★☆☆☆☆ Poor Service and Fraudulent Overweight Charges
I strongly advise anyone considering Affordable Dumpster LLC to look elsewhere. My experience was defined by unprofessionalism, delays, and what I believe to be a fraudulent charge.
The problems began immediately after I provided my credit card information. The dumpster was not delivered on the scheduled day. The excuse given was that a "sister company" was unavailable. This initial failure set the tone for the entire ordeal.
The most serious issue occurred after the dumpster was picked up. Days later, I received a surprise invoice claiming the load was overweight and demanding hundreds of dollars in extra fees from the "landfill." I had specifically ordered a 15-cubic-yard dumpster and filled it exactly to the brim with acceptable materials—no concrete, bricks, or prohibited items. When I challenged the overweight claim and requested proof, such as a weight ticket from the facility, they provided nothing. It appears this is a deceptive tactic: get your card on file, then invent a problem to charge more without evidence.
This company operates on bad faith. The delay was inconvenient, but the baseless overweight charge is outright dishonest. You cannot trust their initial quote, as the real bill seems to be whatever they decide to charge you after the fact. Save yourself the hassle and dispute—choose a more reputable company.

Our company uses Affordable Dumpster often for job dumpsters as well as dumpsters at two of our office locations. Jim is fair priced and prompt.

Horror stories. Everything went good as far as delivery but 2 months later they are trying to collect another $173.00. they say the dumpster weighed over 2000 pounds what was allowed. I don't see it.
