How to inspect a damaged dumpster

A five-minute walkthrough of the checks our crews run on every roll-off before quoting a repair.

  1. 1Walk the outside — Look for dents, cracked welds and bowed side panels on all four sides.
  2. 2Check the floor — Tap suspect areas — soft spots and pinholes mean floor steel needs replacing.
  3. 3Test the door — Open and close it fully, watching hinges, latch bars and the seal.
  4. 4Inspect rails and skids — Worn skid rails and bent top rails are the most common structural repairs.
  5. 5Photograph everything — One wide shot per side plus a close-up of each damaged area.
