Serving Fort Drum from our Watertown yard

Fort Drum is twelve minutes north-east of us and it is the single biggest fact about working in Jefferson County. Home of the 10th Mountain Division, it drives the local economy, the housing market and — very directly — a large share of what we do.

What we know about working in Fort Drum

PCS season is our busiest stretch of the year. When families receive orders and rotate out, whole neighbourhoods on and around post turn over inside a few weeks, usually from late spring through summer. Movers take what is going; what is left is the furniture that will not survive another move, the garage that accumulated over three years, and the basement nobody opened.

That work has a hard deadline attached, which is why we ask PCS customers to book early and tell us the clearing date. A container that turns up two days after the housing inspection is worth nothing. If your date moves — and it does — call us and we will move with it rather than charging you for the change.

For anything on post itself, access runs through the installation's own procedures and the housing office, so tell us at booking whether the address is on or off post and we will sort the gate arrangement rather than working it out at the checkpoint.

Quick facts. Fort Drum sits in Jefferson County, covering ZIP codes 13602. Population is roughly around 12,000 on post. Typical drive time from our yard is 12 minutes north-east.

Landmarks and areas we work around

  • The 10th Mountain Division headquarters
  • Wheeler-Sack Army Airfield
  • The Fort Drum main gate off Route 11

Getting there — the routes our drivers use

  • Interstate 81
  • US 11
  • State Route 3
  • State Route 26
  • Route 342
  • Enduring Freedom Drive

Sizing for a Fort Drum job

The container that suits your job depends on the material far more than the address. Here is the full comparison.

Roll-off dumpster sizes available in Watertown, NY
SizeDimensions (L×W×H) Holds aboutWeight allowanceBest for
10 Yard12′ × 8′ × 3.5′3–4 pickup loads1–2 tonsBathroom remodels, small cleanouts, concrete
15 Yard16′ × 8′ × 4′5–6 pickup loads2–3 tonsGarage & porch clearouts, single-room renos
20 Yard22′ × 8′ × 4.5′7–8 pickup loads3–4 tonsRoof tear-offs, kitchen renos, big cleanouts
30 Yard22′ × 8′ × 6′10–12 pickup loads4–5 tonsNew builds, additions, whole-home cleanouts

Heavy material — concrete, brick, ceramic tile, plaster, wet vegetation — needs a smaller container than the volume suggests. Bulky light material like furniture, mattresses and drywall needs a bigger one. The sizing guide explains why.

How delivery works in Fort Drum

  1. 1

    Call and describe the job

    Tell us what you're clearing and where you are. Krista Boliver or a dispatcher will size it with you in about three minutes — no forms, no waiting on an email quote.

  2. 2

    Lock in a flat rate

    You get one number that covers delivery, the rental period, pickup, and disposal up to your weight allowance. We tell you the overage rate up front so nothing lands on your invoice later.

  3. 3

    We deliver and protect

    Our driver calls ahead, lays boards under the rails on driveways and pavers, and sets the can exactly where you want it — doors facing the work.

  4. 4

    Fill it, we haul it

    Load to the fill line, call when you're done, and we pull it. Most loads run through the Jefferson County transfer station on Route 12, which moves the county’s waste on to the Development Authority of the North Country landfill in Rodman.

Answers

Dumpster rental in Fort Drum — your questions

Can you deliver to an address on post?
Tell us at booking whether the address is on or off post. On-post deliveries run through the installation's own access procedures, and that needs arranging in advance rather than sorted out at the gate.
We are PCSing. How far ahead should I book?
As early as you have a date. PCS season is our busiest window and containers get tight from May through August. If your date shifts afterwards, call us — we will move the booking rather than charge you for it.
What size for a PCS clear-out?
A 15 yard handles most quarters. Add a garage or a basement with three years of accumulation and a 20 is the safer call — cheaper than a second haul when the inspection is already booked.
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster to Fort Drum?
Fort Drum is 12 minutes north-east from our yard on State Route 3. Same-day delivery is frequently available if you call before mid-morning, and next-day is close to guaranteed. We call ahead before the driver arrives.
What sizes do you bring to Fort Drum?
All four — 10, 15, 20 and 30 yard. Which one suits depends far more on what you are throwing away than on where you live. Describe the material on the phone and we will size it properly.
