Municipal Permit Requirements Across Rhode Island

Rhode Island municipalities maintain individual permit requirements for dumpster placement on public streets and rights-of-way. Providence, Warwick, Cranston, Pawtucket, and other Rhode Island cities require advance permits for street-placed containers.

Compact Geography Enables Rapid Service
