a county road, you will need to apply and pay for a permit through the Essex County Department of Public Works. Dumpster permit requirements can change from town to town. To get a better idea of the specific regulations, search for your town on our dumpster rental permits page.
