Dumpster Rental in Factoryville, PA

Roll-off containers for Factoryville homes and jobsites

Factoryville is a Wyoming County borough that punches above its size, thanks largely to Keystone College sitting on its edge and to Christy Mathewson, the Hall of Fame pitcher born here and still celebrated every August. The village took its name from an old woollen factory, and the center remains compact and walkable. What we haul out here reflects that mix: student rental turnovers and campus projects, older frame house renovations along College Avenue, barn and farm building clearances on the properties outside the borough, and roofing and siding work that piles up after a rough Endless Mountains winter.

What we know about working in Factoryville

Building stock in the borough itself is largely nineteenth and early twentieth century frame housing, some of it converted into apartments and student accommodation, which means periodic heavy turnover of furniture, mattresses and carpet at the end of academic terms. Outside the village the land opens into farm country running toward Nicholson and La Plume, and the projects change to outbuildings, machinery sheds and long driveways. The great Tunkhannock Viaduct at Nicholson is a short drive west and remains the landmark everyone mentions. Sitting on the Lackawanna Trail, the borough is easy for us to reach but noticeably colder and snowier than the valley floor, and back roads off US 6 and 11 can stay slick well into the morning.

Getting a truck to you

We take I-81 north to exit 194 and follow US 6 and 11 out past Clarks Summit, Glenburn and Dalton straight into the borough, about half an hour door to door. PA 107 handles the addresses on the eastern side. Once off the main highway, the practical issues are steep short driveways, gravel farm lanes that soften after rain, and turnaround space on the narrower township roads.

Routes we run: US 6 / US 11 (the Lackawanna Trail), PA 107, College Avenue, I-81 (exit 194) then US 6 / 11.

Permits, streets and placement in Factoryville

On a private driveway in Factoryville 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 Wyoming 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 Factoryville. County recycling and household hazardous waste dates are published by Lackawanna County.
