Raleigh averages about 46 inches of precipitation a year. Rain-soaked debris weighs more, so tarp the dumpster when you're not loading it and plan roof tear-offs around dry days.

Street placement is where permits come in. A dumpster on your own driveway or lot usually needs none, but one on a Raleigh, NC street, sidewalk or alley falls under local right-of-way rules. The official page:

We link to the official page and don't summarize its rules, which can change. See also our dumpster permit guide.
Which size fits Raleigh projects?
Where space is tight, as in much of Raleigh, a 10 or 15 yard container is easier to place in a lot or on the street. Whole-house cleanouts and big remodels still call for a 20.
Compare sizes: 10 yard, 15 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard, 40 yard, or read what size dumpster you need.
