Dumpster Rental in Thurmont

The Gateway to the Mountains: Main Street cleanouts and remodels at the foot of Catoctin Mountain.

Thurmont was incorporated as Mechanicstown in 1831 and renamed in 1894; the name means “Gateway to the Mountains,” and Catoctin Mountain Park and Cunningham Falls State Park are close by. It is home to about 6,300 people, with a Main Street district and neighbourhoods spreading out from it.

We come up US 15 from Frederick, about fifteen miles, so Thurmont is usually a next-morning delivery, sometimes same-day if you call early. Most jobs are cleanouts, remodels and roofs on the town’s homes, and a 15 or 20-yard covers most of them.

Do I need a permit in Thurmont?

Thurmont’s street rules are in Chapter 126 (Streets) of its code, which we could not read, so we do not claim a rule for a container in a Town street. Before any placement off private property we ask the Town Office (615 East Main Street, 301-271-7313). What the Town does publish: before a building permit is issued, Frederick County’s Division of Permits and Inspections must approve the plans and issue a County building permit (Zoning § 2.2.2(C)), and a Town zoning certificate is needed before excavation or construction (§ 2.1.1(C)). On your own driveway the zoning chapter we read sets no rule for a temporary container.

FAQ

Thurmont dumpster rental questions

  • Is a permit needed for a dumpster in Thurmont?
    We could not read Thurmont’s streets chapter, so we do not claim a rule; we ask the Town Office (301-271-7313) before any placement off your own property. Building work needs a County building permit and a Town zoning certificate.
  • How long does delivery to Thurmont take?
    It is about fifteen miles north of Frederick on US 15, so we usually deliver the next morning. Call early and same-day is sometimes possible.
  • What size for a Thurmont cleanout?
    A 15-yard for most single-house cleanouts, a 20-yard for a whole house with a garage and shed. See our sizes page or call and we will size it with you.
  • Can you deliver during Colorfest weekend?
    Yes, but the town is very busy that weekend, so book ahead and expect us to work around the crowds.
