How the process works

1

Schedule it

Call (505) 581-6028 or tap any button on this page. Tell us what you're working on and when you need it — we lock in the size and placement while you're still on the line.

2

We drop it off

We place the container exactly where you want it, boards underneath, door facing the direction you specified. You don't have to be there.

3

We pick it up

Call or text once you're finished. We come get it and haul everything away, typically the next business day.

Why Albuquerque keeps coming back to us

Correct size on the first try

Describe the project and we'll recommend the right container, including when a smaller one will handle it.

Seven days included

Every rental comes with a full week on your property, and pickup is a single text away.

We guard your driveway

Every driver places boards beneath the rails before the container makes contact with your surface.

Family-run, not a middleman

You speak with the people who own the equipment — not a call center in another state.

Licensed and insured

Fully covered for residential and commercial projects in NM. Certificate available on request.

Same-day when you call early

Place your order before 1pm and we can usually have a container on your driveway that same afternoon.

Family-run, not a middleman

Walker Ensor has been moving debris across Albuquerque for 19 years — first behind someone else's wheel, now behind their own. When you dial (505) 581-6028, you reach the family that owns the containers, drives the routes and picks up the phone on a Saturday morning.

A lot of dumpster websites are middlemen who hand your job off to whoever bids. We are the crew that actually arrives.

Frequently asked questions

Is same-day dumpster delivery available?
In most cases, yes — book before 1pm on a weekday and we'll fit you into that afternoon's route. After 1pm you'll be on the first run the following morning.
Which size do most homeowners go with?
The 20 yard. It handles a kitchen renovation or a full-home cleanout, and it's our most-requested size in Albuquerque. If your project calls for less, we'll let you know and bring a 10 or 15 instead.
What materials are allowed in the dumpster?
Household junk, furniture, renovation debris, roofing, decking, flooring and drywall. No paint, fuel, tires, batteries or freon-containing appliances. Yard waste, soil and concrete go in a separate heavy-debris container.
Does Albuquerque require a permit for a dumpster?
Not when it sits on a private driveway. If the container needs to go on a public street, Albuquerque requires a right-of-way permit — we'll point you to the right office.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
Seven days come standard with every size. Need more time? Call or text before your scheduled pickup and we'll extend it.
