Unincorporated, so county and state rules apply: Colorado law (C.R.S. 43-5-301) bars any obstruction on a highway, county roads included, and neither Adams nor Arapahoe County publishes a permit for a dumpster in a county road. I-70 and SH 36 are state highways, which we keep clear. So the container goes on your driveway or lot.

Dumpster Rental in Strasburg
Where the first continuous transcontinental railroad was finished in 1870: commuter neighborhoods and acreage at the end of Colfax.
On August 15, 1870, the last spike of the first continuous transcontinental railroad was driven at Comanche Crossing, just east of Strasburg; the site is on the National Register, and its monument stands in Lyons Park in town. Colfax Avenue ends here at SH 36, and the old town along Main Street and the rail line still has a two-story building from 1907 at 1407 Main Street.
The Census counted 3,307 people in 2020, split between Adams and Arapahoe counties, and more than half the homes have been built since 2000, in commuter neighborhoods and on rural acreage. That means household clean-outs and remodels as well as larger property and ag clean-ups. Strasburg is about 29 miles east of our yard at I-70 exit 310, so book a day ahead; it is same-day or next morning depending on the route.

Do I need a permit in Strasburg?
Strasburg is not an incorporated town, so county and state rules apply, and between them they keep a container off the road. Colorado law bars anyone from placing “any obstruction whatsoever” on a highway (C.R.S. 43-5-301), and that includes county roads: it is a civil infraction, and the person responsible is also liable for any damage that results. Neither Adams nor Arapahoe County publishes a permit for placing a dumpster in a county road; road questions go to Adams County Public Works (720-523-6875) or Arapahoe County Engineering Services (720-874-6500), depending on which side of the county line you are on. I-70 and SH 36 are state highways: CDOT issues “Utility and Special Use Permits” for work in state highway right-of-way and publishes nothing about dumpsters, so we keep containers off them entirely. That puts the container on your driveway or lot. If you are in a homeowners association, check its rules on driveway containers before delivery day. And if you are taking a building down, every demolition in Colorado, homes included, needs a demolition approval notice from the state health department (CDPHE), filed at least 10 working days before work starts.
