On a private Buffalo 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.
Mark the spot before the truck arrives. A cone or a chalk outline removes all ambiguity, and it matters more than people think when nobody is home for the delivery.
Keep the load level with the top rail. Anything heaped above it cannot be legally tarped for transport, so the driver either levels it at your cost or leaves without it.
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.
Cardboard, packaging and insulation fill a container fast without adding weight. On a Buffalo fit out, the volume runs out long before the tonnage does.

Buffalo dumpster rental questions
Is there a discount for a longer rental in Buffalo?
For projects running beyond two or three weeks, ask for monthly pricing rather than extending a weekly rental day by day. It is usually cheaper.
How fast can a dumpster be delivered in Buffalo?
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.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Buffalo?
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.
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.
Can I put yard waste and construction debris in the same container in Buffalo?
You can, but a clean green load often qualifies for a lower composting rate. Mixing them sends the whole container to landfill at the standard rate.
