Restrictions

At AmeriCans, we are committed to maintaining environmental safety and adhering to all disposal regulations. To protect the environment and ensure proper waste management, certain items cannot typically be placed in our dumpsters. However, we understand the challenges these items present and offer specialized disposal services for an additional fee. Below is a comprehensive list of items that are restricted but can still be hauled off with our assistance:


  • Electronics - Some electronic devices are restricted from standard disposal because they often contain harmful materials like lead and mercury. These require recycling at specialized facilities to prevent environmental contamination. Need help disposing of electronics? Let AmeriCans assist you with eco-friendly solutions.
  • White Goods - Commonly known as large household appliances, often require special handling and disposal methods due to their size, materials, and potential environmental impact. Items like refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, and water heaters are included in this category. Proper disposal ensures compliance with local regulations, reduces environmental harm, and often allows for the recycling of valuable materials like metals and wiring.
  • Hazardous Waste - Examples include paints, solvents, asbestos, and medical waste. These materials pose risks to public health and the environment if not handled correctly. Proper disposal requires compliance with strict regulations. Contact AmeriCans for guidance on removing hazardous materials from your property.
  • Tires - Due to their unique properties, tires are not suitable for landfill disposal. They can trap gases and rise to the surface over time, creating logistical and environmental issues. AmeriCans offers tire recycling and haul-off services for your convenience.
  • Mattresses - Mattresses are cumbersome and difficult to dispose of in landfills. Many of their components, such as springs and foam, require recycling. With AmeriCans, you can arrange responsible disposal without the hassle.
  • Household Garbage - Standard household trash and organic waste are better suited for municipal garbage services. Our dumpsters are designed for bulk waste like construction debris, but we can help you coordinate household garbage removal when needed.
  • Batteries - Certain types of batteries, including lithium-ion and lead-acid, contain hazardous chemicals that can harm the environment. Safe disposal involves recycling through approved facilities. AmeriCans can arrange proper battery disposal for you.
  • Chemicals - Chemicals, such as cleaning agents, pesticides, and industrial products, can pollute soil and water if not disposed of properly. AmeriCans provides safe removal options for these substances to ensure compliance with environmental standards.
  • Tanks and Fuel Containers - LP tanks, propane tanks, fuel tanks, and gas cans require special handling to ensure safety and environmental protection. These items often contain residual fuel or pressurized gas, which can pose hazards if not disposed of properly.
