The company's website says its 20-yard construction-sized dumpsters suit most projects, and it lists a service area that includes Guilford, Madison, Clinton, Branford, Hamden, Milford, Wallingford, Ansonia and New Haven. A recent customer said the price was very reasonable compared to other companies they checked, and that Dawn was helpful and accommodating on the phone. A recent reviewer wrote that Dawn, the owner, was kind and helpful, and that drop-off and pick-up were seamless. A 2025 customer said Dawn talked them through what size would be enough, never trying to oversell, and let them keep the dumpster a few extra days at no additional charge during the slow time of year. A 2024 customer said they were advised to apply for an obstruction permit in case the dumpster had to go in the street; it ended up fitting in the driveway, which that customer credited to the driver's maneuvering. A 2022 customer said they called on a Thursday and got delivery the very next day, and that the drivers gave them time to put wood under the dumpster to protect the driveway before lowering it. In 2022, a customer clearing out old carpet said Dawn warned them rain was coming and to get a tarp so the carpet would not cost more from getting wet. A 2026 customer gave one star, saying the company did not accept wood, aluminum or mattresses, and that before taking a load it either removed those items or tried to charge more. A 2022 customer said the company was upfront about the costs of old television sets and mattresses. **Strengths:** - Next-day delivery — a 2022 customer called on a Thursday, delivered the next day - Sizing advice — a 2025 customer said Dawn never tried to oversell - Driveway protection — a 2022 customer was given time to place wood underneath **Concerns:** - Material restrictions — a 2026 customer said wood, aluminum and mattresses were refused ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 4.9 stars from 112 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Gorilla%20Dumpster%20Rentals&query_place_id=ChIJEZWgfEbV54kRTd0nMraGICM) — “Google: 4.9★ from 112 ratings” - Its website lists a service area including Guilford, Madison, Clinton, East Haven, Branford, Hamden, Milford, New Haven, Wallingford and Ansonia _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://gorilladumpsterrentals.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Guilford, Madison, Clinton, East Haven, Branford, Hamden, Killingworth, Milford, New Haven, North Branf…” - A 2025 customer said Dawn helped choose a dumpster size without overselling and allowed extra days at no charge _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2xVM1lVOUNiMmhwVkUxbFRWVmFTMkpZVkRCd1lrRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x232086b63227dd4d!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOlU3YU9Cb2hpVE1lTVVaS2JYVDBwYkE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ My neighbor and a couple others told me about Gorilla.
