Alexander is unincorporated, so no city permit is needed on private property. It is also home to the Buncombe County Landfill, so your debris does not travel far. Every rental comes from Dumpster Rental Asheville with one all-in price.
Alexander is quiet and rural, with homes on river bottoms and hillside lots off the roads that follow the French Broad. Most people pass through it on the way to the landfill on Panther Branch Road.

Where in Alexander do we deliver?
We cover the 28701 area, including homes along the French Broad River corridor, the hillside roads that climb away from it, and the area around Panther Branch Road. If you live near the line with Woodfin or Weaverville, we serve you too. Check our service areas page for the full list.
Why does being near the landfill matter?
All construction and demolition debris we haul in Buncombe County goes to the county landfill on Panther Branch Road, where every load is weighed on the scale. Being close to it means quick turnarounds for swap-outs and pickups. That helps contractors who need a full box pulled and an empty one dropped on the same trip.
Our pricing is flat across the area, so living next door to the landfill does not change your quote. What it does mean is fewer scheduling delays.
Some people ask why they should rent a dumpster when the landfill is right down the road. Hauling it yourself means loading a pickup, waiting in line at the scale, unloading by hand and doing it all again. A roll-off lets you fill at your own pace for 7 days and make a single call when you are done. For anything bigger than a couple of truck loads, it usually saves a weekend.

Can you recycle concrete here?
Yes, if the load is clean. Clean concrete, brick and block can be recycled at the landfill. If those materials are mixed with wood, trash or dirt, the whole load gets billed as trash by weight. Keep heavy loads separate if you are breaking out a patio, steps or a foundation.
Concrete is very heavy, so a smaller box is usually best. A 10-yard dumpster holds about 2 tons and suits most small slab or step removals.
What jobs are common in Alexander?
- Cleaning out sheds, garages and storage buildings on larger lots.
- Tearing out old porches, decks and outbuildings.
- Roof replacements, where shingles weigh about 250 to 400 lb per square.
- Remodels in older homes. A Buncombe County Air Quality permit is required first, and suspect materials should be tested for asbestos.
- Cleanup on river lots after high water.
Before you load, know what the landfill will turn away. Liquid paint, solvents, fuel, propane tanks, batteries, tires and electronics all stay out. Fridges and freezers with refrigerant do too. Mattresses carry a per-item fee, and yard waste or dirt needs approval first.

What about river and hillside lots?
Low lots near the French Broad can stay soft after rain, and hillside drives can be steep or narrow. Our truck needs about 60 feet of straight approach and roughly 23 feet of overhead clearance. We set boxes on firm driveways, not lawns, since the red clay here gets soft fast. A quick photo of your drive helps us plan the drop.
