Frequently Asked Questions

There are a couple of key warning signs that you need a roof replacement: 1) shingles are curled, crackling, or buckling; 2) shingles are completely missing, particularly in roof valleys; 3) shingle granules in your gutters; 4) signs of leaking, such as dark spots or trails; 5) moss or algae growth.

It is essential to survey your roof both inside and out so you can inspect issues from all angles. Contact Us today and KTM Exteriors & Recycling can come to inspect your roof free of charge.

Each town has different regulations, permit requirements, and other restrictions regarding dumpsters on streets and other private property. KTM Exteriors will contact and apply for a street permit if it is allowed.

We like to use the "cover on a lid" analogy. Safely transporting these dumpsters requires a cover - like boxing up your leftovers for the fridge. We won't be able to put a lid on it if it's piled too high!

A full list will be detailed in your Dumpster Agreement, but items such as:
• Corrosive materials or liquids
• Liquids of any kind
• Propane tanks
• Medical waste
• Animal carcasses
• Extremely heavy material (i.e., rock, gravel)
If your disposal needs fall into this category, we can have an additional discussion around disposing of these kinds of materials in an efficient manner.

There are a variety of variables that go into the possibility of damage to your property in situations like these. We try our absolute best to ensure that no damage takes place and we takes pre-cautions to avoid issues such as setting up tarps and blocking under the dumpsters, but sometimes things happen.  Rest assured KTM will work with you to correct any issues.

Form of payment on file.
Signed Dumpster Agreement.
Given direction or a marked space on property for dumpster's location (**NOTE: if you are not going to be home day of, PLEASE LET US KNOW!)
Please Remember "Cover on a Lid": we have to cover the dumpster for transportation so please do not overfill

Yes. While a full list can be provided in your Dumpster Agreement, items like appliances, A/C units, computers, and tires are billed at an additional cost.

**IMPORTANT: If you are including any of the separately billed items outlined in the Dumpster Agreement in your dumpster, we ask that you put these at the TOP of the dumpster so we can quickly identify these items!**

Unless stated otherwise in your Dumpster Agreement, our initial rental periods are two (2) weeks. But you can keep the dumpster as long as you need to - after two weeks, we will bill you on a weekly basis.

A time window will be coordinated for when the dumpster will be picked up and dropped off by KTM Exteriors. If there is a specific time window you would like, please call us the day before and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

For Pick-Up: Please give KTM Exteriors a 48-hour notice for when you would like your dumpster picked up

Of course! If you need it moved to a different location on your property, we charge a small fee (it's heavy!) for relocation. If you need the dumpster relocated to another location, we will charge $150.
