Is Dumpster Rentals fraud?

• Subscription Services: Users may be signed up for a subscription plan for ongoing dumpster rental services, leading to recurring charges.
• Overage Fees: If the amount of waste exceeds the agreed limit, additional fees can apply for overage.
• Late Fees: Returning the dumpster after the agreed rental period can result in late fees.
• Delivery and Pickup Charges: Some users report extra charges for the delivery and pickup of the dumpster, which may not be included in the base price.
• Damage Fees: Customers may face charges for any damage incurred to the dumpster during rental.
• Surcharges for Specific Materials: Certain types of waste (e.g., hazardous materials) can impose additional fees.
• Minimum Rental Periods: Rental agreements may require a minimum rental period, leading to unnecessary charges if a shorter period is needed.
• User Error: Incorrect order specifications could lead to unexpected charges, such as ordering a larger size than needed.
• Administrative Fees: Some users noticed unexpected administrative fees on their bills.

If you see this charge and aren’t expecting it, you have various options.

First, try to contact the dumpster.com via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the dumpster.com refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute. Record screenshot evidence from your prior conversations with dumpster.com, and use that to open your credit card dispute. Tell your bank or credit card issuer that you do not recognize the charge and do not recall signing up for the service.
