Port Charlotte driveways and canal lots

Port Charlotte was laid out in the 1950s and 1960s as a grid of quarter-acre lots, many on a network of canals. Driveways are often short, and canal-front lots have seawalls, docks and septic or sewer lines close to the house. Tell the hauler about tight access, overhead lines, the seawall and where your septic tank or sewer cleanout sits, so the container goes where it will not cause damage.

Many homeowners lay boards under the container rails to protect a newer driveway or pavers. Avoid parking on grass after summer rains, when soft ground can trap a loaded truck.

Do I need a permit?

On your own driveway, usually not. If the container must sit in the street or right-of-way, check with Charlotte County, or the City of Punta Gorda inside city limits, before delivery. Deed-restricted communities such as Punta Gorda Isles, Burnt Store Lakes, Rotonda West and Deep Creek often have their own rules on how long a dumpster may stay. Ask your association first.

What goes in, what stays out

Household junk, furniture, flooring, drywall, cabinets, yard waste and most construction debris can go in. Keep out liquid paint, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides, batteries, fuel, propane tanks and other hazardous waste. Tires, mattresses and appliances may carry extra fees. Charlotte County runs household hazardous waste collection; ask your provider what is accepted.

Questions to ask before you book

1. What size do you recommend for my job?
2. How many tons are included, and what is the charge per extra ton?
3. How many days are included, and what does an extra day cost?
4. Are there extra fees for mattresses, tires, appliances or heavy debris?
5. When can you deliver, and how do I schedule pickup?

Get the answers in writing. The provider you reach at (941) 740-6242 will quote all of it before delivery.

Loading tips

• Load heavy, flat items first and spread weight evenly.
• Break down furniture and flatten boxes.
• Keep everything below the top rail.
• Do not let neighbors toss in their trash; it counts against your weight limit.
