Most driveway drops don't need a permit. If the container has to sit on a public street or sidewalk, contact the City of Royal Oak about a street-use permit first, and allow time for it to be issued.
See our dumpster permit guide for what to ask.

For remodels in Royal Oak's older homes, plan by weight: plaster and tile fill a 15 or 20 yard's allowance before its volume. Cleanouts of furniture and boxes go by volume instead.
