When Johnson City residents and businesses need a dependable dumpster rental partner, they choose JK Dumpster Rental — a driveway cleanout near Buffalo Mountain, a jobsite roll-off out toward Jonesborough, a weekend renovation clear-out along the Tweetsie Trail corridor. From your first call to the flat-rate quote to the delivery on your driveway, we take the hassle out of waste removal — no hidden fees, no guesswork, no chasing a call center for an answer. Most orders called in early go out the same day.

Why Johnson City calls JK Dumpster Rental
JK Dumpster Rental was built on a simple idea: make dumpster rental straightforward and honest for homeowners, contractors and businesses across Washington County. When you dial (423) 740-6063 you reach a real local team working out of our own 2303 S Greenwood Dr yard — not a national booking site forwarding your call to whoever picks up first. Every job runs on our own truck, our own driver and our own yard, from a driveway cleanout south of downtown to a jobsite out toward Elizabethton.
That local footprint is most of the job. Knowing which Johnson City streets a loaded roll-off can actually turn onto, and that this valley sits at roughly 1,600 feet of elevation with Buffalo Mountain rising more than 2,700 feet just south of downtown — so a hillside driveway or a tight street near the Tweetsie Trail corridor gets planned for, not discovered on arrival. Knowing that Washington County and the state of Tennessee both regulate solid waste with real statutes, not just guidance. Knowing the difference between a clean yard-waste load and one tangled up with construction debris, and which materials Tennessee law keeps out of any container, period. Our goal is simple: make waste removal easier and more responsible for everyone across Johnson City and Washington County, from a garage cleanout to a full renovation clear-out.

Learn moreWhy choose us
You reach a real Johnson City team, not a national dispatch queue. The person who answers knows which Washington County streets a loaded roll-off can actually turn onto and which local rules apply that day.
Delivery, the rental period, pickup and disposal rolled into one flat-rate price based on the size you book, the debris type and how long you keep it. If something would push you over, we tell you before the truck ever leaves the yard.
Call early and most Johnson City and Washington County orders go out the same or next day. Live jobsite swap-outs get priority over everything else on the schedule.
Founder & CEO Jason Keller and the JK Dumpster Rental team coordinate every delivery out of our 2303 S Greenwood Dr yard — not a national dispatch desk. We know which Washington County roads a loaded roll-off can actually reach.
Weight fills a container long before volume does. We will talk you into the smaller can if that is the honest answer for your job.
Metals, masonry, unpainted wood, drywall, carpet and clean concrete all get routed for recovery instead of buried wherever's easiest — we will tell you what has to come out of the box before it ever reaches the scale.

Know before you load
Tennessee has real, statutory landfill bans, not just guidance. Whole waste tires, lead-acid batteries and used oil are all barred from ordinary landfill disposal outright under Tenn. Code Ann. Sec. 68-211-866(a), and none of those go in a JK Dumpster Rental roll-off, ever. Appliances that hold refrigerant — refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners — fall under federal Clean Air Act rules requiring proper refrigerant recovery before disposal, so we route those separately rather than into the container. Add hazardous liquids, chemicals, fuels and paint to the never-in-the-box list. Ask us when you call and we'll point you toward the right disposal option instead.
Clean debris gets sorted for recovery, not buried whole. Metals, masonry, unpainted wood, drywall, carpet and clean concrete are all things we would rather see routed for recovery than dumped straight into a landfill cell. Johnson City's own Iris Glen Environmental Center handles solid waste for the area under TDEC's oversight — the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, which regulates solid waste statewide through Tennessee Code Title 68, Chapter 211 — real, local infrastructure we route loads through rather than a distant regional dump.
Placement on a public street is its own question. A dumpster that stays entirely on your own driveway or lot generally doesn't need a placement permit worked out in advance. Set one out in the street or right-of-way and it's worth a quick call to your local building or public works office first. And if any part of the job involves digging — a footing, a fence post, a new driveway apron — call Tennessee 811 at least three business days ahead. It's the state's official call-before-you-dig center covering every community across Washington County and the Tri-Cities region. Ask us when you call and we'll tell you what we know.
How it works
No forms, no portal logins, no waiting on a quote email. Five steps, and the first is a conversation with somebody who's actually loaded a container.

Tell us the address, roughly what's going in, where you want it and when. That's the entire process on your side. We handle sizing, scheduling, protection, hauling and disposal — for one flat-rate price based on the size you need, the materials and how long you keep it.
If you're not sure what size you need, don't guess — describe the pile. Sizing containers is what we do all day, and we'd rather talk you into the cheaper box than sell you space you'll never fill. Placing it on the street instead of your driveway? Ask us, and we'll tell you what to confirm before we deliver.
Call (423) 740-6063One short conversation. We ask what you are clearing, where the box needs to sit and when you need it. No forms, no waiting on an email.
You get one flat-rate number covering delivery, the rental period, pickup and disposal — depending on the size you need, the debris type and how long you keep it. If a smaller box does the job we will say so.
The driver walks the spot with you, lays protection under the rails and sets the container square in the driveway, curb lane or job site.
Keep it level with the top rail and keep the banned items out. Need a swap mid-job or an early pickup? One call and we are on it.
Clean concrete, metal and yard waste get routed for recovery rather than buried wherever we can. You get your driveway or curb back the way you left it.

The thing nobody tells you
Most people ordering their first dumpster assume the biggest container is the least risky option. With light, bulky material — furniture, boxes, insulation, cabinetry — that's true. With anything dense it's the opposite.
A 30 or 40-yard box loaded with roofing shingles off a tear-off, or with plaster and lath torn out of an older Johnson City home near downtown, will blow past its weight allowance while it still looks half empty, and the overage gets charged separately. A 10 or 20-yard with a matched bag capacity — see our size chart above for the real bag-count numbers on each size — often does exactly the same job for less.
Ask us and you'll get the honest answer, even when the honest answer is the smaller box.

Johnson City & Washington County specifics
Johnson City traces its roots to the mid-1850s, when merchant, postmaster and rail-depot founder Henry Johnson set up a store and stop along the planned East Tennessee & Virginia Railroad line — not President Andrew Johnson, whose home sits in nearby Greeneville, a different county altogether. The settlement went by informal names like "Johnson's Tank" and "Johnson's Depot" in its earliest years before Tennessee granted it an official state charter as Johnson City on December 1, 1869, with Henry Johnson serving as its first mayor. A 2020 Census count put the city's population at 71,046, with more recent Census Bureau estimates trending higher — a far smaller number than the roughly 500,000 people across the wider Tri-Cities region the city anchors.
Johnson City sits primarily in northeastern Washington County, with small portions reaching into neighboring Carter and Sullivan counties, in a valley of the southern Appalachians at roughly 1,600 feet of elevation — Buffalo Mountain rises past 2,700 feet immediately south of downtown, and the Tweetsie Trail rail-trail, built along the old East Tennessee & Western North Carolina Railroad corridor, links the city out to Elizabethton. East Tennessee State University, founded in 1911, and the long-established Science Hill High School both anchor the local community, alongside the Tipton-Haynes State Historic Site south of town. Spring — especially April — brings this region's real severe-thunderstorm and isolated tornado risk per National Weather Service climatology, with a smaller secondary risk window in November, while winter can bring occasional ice and snow, more of it at the higher elevations ringing the valley than down in Johnson City itself. In late September 2024, the remnants of Hurricane Helene brought serious flooding to parts of East Tennessee, with the most severe, widely reported damage concentrated in neighboring Unicoi County (Erwin) and Carter County (the Hampton/Elizabethton area) rather than inside Johnson City's own city limits — real regional context that shapes how seriously we take storm-debris cleanup calls across the wider area we serve. The city's Horizon 2045 growth management plan, adopted around September 2025, points to steady construction activity ahead — treat any specific project details as current-as-of-reporting rather than settled fact.
Out from our 2303 S Greenwood Dr yard, we regularly run to Jonesborough — chartered in 1779 and marketed as "Tennessee's Oldest Town" — as well as Elizabethton, which borders Johnson City directly and traces its own 1905 incorporation; Kingsport, chartered in 1917 as a planned "garden city"; Bristol, incorporated in 1856 roughly 21.5 miles northeast; and Unicoi, incorporated in 1994. Wherever the job sits across Washington County and the Tri-Cities region, the container shows up sized right and the driveway comes back clean.
Service area
We run dumpsters out of our 2303 S Greenwood Dr yard across every corner of Johnson City and out into Washington County and the Tri-Cities region. If your community is not on this list, call us anyway. We probably still get there.
Illustrative examples

Called on a Monday morning and had a 20 yard sitting in the driveway by early afternoon. Boards down, spot leveled, and the driveway looked exactly the same when they picked it up a week later.
We build all over Kingsport and this is the only hauler that has never left us sitting on a full box. When they say Tuesday, it is Tuesday.
Cleared out my mother's house over a few weeks and they were patient the whole way through. One call and a 20 yard showed up the next morning — took the stress out of an already stressful job.
Reroofed our place after storm damage and they worked around a tight driveway without any hassle — showed up when they said they would and left the yard exactly as they found it.

FAQs
The questions we field most often from Johnson City homeowners and contractors. More on the full FAQ page.
Most kitchen and bathroom remodels fit well in a 15-yard or 20-yard dumpster — enough room for cabinetry, fixtures and flooring debris without paying for space you will not use. Larger renovation projects and whole-home tear-outs usually call for a 30-yard. Describe the rooms you are clearing when you call and we will point you at the size that actually fits — even when that means talking you into the smaller box.
Pricing depends on the dumpster size, the materials you're loading and the rental duration — we keep affordable dumpster rental front and center with flat-rate options that cover delivery, the rental period, pickup and disposal, with no surprise fees added afterward. Call with a short description of what you are clearing and you will get a straight answer on where your job falls.
Tennessee bans whole waste tires, lead-acid batteries and used oil from ordinary landfill disposal outright (Tenn. Code Ann. Sec. 68-211-866(a)), so none of those go in a roll-off, ever. Appliances containing refrigerant — refrigerators, freezers, window AC units — have to have that refrigerant properly recovered under federal Clean Air Act rules before disposal, so we handle those separately rather than tossing them in the box. Hazardous liquids, chemicals, fuels and paint are never allowed either. Ask before you load something you're unsure about and we'll point you to the right disposal option instead.
Yes — we provide dumpster rental services throughout Johnson City and surrounding communities across Washington County and the Tri-Cities region, including Jonesborough, Elizabethton, Kingsport, Bristol and Unicoi. If your address is not on that list, call anyway — we can often still get there.
Same-day dumpster rental service is available and perfect for urgent projects — most orders called in early from our 2303 S Greenwood Dr yard go out the same day, with later calls typically landing first thing the next morning. We run Mon–Sat 7:00am – 7:00pm.
If any part of your project involves digging — a fence post, a footing, a mailbox, a new driveway apron — Tennessee law requires a call to Tennessee 811 at least three full business days ahead, so every buried utility line in the area gets marked before a shovel goes in the ground. Placing the dumpster itself on your own driveway or lot generally doesn't need a permit; setting one in the street or public right-of-way is worth a quick call to your local building or public works office first.
