A local business, run plainly
Bridgeport Dumpster Rental Solutions is owned and run by Anthony Ricci, built to bring straightforward, dependable dumpster service to Bridgeport homeowners and contractors. Too many companies make you chase a quote, guess at a size, and hope a truck shows up when it said it would. We set out to run the kind of outfit we'd want to call ourselves — a small team that actually answers the phone and follows through on what it promises.
That's still the whole mission: to make waste removal easier, cleaner and more straightforward for everyone in Bridgeport. Upfront pricing, responsible disposal, and staying involved in the community we live and work in — that isn't marketing language here, it's how the company actually runs day to day.
Bridgeport has long been known as Connecticut's largest city and, in an earlier era, as "the Park City" — a real manufacturing and industrial hub through the 19th and 20th centuries, home at various points to arms makers, sewing-machine factories and the workshops that made P.T. Barnum, once the city's own mayor, a genuinely local figure rather than just a circus name. Today the harbor, the mouth of the Housatonic River and Long Island Sound still shape the city's geography, and Metro-North rail and I-95 keep it tied closely to the suburban towns spreading north and east — from Stratford and Fairfield to Trumbull and Monroe. That mix of dense urban core and quieter suburban towns shapes a lot of what shows up on our schedule: renovation debris from an older downtown building one week, a routine driveway cleanout out toward Easton or Weston the next.
What we look like today
We own and manage our own dumpster fleet, handle scheduling and logistics in-house, and our own drivers deliver every container we set down. Our yard on 775 Washington Ave coordinates deliveries across Bridgeport and the towns spreading out across Greater Bridgeport — from Stratford and Fairfield out to Westport and Stamford.
Our team knows this area — the tighter downtown blocks where a container has to sit with extra care, the wide suburban driveways out past Easton, and how a dense city street changes what a delivery can handle compared to an open suburban lot. We know a container placed wrong on a tight downtown block can mean a blocked lane, and we know exactly what a coastal storm does to a delivery route along the shoreline towns.
Our promise, in one line: the flat rate we quote on the phone is the rate on the invoice, and if we ever get that wrong, we make it right — not you.
Why we care about where it ends up
Hauling debris for a living gives you a fairly direct relationship with the consequences. We live here. So we treat Connecticut's waste rules as more than paperwork — we sort out clean wood, metal, cardboard, concrete and yard debris where the volume justifies it, and we'd rather spend five minutes on the phone telling you where an old appliance should go than quietly let it become someone else's problem.
If you want the detail on that, the Connecticut DEEP publishes statewide guidance on solid waste and construction & demolition disposal, and CT DEEP's Construction & Demolition Materials Management program covers the C&D side specifically. Our own plain-English version is in this guide.
Bridgeport climate and geography, handled
Sitting on Long Island Sound means the terrain and the weather both change fast from one delivery to the next — a flat downtown lot one stop, a wooded suburban driveway climbing away from the water the next. A Nor'easter, coastal flooding near the shoreline towns and an ordinary New England winter are a genuine, practical consideration from late fall through early spring, and our drivers plan routes and timing around them rather than treating them as an exception. On the geography side, the Housatonic River meets the Sound right along our own service area near Stratford and Shelton, and Seaside Park — an Olmsted-designed waterfront park — anchors Bridgeport's own shoreline, part of what makes this stretch of coastal Connecticut feel distinct from the inland part of the state.
The rest of the year, steady renovation work in older Bridgeport neighborhoods, new construction out in the suburban towns and the usual seasonal cleanout work keep a predictable rhythm on our schedule alongside ordinary home cleanouts and remodels.

Our team
The people who answer the phone
Every call we take is handled by our own small team — not a rotating cast from a call center somewhere else. Here's exactly who you're talking to when you call Bridgeport Dumpster Rental.

Anthony Ricci
Owner & FounderAnthony built Bridgeport Dumpster Rental around a straightforward idea: run a dumpster company the way he'd want to be treated as a customer — one flat rate, a driver who actually knows the address, and a phone that gets answered by someone who can do something about the problem. He still expects to be the person you can reach directly if something goes sideways, and he's usually somewhere between the yard on 775 Washington Ave and a customer's driveway on any given day.

Paul Sheehan
COO & Operations DirectorPaul runs the day-to-day operation — the fleet, the routes and the schedule. He's the one who plots out how a delivery gets into a tight downtown block or a suburban driveway out near Easton without a wasted trip.

Jake Coelho
Lead DriverJake is behind the wheel more than anyone else on the team — from tight downtown blocks to new-build driveways out past Trumbull. He knows which streets need a careful approach before he ever gets the call.

Marcus Bellamy
DriverMarcus rounds out our delivery team, covering the suburban towns and the shoreline routes alike. Same careful approach to placement, every job, every neighborhood.

Diane Kowalski
HR ManagerDiane keeps the team staffed, trained and running the way Bridgeport customers expect — reliable people, on schedule, whatever the weather is doing off the Sound that week.

Sofia Almeida
Office ManagerSofia is usually the first voice you hear when you call, and the one who follows up after your rental to make sure the pickup went the way you expected.

What you can expect on delivery day
- A call or text ahead from your driver so you're not waiting around all day.
- Boards laid under the rails before the container touches your surface.
- Placement confirmed with you before it's set down, not after.
- A quick, honest rundown of what can and can't go in.
- The site left clean on pickup — we sweep up what falls.
Reviews
What customers tell us
Simple job, no drama. Container showed up on time, sat exactly where I asked, and got picked up the next morning after I called. That's really all I wanted.
Denise M.Trumbull — Garage Cleanout
After a bad Nor'easter took down half our fence line near the green, we needed debris gone fast before another system rolled in. They had a 20 yard here within a day and didn't blink at the wet, heavy branches.
Paul S.Milford — Coastal Storm Cleanup
We used them for a full new-build in Monroe and never once missed a scheduled swap. Same driver most weeks, which meant I didn't have to re-explain the site access every time. Flat rate held the whole way through.
Renata V.Monroe — New Construction

Answers
About Bridgeport Dumpster Rental — common questions
Is Bridgeport Dumpster Rental actually based in Bridgeport?
Yes. Our yard and office are at 775 Washington Ave, Bridgeport, CT 06604, and that's where our dispatch runs day to day. We're not an out-of-state call center — when you call (475) 244-1722 you reach our own Bridgeport team.
How long have you been in business?
We don't lead with a specific founding date because what matters more is how we operate today: a family-run, locally owned Bridgeport business with a small team that answers the phone and gets a container on your driveway when we say we will. Ask us about our track record with a specific job type and we'll give you a straight answer.
Are your drivers licensed and insured?
Our fleet and drivers are fully licensed and insured to operate in Connecticut. We're happy to provide a certificate of insurance for general contractors and property managers before a job starts — just ask when you call. It's a routine request for us, and we can usually turn it around the same day so it doesn't hold up your project schedule.
Do you work with contractors on ongoing jobs?
Constantly. Remodelers, roofers, property managers and builders working renovation projects in older Bridgeport neighborhoods, new-construction growth out in the suburban towns, and general contractors handling coastal storm cleanup make up a large share of our week. We can set up standing swap-out arrangements with a consistent driver, priority call windows during rough-weather stretches, and consolidated monthly invoicing. Call and ask for the commercial side, and we'll build a schedule that fits how your crews actually work.
What happens to the material after pickup?
Our driver weighs it, then sorts where the load makes sorting worthwhile — clean wood, scrap metal, cardboard, clean concrete and yard debris get diverted rather than landfilled. Everything else goes to a permitted disposal facility. Materials restricted from ordinary Connecticut landfill disposal are separated out and routed to the right facility, per CT Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (DEEP) - Solid Waste and CT DEEP - Construction & Demolition Materials Management rules.
