We've compiled some of the most common questions about our services to help you understand what Two Gen Vets offers. Two Gen Vets is rated 5.0 stars on Google across 60 reviews.

  • What dumpster sizes do you offer?

    Two Gen Vets rents 12-yard, 20-yard, and 30-yard dumpsters. There is no 10-yard. The 12 is the small residential size, the 20 covers most home cleanouts and remodels, and the 30 is for bigger jobs. Call (865) 737-5043 and we will match the size to what you are clearing.

  • What fits in each size?

    As a rough guide, a 12-yard holds about 3–4 pickup-truck loads and includes 1 ton, a 20-yard holds about 6–8 loads and includes 2 tons, and a 30-yard holds about 9–12 loads and includes 3 tons. Tell us what you are throwing away and we will size it. Call (865) 737-5043.

  • Will the dumpster damage my driveway?

    Two Gen Vets places sturdy wooden boards under the dumpster to distribute weight and help prevent scratching, cracking, or indentation. Drivers place the container carefully, without scraping or dragging, and the team sweeps nails, debris, and leftover mess after pickup. Please flag soft asphalt, septic lines, or tight access when booking so we can discuss placement. Call (865) 737-5043.

  • How long can I keep the dumpster?

    Residential rentals include 10 days. If you need it longer, or the job is commercial, call (865) 737-5043 and we will work out the dates.

  • What can’t go in the dumpster?

    Hazardous materials stay out: paint, chemicals, oils, solvents, fuel, pesticides, and asbestos. Tires and batteries can go in, but tell us before we drop the dumpster so we can take them where they need to go. If you are not sure about an item, call (865) 737-5043 before you load it.

  • Can I get a dumpster today?

    There is no cutoff time. Same-day depends on the schedule when you call. We do our best for same-day and we deliver within 24 business hours for sure. Call (865) 737-5043 as soon as you know you need one.

  • What areas do you serve?

    Two Gen Vets serves Knox, Blount, and Sevier counties, including Knoxville, Maryville, Alcoa, Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Seymour, and Kodak. Call (865) 737-5043 with the job address and what you are clearing so we can help plan your dumpster rental.

  • Do I need a permit?

    Typically no permit is needed when the dumpster is on your property. Placement on public property requires checking local regulations. Before placing a dumpster in a street or other public area, check with your city or HOA. Call Two Gen Vets at (865) 737-5043 before delivery to discuss placement.

  • How much does it cost?
