If your Paterson property has a narrow approach or a shared alley, say so when you call. Providers can sometimes send a smaller truck, but they need to know in advance rather than finding out on arrival.
Tell the driver which way the barn doors should face. They can set the container either way round if you ask in advance, and walking debris in beats lifting it over a wall on every job.
Association covenants are frequently stricter than any city rule. In parts of Paterson they cap how long a container may be visible from the street, which is entirely separate from whether a permit is needed.
Breaking debris down before it goes in is worth real money on a Paterson rental, because you are buying volume. A dismantled wardrobe takes a third of the space of an intact one.
Think about the pickup as well as the drop. A vehicle parked across the container on collection day in Paterson usually means a dry run fee for the wasted trip.

Paterson dumpster rental questions
Can I rent a dumpster for just one day?
You can, but it rarely saves money. Most providers price a minimum rental period of about a week, so a one day rental usually costs close to the same.
How fast can a dumpster be delivered in Paterson?
Often same or next day if you call in the morning, though it depends on the provider and the season. Roofing season and month end are the busiest windows.
What is the cheapest way to rent a dumpster in Paterson?
Pick the size you actually need, keep the load under the weight allowance, put it on the driveway rather than the street, and book a few days ahead rather than same day.
What is the busiest time to book in Paterson?
Spring through autumn, with the end of the month tightest almost everywhere. Roofing weather drives most of the seasonal swing in Passaic County.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Paterson?
Not for a private driveway in almost all cases. A container placed on a public street normally needs a municipal right of way permit, and the provider usually files it for you.
