Dumpster Rental in Highfill, AR

Permits, placement and who may haul in Highfill

Who may haul — we check first: Highfill's Ordinance 2016-07 authorized a contract granting a private hauler an exclusive franchise to provide waste services in Highfill. The agreement (20 October 2016) gives the contractor the sole and exclusive right to collect and transfer residential and commercial solid waste — but not from industrial-zoned areas or the airport area — and defines construction and demolition waste separately; commercial customers are businesses whose volume of waste needs dumpster service. The first term ran five years, to 31 December 2021, with automatic five-year renewal unless notice is given. The ordinance is a scanned document, so this is a summary, not a quotation. We check Highfill's rules with City Hall, (479) 736-5711 ext. 2, before booking. We're licensed and insured.

In the street: Highfill's municipal code book wasn't readable online, so we found no street, truck-parking or right-of-way rule — which isn't the same as there being none. Driveway first. You don't need to be home as long as we know where the container goes and the spot is clear of vehicles and obstacles. Leave about 60 feet of clear approach for the truck and about 25 feet of overhead clearance, free of power lines and branches. Our smaller containers fit easily in most driveways, and we use boards when needed to protect the driveway.

Collection hours: Highfill's trash service page gives collection hours of 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., with carts on Wednesday and dumpsters on Thursday.

County hauler rules: Arkansas leaves hauler licensing to its regional solid waste districts (8 CAR § 60-202). Benton County's district rules say “A person who engages in hauling solid waste within Benton County must obtain a license from the district” to collect solid waste in the district or transport it for disposal or storage there (8 CAR § 110-603(b)); every roll-off container must show the business name and phone number “in letters no less than four inches … high on at least two (2) sides of the unit” (§ 110-612(b)(4)); and a District licence “does not supersede any local government's issuance of an exclusive franchise for hauling within its boundaries” (§ 110-609(d)) — which is why the local rules on this page matter.

State highways: Arkansas holds state highway rights-of-way “inviolate for state highway purposes” (Ark. Code § 27-67-304(a)), and we found no ArDOT permit for setting a container on one — so a container never goes in the right-of-way of I-49, US-71, US-62, US-412 or a state route such as AR-12, AR-72, AR-102 or AR-112. Beside one, it goes on private property.

Covered loads: in Benton County, haulers' vehicles with open storage areas “must be tarped when traveling in excess of thirty-five miles per hour (35 m.p.h.)” (8 CAR § 110-612(b)(2)(B)), and state law bars driving any vehicle that isn't loaded so as to prevent its load from dropping, sifting, leaking or otherwise escaping (Ark. Code § 27-35-110(a)). Keep debris below the top rim — if it's overfilled, we can't legally haul it.

Remodel or tear-down: Arkansas' Asbestos Abatement Rule (20 CAR pt. 860) leaves residential buildings with four or fewer dwelling units out of its definition of a facility (§ 860-104(32)(A)), though disposal rules can still apply. For other buildings, the owner or operator has the building inspected for asbestos before demolition or renovation starts (§ 860-105), files a written notice with the Division of Environmental Quality at least 10 working days before any demolition, “even if no asbestos is present” (§ 860-201(a)), and gives the same notice for a renovation that disturbs at least 260 linear feet on pipes, 160 square feet on other components or 35 cubic feet (§ 860-203). Asbestos never goes in our containers — tell us if an inspection finds any.
