Theodore shows up on our run sheet most weeks of the year, not just when someone happens to call. Theodore is an unincorporated community south of Mobile, best known as the home of Bellingrath Gardens and Home, the sprawling 65-acre riverside estate garden that draws visitors from well beyond the county for its azaleas, camellias and holiday lights.
Theodore sits south, in Mobile County. With our yard in Mobile that close, a Theodore delivery is routine work for us — which is the whole reason we can hold a flat price and still show up when we said we would. Household cleanouts, remodels and landscape clearing all run the same way here: describe it once, get a firm number, and we handle the rest.
Dumpster delivery in Theodore, done properly
Between the residential streets near Bellingrath Gardens and newer growth closer to I-10, Theodore keeps us running everything from driveway cleanout boxes to construction roll-offs on a normal week.
- Local dispatch. You speak to someone in Mobile who can picture Theodore's streets, not a call center reading a script.
- Flat-rate quotes. Delivery, the rental window, the tonnage allowance and pickup in a single number.
- Your driveway comes first. The driver walks the Theodore placement with you where possible, and the boards go down before the box does.
- Honest sizing. If a 15 yard will do the job, we will not sell you a 30.
- Licensed and insured in Alabama. Certificates on request for GCs, property managers and HOA boards.

Which dumpster size suits Theodore properties
Sizing in Theodore comes down to density. Light and bulky rewards a bigger box; dense material punishes it. That is why a driveway of broken patio concrete goes in a 10 yard while a garage full of furniture and boxes justifies a 20 or 30. Here is the full range:
| Size | Dimensions | Holds roughly | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | 14 ft × 7.5 ft × 3.5 ft | About 3 pickup-truck loads | Small cleanouts, roofing shingles, concrete and dirt, garage purge |
| 15 Yard | 16 ft × 7.5 ft × 4.5 ft | About 4–5 pickup-truck loads | Kitchen or bath remodel, flooring projects, roofing tear-off, yard work |
| 20 Yard | 22 ft × 7.5 ft × 4.5 ft | About 6 pickup-truck loads | Whole-house cleanout, larger remodel, roofing up to about 50 squares, landscaping |
| 30 Yard | 22 ft × 7.5 ft × 6 ft | About 9 pickup-truck loads | Whole-house projects, commercial cleanouts, new-build construction |
| 40 Yard | 22 ft × 7.5 ft × 8 ft | About 12 pickup-truck loads | Major demolition, large construction sites, commercial fit-outs |
When in doubt, ask. The sizing guide is there if you like detail, and (251) 318-8799 is there if you would rather just describe it.
Permits, placement and local rules in Theodore
Most Theodore jobs sit on private property and never touch a permit desk. Once a container occupies a public street or walk, the local authority wants a right-of-way or obstruction permit first. Because every jurisdiction in Mobile County writes its own rules, Theodore is the office to ask. Alabama law is constant everywhere in the state, and Alabama's statewide solid waste program lays it out; ADEM has the detail on specific items. Our permit guide and prohibited items guide cover both in detail.

FAQs
Dumpster rental in Theodore — your questions
Do you deliver dumpsters to Theodore?
We run to Theodore regularly — it's a straightforward trip south on I-65 to I-10. Whether you're near Bellingrath Gardens or one of the newer subdivisions off I-10, we deliver there on a normal schedule.
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster in Theodore?
Our yard is on Saint Stephens Road in Mobile, roughly 22 minutes from Theodore, so most orders placed before noon on a weekday go out the same day. Anything booked a day ahead we can usually schedule to a morning or afternoon window that suits you. Call (251) 318-8799 and we will tell you honestly what is achievable today rather than promising a slot we cannot hold. See our same-day dumpster service for how it works.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Theodore?
If the container sits entirely on your own driveway or private property, you generally will not need a municipal permit — that covers the large majority of our Theodore deliveries. If the box has to sit on a public street or right-of-way instead, Theodore is unincorporated Mobile County, so that falls under Mobile County Engineering — Right-of-Way Permits directly. Ask whichever office applies about a right-of-way or street-obstruction permit, confirm the current fee and process with them directly, and allow lead time rather than expecting same-day approval. Our Mobile-area permit guide walks through the general process.
What can I put in a dumpster in Theodore?
General household junk, furniture, construction and demolition debris, roofing, flooring, drywall and clean wood are all fine. What is barred is a legal question rather than a company policy: paint, fuel and oil, chemicals and solvents, lead-acid batteries, tires, medical waste and appliances still holding refrigerant all have to stay out of an ordinary landfill load, and electronics are best handled through a certified recycler or a local collection event rather than the trash — ADEM has the current guidance. Asbestos never goes in a container. Our Alabama prohibited-items guide covers the full list.
Will the dumpster damage my driveway in Theodore?
Placed correctly, no. Every drop gets boards under the rails and rollers first, so the container's weight is spread out rather than resting on four small points. Plenty of Theodore driveways — especially older poured concrete or asphalt — already have a hairline crack or a slightly low corner before we ever show up, and we point that out and walk the placement with you first, so nobody is guessing later which mark was already there. More on the process in our placement and surface-protection guide.
Do you deliver to Theodore after a storm?
Absolutely. Theodore gets the same Gulf-storm exposure as the rest of the Mobile area — hurricane season runs June through November, and this stretch of coast has seen its share of major storms come ashore nearby. Storm cleanup is a normal part of our workload here, not a special case. We just need a reasonably clear, level pad and unobstructed truck access, so flag it for us if debris is blocking the approach. More in our storm cleanup dumpster guide.
