  On 4/19 I had a dumpster from dumpsters.com dropped in my driveway for dirt removal. The agreement was that I would rent a 10-yard dumpster and it would be picked up on 4/22. When the driver arrived to pick up on 4/22, he had no idea that it was dirt and said his truck would not be able to handle a load this size. He said he would come back with a bigger truck to pick up.
  
  I was then contacted by Jeanine at dumpsters.com the same day who left a voicemail and said the driver dropped off a 20-yard dumpster by mistake. I was also told that I would need to offload half the dumpster into a new one that I would have to rent and pay for. Not knowing the difference between a 20 and a 10 yard, this was a huge shock. I had always believed the driver had dropped the dumpster I was contracted to receive.
  
  I called back and was told that supervisor would call me back shortly. I was then contacted by Jamie, and I informed her it would take me weeks to offload that much dirt and there is no way I could do it by myself. I gave the option for them to hire someone to move the dirt since this was their error. Jamie replied that this is not a service we provide. She was adamant that I move the dirt myself. Otherwise, it will be $25 a day for every day I have the container over the allotted rental time. I let her know that they need to figure it out and call me back. I heard back today from dumpsters.com by emails saying the same thing. I am not sure why this is such an issue? There are multiple options for general laborers who will move the dirt to a new container. This is such an easy fix, and this is “not a service we provide” is not an acceptable answer or solution.
  
  All I ask is for the company to fix their error. I do not nor I have I ever had any intentions of moving tens of thousands of pounds of material to a new container and hurting my body. I will not be paying $25 dollars a day because the company refuses to correct their mistake.

  We apologize for the frustration caused by the delivery of a larger than anticipated dumpster. Our team has been in contact with the customer alongside our dispatch to work to provide an amicable solution. At this time, the materials have been offloaded to an additional dumpster provided to the customer at no additional cost. We have confirmed with our dispatch that both dumpsters have been successfully removed and this issue has been resolved. Once again, we apologize for any inconveniences associated with this order and appreciate the customer's cooperation in resolving the issue.

  I rented a dumpster from this company that was delivered on 1/10/2024. During drop off at my home, the truck hit and damaged my property. They hit the stationary bricks that make up the garden bed along my driveway. This garden bed is shared with my neighbor and the result of this accident also loosened bricks on his property line. I opened a complaint with their claims department but they denied the claim. The in house claims person stated that property damage is acceptable because there is "inherent risk." I completely disagree.
  
  My home contractor had rented from this company previously for my property. Each time the driver was able to successfully drop off and pick up the dumpster without causing any damage. This time, the driver was not careful and caused damage that will cost MUCH MORE to repair than what it cost to rent the dumpster.
  
  They can call it what they want, but it's clear the the driver was not careful and caused property damage. They want to call it "inherent risk" so they can say they aren't responsible. Working with their claims person has been a nightmare. They provided a video from the truck to help show proof no wrong doing happened, but the video didn't capture the rear of the truck. It only showed a video of the driver's face and the FRONT of the truck; but this isn't useful because it happened from the rear of the truck.
  
  If you are considering using this company, I highly recommend you reconsider. During my conversation with their in house claims person, he made it absolutely clear that a level of property damage caused by the delivery truck is expected and acceptable. Again, because he labels it as "inherent risk".
  
  If you're still not convinced and want to rent from this company, be sure to take video of the drop off and pick up in case you need to sue them. They won't take responsibility for property damage caused by their services.

  We apologize for the damage that occurred as we value the safety of our customers' property. Our team has worked with our local dispatch regarding this service address in an effort to thoroughly review the matter. A video of this service was obtained and reviewed, in which there was no gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Therefore, our damage department requested any additional video footage that the customer might have to support otherwise. At this point in time, none has been provided. Based on the details of this claim, our organization does not have a reason to assume or arrange any repairs. However, as a measure of customer service, the customer was offered a $50 credit towards the repair.

  There are few problems with the response provided by the business. I will address each one.

  Business has stated: "A video of this service was obtained and reviewed, in which there was no gross negligence or intentional misconduct."

  The problem is the video(s) do not show what happened from the rear end of the truck. The damage was caused from the rear end of the truck. The videos provided are from cameras mounted on the FRONT of the truck and mounted on the driver's dash. There is absolutely no feed from the video that shows what happened from the rear of the truck. Therefore there is no possible way they can conclude there was no gross negligence. We have eye witness account that there was gross negligence.

  Business has stated: "However, as a measure of customer service, the customer was offered a $50 credit towards the repair."

  Unacceptable. The quoted repair costs I received from a reputable repair person states it will cost $926.50 to return the damage to prior condition.

  As our team has explained to the customer, the footage provided is the sole footage acquired from the truck, hence our request for his provision of any alternate angle. Our organization has a thorough damage complaint review process that works to collect all details and events associated with a complaint. This is in an effort to appropriately resolve the matter for our customers. Since no footage has been provided to substantiate any damage and per the terms, our team is not liable for this repair. The $50 credit already offered to the customer remains available for their acceptance. This is our final determination.

  $50 does not come remotely close to covering the damage caused by their truck and driver. We saw the damage happen in real time and we were instructed to report it to the office. The business is making their conclusion of non-negligence based on surveillance that doesn't capture what actually happened. Therefore, they can run through their review process as much as they want, but they're doing it with video surveillance that doesn't capture the incident directly.

  I don't have the footage because we saw it happen in real time. How is it possible to record something after it happened? We TRUSTED the driver to be careful because previous drivers had no issue dropping off the dumpster. If the business wants to keep saying $50 is sufficient, their response cannot be accepted.

  We started using Dumpsters.com in February of 2023. So far, we've paid $3,751.79 in fees in less than one year. They were in charge of doing weekly dumpster pickups at our location.
  
  We started with a small dumpster and that did not work for us, so we upgraded to a larger dumpster with a higher monthly cost and also paid the additional drop off fees. Neither of these options worked for us. This should have amounted to a minor issue where the service is simply terminated with no additional fees, but that did not occur.
  
  Here are just some of the issues I've had to deal with :
  - I was not aware that the agreement I signed with them was for 3-years. The contract term was carefully hidden inside a section that is labeled "* For Office Use Only *" and the dates are written in small print, without a clear heading or title that should have been labeled as CONTRACT TERM. It's obvious that this was done on purpose to mislead people. All the other sections of the contract are clearly labeled.
  - Within less than a month, we were notified that our monthly fee will be increased "due to rising landfill costs, disposal fees, and fuel costs"
  - I can't get out of the contract without paying them a SIGNIFICANT termination fee.
  - We've had many instances where the dumpsters are not getting emptied all the way. As far as I'm concerned, this is a breach of contract.
  - During the course of reporting this issue and trying to get it resolved, we were accused of refilling the dumpsters to get free dumps.
  - I had to start recording videos to prove what was going on.
  - As a way to reduce my contract cost, they offered a different service with a different price, and then when we agreed to it, they changed the price and raised it again.
  - They are restrictive on the types of trash they will accept.

  On 10 August 2023, I ordered a 10-yd dumpster with a capacity of 8 tons for delivery on 11 August for $395. The terms clear that there would be an additional charge if the contents weighed over 8 tons upon pickup.
  To ensure I did not overload the dumpster, I only loaded it halfway with 5 cubic yards of dry dirt. I also used the weight calculator provided by Dumpsters.com to estimate the weight of the contents to ensure it would not exceed 8 tons. Finally, I reached out to a Dumpster.com representative who provided me a number to which I could send a picture of the contents to determine the risk of being overloaded. The representative responded "that's fine" and even added that I could fill more “towards the back end of it" (although I did not), recommending that if I fill up to 6-8 inches from the top I would not exceed the 8 ton weight limit. Despite these assertions that I could fill more, I left the dumpster only half full with 5 cubic yards of dry dirt to be certain I would not exceed the 8 ton weight limit. I requested pickup on 15 August.
  On 14 September, one month after pickup, I received a charge of $414 and a notification that it was due to the dumpster having contents that weighed 14.9 tons upon pickup. Dumpsters.com has not provided empty and full weight tickets from the landfill to prove this, nor is it possible that the 5 cu yds of dry dirt in the dumpster when it was picked up from my residence could have weiged 14.9 tons, even if the truck parked until a rainstorm and then delivered to the landfill. That weight would require that the 10-yard dumpster be filled to 150% volume capacity with something at least as heavy as solid concrete.
  I provided pictures of the Dumpster taken the morning it was picked-up that show it is approximately 50% full of dry dirt. I believe this charge was issued in error, or that Dumpsters.com may have been overcharged by the third-party from whom they rent the dumpsters, but I should not be help liable for this mistake.

  

  Business Response

  We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration experienced by this customer. This customer is correct, this additional weight fee was billed in error. This was communicated to the customer and refunded. It's rare that billing errors such as this one occur and we certainly want to take ownership when they do.

  Had them as a dumpster provider for over two years, the minute I needed to change the card on file (due to changing banks) and yes I did forget to update it for a month or so, they led me to believe I was just updating my service agreement with the new card, as it turns out, they tacked on an additional two years. NEVER once did they tell me I was extending my contract with the new card. So I filled out the card info and signed. Then (I know I should’ve read it more) I see that they extended two years, I canceled literally an hour after signing it. Now they are trying to collect for TWO years of service I never received.
  
  They mislead me into thinking I was just updating the credit card on file. The screenshot from the email clearly shows thats what they told me I was signing.

  Our team has been in contact with the customer and confirmed that the contract has been canceled and the early termination fees have been waived. We believe this to be amicably resolved. Otherwise, the customer has been instructed to work with our team with any future questions.

  On April 24th, 2023 I ordered a Waste removal service - 15 yard dumpster -Mixed Debris - 1
  ton weight limit through dumpsters.com for a ten day period. On the website it has you select the type of materials that will fill the dumpster, the reason for your request (mine was to move), and the time period of ten days. My dumpster was scheduled to be delivered on April 27th for ten days and would be picked up on May 7th at the address listed. The invoice they emailed me stated these dates for my request with a total of $475 which I paid in full and provided my credit card information ahead of time as required. I filled the dumpster as stated within the request during my moving process and made sure that it met the requirements stated for them to be able to properly and safely remove the dumpster at pick up. A few weeks after the scheduled pick up date I was informed by the new tenant that the dumpster had yet to be picked up. I called the company to let them know they had forgotten to pick up the dumpster and to see if there was anything additional I needed to do. The customer service agent I spoke to was extremely rude and told me that I should have called to schedule a pick up and would now be charged for each day after the ten day window. I explained to the employee I paid for a ten day rental and the invoice I received when I reserved the dumpster stated it was a ten day rental and the ten day period would end on May 7th, I explained that I had moved which was why the ten day dumpster had been ordered. The employee was extremally rude and refused to let me speak to a manager or someone else. I explained that the emails I received were not clear about the fact I would have to schedule a pickup despite having specifically paid for a ten day period. They charged me an additional $550, a total of $1025 for a ten day rental and sent no reminders, made no calls to me until I called them letting them know they forgot to pickup and charged my card without my permission.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 06/26/2023

  We apologize that the customer is dissatisfied with their rental experience, as it’s always our intention to provide great customer service and useful, transparent terms. This customer placed an order online, and as such, information regarding extra fees was presented to the customer at the time of order. In addition, an order confirmation email is sent to the customer once booked, wherein it is stated "Remember to schedule the pickup. Please contact us using the information below before the last day of your service period to avoid late fees" and includes a link to schedule "Visit our website and fill out the schedule a pick-up form." Additionally, four pickup reminder emails were sent to the customer with resources to schedule the removal of the dumpster. Our team takes customer service seriously, and thoroughly reviewed the customer's experience. A supervisor was in contact with the customer to highlight the documentation provided to the customer throughout the rental experience. While we regret that the customer remains dissatisfied, information was provided to the customer throughout their rental dictating that they are responsible for scheduling the removal of the dumpster. This charge remains valid and will not be refunded.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
  
  
  I attached all of the information I received from the business which did not clearly indicate I would need to call to schedule a pick up for the dumpster. The online platform where I made the request indicated the rental was for ten days, ending on May 7th. Furthermore the company asked what the dumpster would be utilized for in which I explained it was required for moving purposes. I paid for a ten day rental because I only wanted the dumpster for 10 days and the invoice indicated the last day would be May 7th. It was my understanding that would be the date it would be picked up the same way I was not required to call and make an additional request to have the dumpster delivered. If I had needed an extension I would have called and requested one. When I called to inform them that they had not picked up the dumpster after I moved and after the selected last day of rental they continued to charge me until it was convenient for them to pick up the dumpster despite my previous requests. I would not have rented the dumpster from them if I knew they were just going to drop it off until they were notified. I paid for what I requested which was a 10 day rental. The invoice clearly stated my last day of the rental was May 7th. They did not inform me that I was supposed to call and schedule a separate pick up than the date they had provided me and did not inform me of the additional charge until AFTER I called them trying to find out why the had not picked up the dumpster. Furthermore they charged my card without my authorization. I would like a refund of the difference because the dumpster was ready for pickup as requested by May 7th and met all of the guidelines to be picked up. I had attached all information I received from the company

  We kindly request for this complaint to be marked resolved. Many of the documents provided by the customer, including 'Order_Confirmation_********.pdf', 'Dumpsters.com Revised Order Confirmation.pdf' and 'Important_ Dumpster Removal Guidelines.pdf', state that the customer needs to schedule their pickup. Furthermore, to avoid instances such as these, the customer is presented with a force-field in the online ordering process where they must acknowledge their duty to schedule a pickup. The customer cannot complete the order without agreeing to this aspect of the service. Attached is the exact wording presented to the customer. We take customer service very seriously and own any failures that could occur. However, we remain firm on our determination here, as our organization delivered on our service commitments promised to the customer.

  As I have explained many times, their website when making this reservation does NOT clearly indicate that a separate phone call needs to be made for pick up. The invoice shows the last day was supposed to be for May 7th and goes over pick up instructions required and that additional days needed would be an extra charge. I never requested additional days because I only needed the dumpster for ten days which is what I made the reservation for and had it ready and prepared for pick up on May 7th as indicated. This company deceived me into believing I had a ten day rental during my moving process and would have allowed the bill to continue to rack up additional days to make an unfair profit off of me. I will be pursuing legal action for false advertising if they are unwilling to refund the difference. I called this company repeatedly once I was informed they did not pick up the dumpster on the last day I had reserved it for in order to make more money.

  I ordered a 20 yd dumpster from ************* on 4/25/23 to be delivered on 6/8/23. Order # ********. On June 7, 2023 ***** ******** *rom ************* called and stated he would need an extra $250 then changed to $175 or the dumpster would not be delivered. This dumpster was for a demo project and a crew was ready to work the weekend to get it completed for a 86 yr old widower. When ************* was contact via email and a phone call to credit back the $175 that was automatically charged to the credit card on file, ***** stated that the charge was necessary because it was costing them more money than they anticipated due to the area. The call was made less than 24 hrs of delivery and ***** said if the money wasn't paid, the dumpster would not be delivered. Extortion. This call should have been made weeks prior so we could have made other arrangements. A 26 yd trailer with wire fencing was delivered.

However, when it was time to pick the dumpster up I continue to get excuses and promises, but Dumpster.com has failed to pick up the dumpster causing continued delays in my move. I am unable to access my driveway for longer than expected. I need to be out of this property in a few days and the dumpster is still in my driveway.
  
  I am being told I am on the schedule with each call or email and they still do not show up.
  
  The dumpster is still in my driveway.
