Sherman is the town Fairfield County forgets it has. One traffic light's worth of village center, the quiet north end of Candlewood Lake, and Route 39 running the ridge between them. Half the housing stock started life as seasonal cottages, and the steady project up here is the conversion — somebody buys a 1950s lake place and guts it down to the studs for year-round living. That gut needs a roll-off, and that's where we come in.

We dispatch Sherman from our Stamford depot, up Route 7 through New Milford territory and over — call it an hour-plus each way. That puts Sherman at the edge of our range, so we don't pretend otherwise: next-day delivery is the standard here, not same-day. You get a confirmed window instead of a maybe.

What a dumpster costs in Sherman

Up-front pricing, four sizes: $447 for the 10-yard, $547 for the 15, $647 for the 20, and $899 for the 30/40 tier — which arrives as two 20-yard cans, either side by side or one swapped for the other as you fill it. Every price includes delivery, pickup, disposal, and a 7-day rental. Weight allowances run 1,000 / 2,000 / 4,000 / 6,000 lbs by size, with overage billed at $0.10/lb. No fuel surcharge for the longer run north — the drive is our problem, not a line item on your invoice.

Lake lots, steep driveways, tight turns

Every can in our fleet is the same physical box: 22 feet long, 8 feet wide, 5-foot walls — about the length of a full-size pickup truck. On Candlewood shoreline lots that length matters, because plenty of lake driveways are short, pitched, or hooked. We put planks under the wheels for any placement off pavement, and we'd rather look at a photo of your approach before delivery day than improvise with a loaded truck on a slope. Send one to (203) 219-8855.

Getting rid of the small stuff without a can

If your project is a carload, not a canload, Sherman residents have town disposal options — check with the town office or public works for what the transfer station takes and what it costs, since we'd rather point you at the right desk than guess at the details. A roll-off earns its price when you're past a couple of pickup loads: one delivery, one pickup, done.

The two areas we serve in Sherman

  • Sherman Center — the village crossroads and the surrounding hill roads
  • Candlewood Lake shoreline — cottage conversions, dock-season cleanouts, steep access

If you're on a back road that isn't near either, call anyway — Sherman is small enough that we cover all of it on the same cadence.

    Spectacular service, even during Covid! First, a human answered their phone immediately and was clear and courteous. How rare these days! I got an appointment for next day! As promised, received a call that crew was on its way. My mother gave me last minute permission to move a fridge, not part of original request. So I had to tell the poor guys upon arrival that there was a surprise fridge move, two in fact, one removed, one moved within house. Crew didn't flinch. Then one fridge move required its doors AND house door to come off, which they achieved with impressive skill. I'm a manager in my work life and can say their professionalism was superb. Also, important for environment, the company claims to recycle materials. A+ on every level.

    Amazing experience! I would definitely hire them again! Every interaction with this company, from setting up the appointment with Justin, and then having to move it up, because my long distance home movers moved up their delivery day at the last minute, and to the appointment itself, has been a wonderful, and positive experience. When we had to change my delivery window at the last minute, Justin was incredibly helpful and accommodating. And the amazing movers, Eric and Mike, "Big Mike", were so wonderful, professional, helpful, kind, and did excellent work.

    It's spring cleaning time! Who am I going to call? the same great company I called 3 times before...grizzly junk pros! I have found these guys to be experts in moving large bulky items. They are hard workers, honest, fair and extremely efficient. I won't take a chance on any other company because I know what to expect from this one. They've done my cellar, things inside the house and now will call them for cleaning out the attic. The areas I've called them for aren't easy to maneuver in...amazing how they adapt to the job at hand.

Sherman dumpster rental FAQs

How fast can you get a dumpster to Sherman?
Next-day is the honest answer. Sherman sits at the far northern tip of Fairfield County — roughly an hour and change from our Stamford depot up Route 7 and over on Route 37 — so we schedule a confirmed next-day window rather than promise a same-day maybe.
Can you place a dumpster on a sloped lake driveway?
Usually, yes. A lot of Candlewood shoreline driveways drop toward the water, and a roll-off needs a reasonably level pad so the box doesn't creep. Text a photo of the driveway from the street to (203) 219-8855 and we'll tell you straight whether it works or where we'd stage instead.
What size do Sherman cottage renovations usually take?
A 15-yard at $547 covers most kitchen or bath work in a lake cottage. Full gut of a seasonal place converting to year-round — the classic Sherman project — is 20-yard territory at $647.
What's banned from the can?
No concrete, dirt, brick, or stumps in a standard load — that material overloads the truck. No paint, solvents, propane tanks, or other hazardous waste either. Household junk, renovation debris, furniture, and general cleanout material are all fine.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Sherman?
On your own driveway, no permit is needed in most Connecticut towns. If the can has to sit in the road — rare in Sherman, where nearly everything is private driveway — check with the town office first. We can't speak for any specific town's rule without confirming it.
