Dumpster rules in Elmhurst
What Elmhurst's own code says about a dumpster:
- On the street or parkway: A dumpster in the right of way (ROW) must get a permit and pay a fee. Flashing light barricades are required when a dumpster is placed in the ROW.
- On your driveway: The code does not state in words whether a dumpster on a private driveway needs a permit. The residential building permit fee list does include a Dumpsters line. A dumpster for a building job may stay on site up to 6 months.
- Fee: Section 24.05 says the ROW dumpster permit is currently $65.00, then $260.00 and $520.00 for renewals. The fee schedule in Chapter 45 lists Dumpsters at $58.00 plus a $250.00 refundable deposit for the Public Works permit. The two figures differ, so confirm with the City.
- Time limit: A ROW dumpster permit lasts 60 days and can be renewed for another 60 days twice. No dumpster may stay in a City ROW more than 180 days.
- Who to ask: Building Department and Public Works, City of Elmhurst.
