Renting a bin in Burnaby

Burnaby's own street-use rules sit alongside Metro Vancouver's shared disposal system, and knowing both before you book keeps a bin rental from stalling at the permit stage or the transfer station scale.

Sources: City of Burnaby - Temporary Container Placement; Metro Vancouver - Tipping Fee; Metro Vancouver - Hazardous Wastes

The City of Burnaby's Temporary Container Placement permit covers any bin, dumpster, or trailer placed on a street, roadway, or boulevard. The fee runs $17 per day plus a one-time $113 administration charge. Applications go in through the city's online permit system at least 5 working days before delivery, alongside a site plan showing exact placement and a minimum $2 million liability insurance certificate naming the city as co-insured. Containers can't sit within 15 metres of a crosswalk or 6 metres of a lane or driveway, and lane placement isn't permitted at all.

A container placed entirely on private property, such as a driveway or side yard, doesn't need this permit, which is the quickest option for most renovation and cleanout jobs across Burnaby's neighbourhoods.

Haulers serving Burnaby generally route to the United Boulevard Recycling and Waste Centre, the Metro Vancouver facility just over the municipal boundary in Coquitlam that replaced the older Coquitlam Transfer Station in 2022. It handles garbage and construction and demolition debris for the surrounding municipalities.

Metro Vancouver's 2026 tipping fees run around $182 per tonne for garbage loads under 1 tonne and roughly $162 per tonne between 1 and 8 tonnes, with construction and demolition residual waste near $194 per tonne. A $5 transaction fee applies per load, and a built-in generator levy adds a regional charge to every tonne processed. These per-tonne and per-load charges are the real cost driver behind any Burnaby bin rental, regardless of which hauler handles the job.

Metro Vancouver keeps paint, solvents, fuel, propane cylinders and asbestos out of ordinary garbage loads. Its rules distinguish product-stewardship materials from hazardous and operational-impact materials; designated recycling streams may accept some items separately. Confirm an eligible receiving facility before loading them.

Metro Vancouver lists clean wood and yard trimmings at $139 per tonne and mixed organics at $175 per tonne, with separate minimums and acceptance limits. These rates are not below every garbage tier: garbage ranges from $136 to $182 per tonne by load size. Keep materials separated to use the appropriate recycling stream and avoid disposal-ban surcharges.

Tips for renting in Burnaby

Avoid surprises with quick tips our haulers wish every customer knew.

  • Keep the bin fully on your own driveway or lot whenever the site allows it. That avoids Burnaby's $17-per-day container placement fee plus the $113 administration charge entirely.

  • If street placement is unavoidable, apply for the Temporary Container Placement permit at least 5 working days ahead and have your site plan and $2 million liability insurance certificate ready.

  • Tell the hauler upfront whether the bin will sit on the street or on private property. That single detail changes how they plan placement, permitting, and price for the job.

Questions about renting in Burnaby

Straightforward answers about dumpster rentals, delivery windows, and what you can toss.

Pricing depends on the bin size, how long you keep it, and whether it sits on private property or the street. Request quotes from the haulers shown above for a number matched to your job, and expect 5% GST added to the final price.

Yes, if the container sits on city property such as a street, roadway, or boulevard, Burnaby requires a Temporary Container Placement permit. The published cost is $17 per day plus a one-time $113 administration fee, and containers used for moving purposes are capped at 5 days on the street.

The nearest Metro Vancouver facility for Burnaby haulers is the United Boulevard Recycling and Waste Centre in neighbouring Coquitlam, which processes garbage and construction and demolition waste by weight.

Bin sizes for Burnaby jobs range from small units suited to a single-room cleanout up to large roll-offs for a full gut renovation. Share your project scope with the hauler so they can match the bin size and tonnage allowance to the job.

Paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, and asbestos are not accepted in a standard load under Metro Vancouver's regional rules, and a minimum surcharge applies to any inspected load found to contain them. These need a separate hazardous waste drop-off.

Containers on private property do not need a Burnaby container permit. Street placement requires City approval; container placement is not permitted in lanes.
