# Dan's Rubbish Removal & Dumpster Rentals, LLC **Trade:** Junk Removal · **Address:** 210 Park Ave #329, Worcester, MA 01609, USA · **Phone:** (508) 796-5096 · **Website:** https://www.dansrubbish.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 4.3/5** (medium confidence) — from 67 reviews across 4 sources. 99% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 6 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Dan's Rubbish Removal & Dumpster Rentals is a Worcester operation where the person answering the phone is often Dan Gallagher himself. The site describes the company as family- and Veteran-owned; it rents 10, 15 and 20-yard dumpsters and hauls away household, office and contractor debris across Central Massachusetts, from Worcester out through Framingham, Auburn, Grafton and a long list of nearby towns. What shows up again and again in reviews is how personally he runs it. He calls back himself, works around bad weather, and places the dumpster where it won't block a driveway or sit on the lawn. One customer needed an emergency dumpster at 6:30am on the last day of a move and had Dan respond before the office even opened; another rented seven or eight dumpsters over several months while clearing out a family home and called the whole process surprisingly manageable given the circumstances. Several reviewers say they've come back more than once — one family used the service three times, another across two different properties — and reported the same responsiveness each time. Across 198 Google ratings the company holds a 5-star average, and the Better Business Bureau has accredited it with an A+ grade since January 2026. The one thing worth asking about upfront is how overage gets billed. A 2025 review called a charge for removing the container early excessive, while another customer that same year filled more of the dumpster than originally booked, was simply charged the difference, and called it easy. Get the terms on early pickup, extra weight, and going over the booked size in writing before you sign. For a single cleanout or a run of dumpsters spread over weeks, this is a small, hands-on operation that tends to answer fast and stay easy to reach through the whole rental — just confirm the overage pricing ahead of time. **Strengths:** - Personally responsive — Dan often answers and responds within hours - Careful placement — drivers protect driveways and lawns during drop-off - Repeat customers — several reviewers have rented multiple times - BBB A+ accredited — accredited business since January 2026 **Concerns:** - Overage billing — one 2025 review called an early-removal charge excessive ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Dan personally answers calls and responds fast, including a 6:30am emergency request on the last day of a move _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2kxVVJqQm1VVzg0WVd4RWVHNXROM2hHUVVkWk4xRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x502ec172d1a93d93!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOi1URjBmUW84YWxEeG5tN3hGQUdZN1E%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Spectacular service from Dan’s team.
