Common Questions

Dump truck rental FAQ.

What is the difference between a crewed rental and a trailer-only pull?▼

A crewed rental includes a licensed CalStar CDL operator who drives, tares the truck, hauls to our facility, and returns your ticket - you never leave your site. A trailer-only pull means CalStar provides just the trailer; your tractor and driver handle the route. Trailer-only is popular with owner-operators and fleet contractors who have their own licensed drivers and want to cut per-load driver costs.

How far in advance do I need to book?▼

Same-day service is available for calls placed by 9 AM, subject to fleet availability. For projects starting the following day, call by end of day. For ongoing contract work or multi-truck projects, we recommend booking at least 48–72 hours out so we can reserve dedicated capacity. During peak season (spring and fall), earlier notice gives you more time-slot options.

Does the rental price include the tipping fee at your facility?▼

Yes — for crewed rentals dispatched to our Sun Valley transfer facility, the tip fee is included in your per-load rate. If you need material hauled to a third-party facility (city yard, landfill, etc.), tip fees at that facility are billed separately as a pass-through. We always disclose this upfront before dispatch.

Can I rent a truck for multiple days at a stretch?▼

Absolutely. Multi-day and weekly arrangements are common for demolition and grading projects. We put the truck on a dedicated assignment to your site, which means you get consistent service, the same driver learns your site quirks, and your per-load cost often drops under a weekly rate structure. Call to discuss your project timeline.

What if the truck can't access my site?▼

Our dispatch team will ask about site access during your booking - gate width, overhead clearance, surface type, and any permit restrictions. If a full-size truck can't reach your site, we'll recommend a 10-yard configuration or advise on staging options. We've been working Los Angeles job sites for 40+ years and know most of the access challenges in advance.
