We had a great experience with Red River Removal! We rented a roll-off dumpster for a major spring cleanout of our house and garage, and Chris was incredibly helpful in recommending the right size for our project. The pricing on their website was clear and straightforward with no hidden fees, which I really appreciated. After submitting my online request, I received a call quickly to schedule delivery. They were flexible and worked around our family's schedule, making the whole process easy. When the dumpster was delivered, they placed it exactly where I had requested and even made sure I was happy with the location before leaving, offering to move it if needed. Excellent customer service from start to finish. I highly recommend Red River Removal for anyone needing a dumpster rental or junk removal. We'll definitely use them again!

Great customer service! I had a great experience from the moment I booked a dumpster rental to drop off to pick up. The drop off and pick up were very convenient. Having online payment was a great option for me as well. They have a variety of sizes available, and I just needed the 10 yard dumpster which other places do not have. I will 100% be using them again if I need them and recommending them to friends and neighbors.
