On a private Salinas driveway you normally need no permit. If the container has to sit on a public street, the city will usually require a right of way permit, and your provider often files the paperwork. Ask on the call so it is not a surprise on delivery day.
Check the overhead first. The container pivots high off the truck bed, so a branch or carport roof that cleared a car will not clear a tipping roll off. Twenty three feet is the figure to work to.
Association covenants are frequently stricter than any city rule. In parts of Salinas they cap how long a container may be visible from the street, which is entirely separate from whether a permit is needed.
If the job will clearly run long, agree the extension before the end date. An unplanned overrun can mean a wasted collection trip, which is billable in a way an agreed extension is not.
If the drive is the only sensible position but the slab is thin, say so. Providers carry boards, and the cost of protection is nothing against the cost of a cracked Salinas driveway.

A Salinas quote should be a single number covering delivery, rental, pickup and disposal to a weight cap. If a price sounds unusually low, check what tonnage it includes before comparing it to anything else.

Salinas dumpster rental questions
How full can I load the container?
Level with the top rail, no higher. Anything above the rail cannot be legally tarped for transport, and the driver will refuse the load or charge to level it.
Who is responsible if the driveway is damaged?
Placing plywood under the wheels and the rear roller is the standard precaution and it is normally the customer side of the arrangement. Ask the provider what their terms say.
Is there a charge if the container is not ready for pickup?
If the load is overfilled, blocked by a vehicle or contains prohibited material, most providers charge a dry run fee for the wasted trip. Clear access on the collection day avoids it.
Do I need to sort the debris before loading?
Generally no, beyond keeping heavy inert material separate. Some cities operate construction and demolition diversion rules, and your provider will know whether one applies in Salinas.
Can I move the dumpster once it is delivered?
No. Moving a roll off container needs the truck. If the position is wrong, call the provider and they will reposition it, sometimes for a fee.
