Know which James Island you live in. Property here can sit in the Town of James Island, the City of Charleston, or unincorporated Charleston County.⁠¹ The City counts James Island among the areas with unincorporated pockets, which it calls donut holes, that touch City limits but are still under Charleston County jurisdiction.⁠² Whoever has your parcel decides who you call about the street.

Street or driveway

Driveway first. A dumpster on your driveway usually needs no permit. The driveway guide covers the setup.

In the street, it depends on whose street it is.

• Town of James Island. The Town requires an encroachment permit from its Public Works Director before any temporary or permanent placement of a structure or object in a Town road right-of-way or drainage easement.⁠³ Applications go to Public Works at 1122 Dills Bluff Road, 843-795-4141, and near a roadway the Town can require a traffic control plan.⁠⁴ The form lists drainage, driveway, utility, fence, shed, and Other. It does not name dumpsters, so call Public Works to confirm.⁠⁵ Fees follow the Town’s User Fee schedules, and the Director approves or denies within 30 days of receipt.⁠⁶ Start early. See James Island dumpster permits.
• City of Charleston. A dumpster on a City right-of-way needs a dumpster permit first, and the Department of Traffic and Transportation issues it.⁠⁷ City code bars a dumpster from the right-of-way if it can sit on private property. In the street it must not block traffic, and it needs retro-reflective marking and barricades with flashing lights at each end.⁠⁸ T&T Permits: 843-724-7378.⁠⁹ See City of Charleston dumpster permits.
• Unincorporated Charleston County. Parts of James Island are in neither the Town nor the City.⁠¹⁰ A Charleston County Public Works encroachment permit for the public right-of-way carries a $35.00 application fee.⁠¹¹ Call (843) 202-7600 and ask whether your dumpster needs one.⁠¹² See Charleston County dumpster permits.

When a street permit is needed, you get it. Have it in hand before the dumpster goes down.

What JIPSD will not pick up

The James Island Public Service District collects trash for more than 7,000 properties on the island. Solid Waste: 843-762-5260.⁠¹³ If JIPSD is your hauler, its no-collect list is the reason to rent.

JIPSD lists roofing materials, bricks, concrete, and dirt among the items it cannot collect. Same for contractor-generated material, including construction debris and floor coverings.⁠¹⁴ Bulky pickup is capped at 2 bulk items, or 1 claw scoop of homeowner-generated material about the size of a 96-gallon roll cart, per week.⁠¹⁵

One scoop a week is about one roll cart. A garage cleanout is many times that. A roof gets no JIPSD pickup at all.
