What Projects Is the 5-Yard Bin Best For?
The 5-yard bin is the right call for focused residential jobs and small contractor projects across Mississauga and West GTA. Here's when to book it:
Residential Projects
- Single bathroom renovation - tile, fixtures, vanity, drywall
- Small kitchen update - cabinets, countertops, flooring
- Wooden deck teardown and replacement
- Single car garage cleanout - junk, furniture, debris
- Junk removal - furniture, appliances, household clutter
- Single room renovation or flooring replacement
- Small backyard cleanup - shrubs, branches, topsoil
Contractor & Construction Projects
- Small reno waste on tight job sites with limited space
- Roofing tear-off on a garage or small outbuilding
- Post-demo cleanup for a single room or interior wall removal
- Light construction debris - drywall scraps, wood, trim
Pro tip for contractors: The 5-yard bin's compact footprint makes it ideal for tight residential sites where a larger bin simply won't fit. WastePro's fleet is purpose-built to access narrow driveways, tight laneways, and congested urban sites that other bin companies can't reach.
5-Cubic Yard Bin Rental Pricing
Option 1 - Solid Heavy Waste Flat Rate: $400
Best for: Dedicated loads of heavy solid material - concrete, brick, asphalt, dirt, gravel.
Solid heavy waste is not weighed at the dump. Your flat rate of $340 covers delivery, pickup, up to one week rental, and disposal — that's it. No weighing, no overage calculation, no surprises.
Option 2 - Mixed Waste Flat Rate: $340
Best for: Homeowners and contractors with a mixed renovation or cleanout load under 1 tonne.
Your flat rate of $340 covers delivery, pickup, up to one week rental, and disposal for loads up to 1 tonne. Mixed waste is weighed at the dump after pickup - if your load comes in under 1 tonne, you pay nothing more. If your load exceeds 1 tonne, we'll let you know the overage in tonnes after weighing and the additional per-tonne charge will apply only to that extra weight.
Not sure if your load will hit the threshold? Call us at 647-477-0537 before booking - we'll help you figure out the most cost-effective option for your project.
Option 3 - Mixed or Solid Waste Per Ton: $220 base + $130/ton
Best for: Any load where you'd rather pay based on actual weight than a flat rate.
Final weight is confirmed at the dump station after pickup - you pay for exactly what you put in the bin.
No surprises on your invoice. Flat rate solid loads aren't weighed - your price is locked from the moment you book. Flat rate mixed loads are weighed after pickup - if there's an overage, you'll hear from us with the exact amount before anything is charged. Per-tonne loads are billed on confirmed weight only. No fuel surcharges within our service areas, no mystery fees.
What Waste Is Accepted - and What Isn't
✅ Accepted in the 5-Cubic Yard Bin

Not sure if your material is accepted? Call us at 647-477-0537 before booking - we'd rather help you get it right upfront than have a problem on pickup day.
Do You Need a Permit for a Bin in Mississauga or Toronto?
On private property (your driveway): No permit required. The 5-yard bin fits on any standard driveway - just let us know where you want it placed and we'll handle the rest.
On a public street or city right-of-way: A permit from your municipality is required. In Toronto, this is a Boulevard Café / Patio / Bin permit through the city.

Frequently Asked Questions - 5-Cubic Yard Bin Rentals
How long can I keep the bin? The standard rental period is up to one week for flat rate orders. If you need more time, call us at 647-477-0537 at least 48 hours before your pickup date and we'll arrange an extension. Extended rental fees may apply.
What happens if my mixed waste load exceeds 1 tonne? Mixed waste is weighed at the dump after pickup. If your load comes in under 1 tonne, your flat rate covers everything. If it goes over, we'll contact you with the exact overage in tonnes - the additional per-tonne charge applies only to that extra weight, nothing more. If you think your load might be close to the threshold, call us at 647-477-0537 before booking and we'll help you figure out the most cost-effective option.
Can I put concrete or brick in the mixed waste flat rate bin? No - heavy solid materials like concrete, brick, asphalt, and soil need to be booked as a dedicated solid waste order. The good news is the solid heavy waste flat rate is also $340 and isn't weighed at the dump, so your price is locked from the start.
Does the bin fit in my driveway? The 5-yard bin is exactly 12 ft long by 5 ft wide and 2.5 ft tall - it fits comfortably on virtually any driveway, including tight residential properties. If you have concerns about placement, call us and we'll talk you through your options.
