Roll-off containers for Jessup homes and jobsites
Jessup earns its reputation once a year, when the Race of the Saints comes barrelling down Church Street on St. Ubaldo Day and the borough's Italian roots are on full display. The rest of the year it is a hardworking hillside town on the eastern side of the valley with a strong sense of ownership over its streets. Our containers here handle everything from cellar and attic clearances in the old miners' doubles to complete kitchen gut jobs, roof tear-offs, and construction and packaging debris from the businesses in the industrial park above town. Placement takes thought because of the grade.
What we know about working in Jessup
Originally proposed as the borough of Winton, Jessup grew fast in the 1890s as new collieries opened and families came over from Italy, Poland and Slovakia. That heritage still shows in the parishes, the clubs and the sheer number of houses built close to the street with no front setback. Interiors run to lath and plaster, narrow staircases and small landings, which slows any demolition and means debris comes down in manageable pieces. The land rises steeply from the Lackawanna toward the Moosic Mountains, so a driveway on Hill Street behaves very differently from one down near Riverside. Above the residential streets, the business park brings commercial and light industrial work. Valley View schools tie the borough to Archbald and Blakely.

Getting a truck to you
The fastest approach is the Casey Highway out of Scranton to the PA 247 interchange, which drops us right at the edge of the borough and avoids the valley traffic entirely. From there we work down into the residential streets. Grade is the main issue: several streets climb hard, driveways are short and pitched, and on the older blocks there is no front setback at all, so curbside placement is often the only sensible option.
Routes we run: PA 247, US 6 (Casey Highway) at the PA 247 interchange, Church Street, Hill Street.

Permits, streets and placement in Jessup
On a private driveway in Jessup you generally do not need a municipal permit. Placement in the public street or right-of-way is a different matter and normally requires approval — from the borough or township where the road is locally maintained, or from PennDOT where it is a state route. Every municipality in Lackawanna County runs its own form and its own lead time, and older streets here often have no off-street parking at all, so plan the permit before you plan the delivery. It is a ten-minute call that saves a week.
Our permit and placement guide walks through the whole process, and PA DEP publishes the Covered Device Recycling Act rules and the other statewide disposal restrictions that apply to every load we haul out of Jessup. County recycling and household hazardous waste dates are published by Lackawanna County.

Dumpster Rental in Jessup — FAQs
Can you deliver during St. Ubaldo Day weekend?
Not along the race route itself, and honestly you would not want us to. Church Street and the surrounding blocks fill with people and the borough closes streets for the day. We schedule deliveries and pickups in that part of town for before or after the weekend, and we are happy to extend a rental at no drama so a container is not stranded in the middle of it.
Do you serve the business park above the borough?
Yes, and commercial placements there are easy compared with the residential streets. Wide approaches, room to turn and dedicated service areas mean we can set larger containers and schedule regular swaps for ongoing projects. We just ask for a site contact and any gate or dock instructions so the driver is not held up at the entrance.
My driveway on the hill is short and steep. Will that work?
It usually does with a smaller container. A 10 or 15 yard needs less flat run to roll off cleanly and sits more stably on a pitch, and the driver will chock it front and back. If the slope is severe or the apron drops off sharply into the street, we will suggest a curbside spot on the level section nearby instead.
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster to Jessup?
Jessup is about 8 miles northeast of Scranton, so it is a routine run for us. Same-day delivery is usually possible if you call before about 11am, and next morning otherwise. Storm weeks and the spring remodeling peak can stretch that, and we will tell you honestly when you call.
Do you charge extra to deliver to Jessup?
No. Jessup sits inside our standard service area and the flat rate is the same as it is in Scranton. Delivery, pickup, your rental window and disposal up to the agreed tonnage are all included in the number we quote you.
What size dumpster do most Jessup customers take?
A 20 yard is the most common by a wide margin — it suits kitchen guts, multi-room renovations and three-bedroom house cleanouts. But if you are stripping plaster and lath out of a pre-war house, or moving coal-era brick, stone or concrete, size DOWN to a 10 yard heavy container and take two hauls — that material hits the weight limit long before it fills the box.
