The Royal City’s Trusted Disposal Service
New Westminster is the oldest city in Western Canada, but it’s far from sleepy. With high-density developments rising along the Quay, heritage homes being restored in Queen’s Park, and constant activity in the Sapperton industrial district, space is at a premium and logistics can be tricky.
At Trash King, we specialize in navigating New West’s unique landscape. From the steep hills of The Uplands to the narrow alleyways of the West End, our drivers have the experience to place your bin safely and legally. Whether you are a homeowner, contractor, or business manager, we provide affordable, reliable bin rentals to keep your project moving.
Why New West Chooses Trash King
Operating in New Westminster requires local knowledge. You can’t just drop a bin anywhere in a city known for its hills and busy streets.
-
Hillside Experts: New West is famous for its steep grades. Our drivers are trained to safely position bins on sloped driveways in neighbourhoods like Victory Heights and Massey Heights, using blocking techniques to ensure stability and prevent property damage.
-
Permit Guidance: Space is tight in Downtown and Uptown. If you don’t have a driveway and need to place a bin on the street, we can guide you through the City of New Westminster’s Street Occupancy Permit process.
-
Heritage Care: We treat your property with respect. For older homes with delicate driveways or pavers, we place protective wood boards under the bin rollers to prevent scratches and gouges.
-
Local Recycling: We are committed to diverting waste from the landfill. We sort your load to ensure wood, metal, cardboard, and clean drywall are recycled effectively.
Dumpster Sizes for Every Project
We have a bin for every job, whether you are clearing out a condo locker or demolishing a garage.
Residential & Condo Bins
-
10-Yard “Rock Box”: The only safe choice for heavy materials like concrete, bricks, or soil. Essential for landscaping projects where weight is a factor.
-
12-Yard Bins: Compact and driveway-friendly. Perfect for garage cleanouts, spring cleaning, or decluttering before a move in the West End.
-
15-Yard Bins: Our most popular size for kitchen and bathroom renovations. It fits easily in most single-family driveways.
Construction & Commercial Bins
-
20-Yard Bins: Great for large deck removals, roofing shingles, and major home renovations in Queen’s Park.
-
30-Yard Bins: The standard for new construction sites, demolition debris, and large estate cleanouts.
-

Delivery: We drop the bin off on time. We place it carefully to ensure you can still access your home or garage.
-
We Haul It: Text or call when you’re done. We pick it up and transport the waste to a licensed facility for sorting.
Frequently Asked Questions (New Westminster)
Do I need a permit to put a dumpster on the street? Yes. The City of New Westminster requires a Street Occupancy Permit if you place a bin on public property (street, sidewalk, or boulevard). Fees typically range from $50+ per day depending on the street type. We strongly recommend clearing space in your driveway or parking pad to avoid these extra costs and paperwork.
I live on a very steep hill. Can I still rent a bin? Yes, but safety is our priority. We need to know about the slope beforehand. We may ask for photos or suggest placing the bin at a specific angle. In some extreme cases, we may recommend a “live load” (where the driver waits while you load) if leaving the bin is unsafe.
How do I dispose of old drywall? New West is home to one of the main drywall recycling facilities, but rules are strict.
-
New Drywall (1990+): Can be recycled if clean and date-stamped.
-
Older Drywall: Must be tested for asbestos.
-
Always keep drywall separate from your general waste bin.
Can I put concrete in a 20-yard bin? No. Concrete is too heavy. You must use a 10-yard bin (often called a Rock Box) for concrete, soil, brick, or asphalt. Larger bins filled with these materials cannot be legally lifted or transported.
