Colorado Springs, Colorado
Colorado Springs handles a dumpster in the street as a revocable permit, the same tool it uses for other temporary surface use. The city publishes the conditions but not the fee or the time limit. Here is what we could confirm.
City rules are from October 2026, from Colorado Springs: Revocable permit and 5 other sources. Rules and fees change, so confirm with the city before you place a can in the street.
Because the permit is revocable, a street drop can turn into an early pickup with little notice. Keep the customer's contact on the job and give them a way to reach you. In DumpTracker the customer's project link shows the status and drop window, and they can ask for a swap or pickup from it.
Local dumpster vendors say a can on private property needs no city permit. We found no official text either way. When the can goes on a driveway, mark the footprint and the door side on the satellite map. Write the gate code or the HOA rule in the access notes so the driver has it at the curb.
The Colorado Springs Landfill on Blaney Road, Midway Landfill near Fountain, and Fountain Landfill all list C&D. Drivers can record which one they used on the dump ticket, with net tons and a photo.
The rules don't change because you have software. Keeping track of them does.
Log the permit number, who issued it, and the start and end dates on the project. If the permit ends before the scheduled pickup, the project tells you before the city does.
Place the can on the satellite map at its real size, mark the door side, and add access notes. The driver sees the same thing on their next stop.
Yes. A dumpster in the right-of-way falls under a Revocable Permit, applied for with the Temporary Surface Permit Application. Land Use Review at 719-385-5905 takes questions. The city does not publish the fee or how long a can may stay, so ask before the drop.
No more than one fifth of the width of any paved sidewalk. It also must not block cars or people walking.
City code mentions a city-issued trash hauler's license, but we could not find the section that sets it up. Confirm with the city before you assume either way.
It gives the office a day plan with a lane per driver and a satellite placement map for each drop. Drivers get access notes and Open in maps on their phone. Customers get texts from your own number and a link where they can ask for a pickup.
