Landscaping in Portland requires more than dropping plants in the ground. Coastal salt exposure, acidic soils, heavy spring rains, and harsh winter freezes all factor into which materials and species will thrive on your property. We select plants proven to perform in this region, amend soils to support healthy root growth, and design drainage into every landscape plan so your investment stays looking sharp for years to come.

Stone patios, walkways, retaining walls, and fire pit areas built with materials rated for Maine's freeze-thaw cycles and designed to complement your property.
Full lawn establishment from soil preparation and grading through seeding or sod installation, with soil amendments tailored to southern Maine's acidic conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dumpster Rental can be complex, and we’re here to provide answers to common questions. Here are some frequently asked questions from our clients.
The cost of renting a dumpster in Portland depends on the container size, rental duration, and type of debris you need to dispose of. A 10-yard container works well for small cleanouts, while a 30-yard unit handles larger renovation or demolition jobs. We provide transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and our team can walk you through the best option for your specific project so you only pay for what you actually need.
Most residential dumpster rentals in Portland do not require a permit if the container is placed on your own driveway or private property. However, if you need to place a dumpster on a public street or sidewalk, you will need a right-of-way permit from the City of Portland. Our team handles these situations regularly and can guide you through the process to keep your project moving without delays.
We offer same-day and next-day dumpster delivery throughout the greater Portland area. Once you contact us with your project details and preferred container size, we schedule a drop-off window that works with your timeline. Our drivers place the dumpster exactly where you need it, and we lay down boards to protect your driveway surface during the rental period.
Excavation timelines in Portland vary based on the scope of work, soil conditions, and weather. A small residential dig might take one to two days, while a larger foundation excavation or site preparation project could take a week or more. Rocky ledge and clay soils common in southern Maine can add time, so we always assess conditions on-site before giving you a firm schedule.
We provide a full range of property services including dumpster rental, excavation, demolition, land clearing, grading, landscaping, junk removal, stump removal, site preparation, and drainage solutions. This means you can work with one company from the initial clearing all the way through final grading and cleanup, which saves time, reduces costs, and keeps your project running smoothly.
We serve Portland and surrounding communities throughout southern Maine, including South Portland, Westbrook, Scarborough, Gorham, Falmouth, and Cape Elizabeth. Whether you need a roll-off dumpster delivered to a job site in the Old Port or excavation work done on a new lot in Windham, our crew and equipment are ready to handle it.
We offer landscape design and installation, including plantings, garden beds, walkways, patios, retaining walls, and lawn establishment. Our approach accounts for Portland's Zone 5b growing conditions, salt exposure near the coast, and the specific soil amendments needed for healthy plant growth in southern Maine's acidic soils.
Spring and early fall are the best times for most landscaping projects in Portland. Planting in May or June gives new plants the full growing season to establish roots before winter. Fall plantings in September and October take advantage of cooler temperatures and consistent rainfall. We can plan your project around these windows for the best results.
Our process begins with an on-site consultation to understand your vision, evaluate the existing conditions, and discuss budget. From there, we develop a plan that accounts for Portland's climate, soil conditions, and your property's sun exposure and drainage patterns. Once approved, we handle all installation and can set you up with a maintenance schedule to keep everything looking sharp.
Absolutely. We can integrate hardscape elements like patios, walkways, retaining walls, and fire pits into your landscape design. We also handle grading and drainage as part of the landscaping process so your outdoor space not only looks great but functions properly through Portland's heavy rain and snowmelt seasons.

We needed a dumpster for a full kitchen renovation and they had it in our driveway the next morning. Boards down to protect the asphalt, fair price, and they picked it up the day we called. No hassle at all.

I use these guys for excavation and dumpsters on most of my builds. They show up when they say they will, the operators know how to handle ledge, and billing is always straightforward. Hard to find that combination around here.

They cleared our lot, graded the whole thing, installed drainage, and handled all the debris in their own dumpsters. One crew, one invoice. Saved us weeks of coordinating different contractors.
