Who we are
A local team, run out of Columbus
CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus is based on 1535 Benning Dr in Columbus — when you call (762) 240-5587, you're booking directly with the company that stands behind your delivery. We handle every rental directly: our truck, our team, our yard, start to finish. There's no outside crew or subcontracted driver in someone else's paint.
We keep a full lineup of container sizes on hand — 10 through 40 yard — so a job that needs a different size than what was first ordered can usually be swapped without much delay.
The team
A small team, not a call center
Every call to (762) 240-5587 rings a real desk in Columbus, not a national dispatch queue reading off a script. It's a small team on purpose — people who know a South Columbus street or a Fort Benning-area address when they hear it described, can size a container over the phone without guessing, and are still there the next time you call.
The team
The people behind every delivery
Wade Pruitt
Owner & Founder
Leads CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus out of our 1535 Benning Dr yard, setting the standard every job runs to — our truck, our team, our yard, start to finish.
Greg Sanderson
Operations Manager
Keeps the schedule, the trucks and the yard running as one system — the person behind the scenes making sure the right container reaches the right address on time.
Tyler Cobb
Lead Driver
Sets more containers on Columbus-area driveways and jobsites than anyone else on the crew — careful placement, every time.
Denise Ford
HR & Compliance Manager
Handles hiring, safety and compliance for the crew — the person making sure every driver on the road is trained, insured and accountable.
Kristen Boyette
Customer Support Specialist
Usually the voice you hear when you call — sizing the right container, confirming the address, and getting you on the schedule.
Ashley Renfroe
Office Administrator
Keeps billing, paperwork and the office side of every job straight, so nothing falls through the cracks between the call and the delivery.
Doing right by Muscogee County
We route clean concrete, metal and recoverable material toward recovery wherever the job allows, and we keep yard waste separate from construction debris — small habits that add up across a full week of deliveries.
Straight from the office
How scheduling actually works
What we stand on
Things we will not trade away
Local, not a call center
You reach a real Columbus team, not a national dispatch queue. The person who answers knows which Chattahoochee Valley streets a loaded roll-off can actually turn onto and which permit rules apply that day.
One flat price, written down
Delivery, the rental period, pickup and a stated tonnage allowance rolled into a single number. If something would push you over, we tell you before the truck ever leaves the yard.
Same-day when you need it
Call early and most Columbus and the Chattahoochee Valley orders go out the same or next day. Live jobsite swap-outs get priority over everything else on the schedule.
Run by Wade Pruitt
Owner & Founder Wade Pruitt and the CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus team coordinate every delivery out of our 1535 Benning Dr yard — not a national dispatch desk. We know which Muscogee County roads a loaded roll-off can actually reach.
The right box, not the biggest
Weight fills a container long before volume does. We will talk you into the smaller can if that is the honest answer for your job.
Loads sorted the right way
Metals, masonry, unpainted wood, drywall, carpet and clean concrete all get routed for recovery instead of buried wherever's easiest — we will tell you what has to come out of the box before it ever reaches the scale.
Where we work
Columbus, at the fall line of the Chattahoochee
Columbus was established in 1828 at the fall line of the Chattahoochee River, and by the Civil War its mills made it the "Lowell of the South," ranking second only to Richmond, Virginia in manufacturing output for the Confederacy. Columbus and Muscogee County merged into a consolidated city-county government in 1971 — Georgia's first such consolidation — and today the city is home to Fortune 500 insurer Aflac, Global Payments (formerly TSYS) and Synovus, alongside Columbus State University's downtown RiverPark campus.
South of downtown sits Fort Benning, the massive Army installation bordering the neighborhoods where a good share of our jobs come from — heavy seasonal turnover from Army PCS moves keeps our schedule busy in those blocks. Along the river, the Chattahoochee RiverWalk and the whitewater course built after the old downtown dams came out are the kind of local landmarks our trucks pass every week, from a driveway near Bibb City to a jobsite out toward Upatoi.

Meet the work
What a normal week looks like
Monday might open with a 15 yard on a tight South Columbus driveway for a kitchen remodel, then a construction site swap-out over toward Midland or Fortson, where new building keeps our crew busy most weeks. Tuesday could be a PCS-season move-out near Fort Benning — the kind of job covered in our PCS season cleanout checklist.
Midweek there's usually a whole-home cleanout somewhere between Cusseta and Waverly Hall, or a junk removal job clearing out an estate in rural GA — the sort of thing covered in our rural Harris County estate cleanout guide. Fridays lean commercial: an office cleanout downtown, a property manager resetting units out toward Ellerslie.
Renovation work on an older Columbus home in Wynnton or Bibb City usually starts with a call about placement and permits before anything else — covered in our Columbus right-of-way permit guide. Storm cleanup calls climb after the kind of severe weather that hit Ellerslie in March 2019 — worth planning ahead for before the next system rolls through the Chattahoochee Valley.
Common questions
About CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus
Who runs CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus?
Wade Pruitt, our owner & founder, leads the company out of our 1535 Benning Dr yard in Columbus, alongside a small team that books, schedules, drives and follows up on every job across the Chattahoochee Valley. There's no national call center between you and the people running your delivery — you're talking to the company itself.
Is it really your own truck and your own crew on every job?
Yes. CGS Dumpster Rental Columbus handles your rental directly — our truck, our team, our yard, start to finish. We don't pass your job off to another company or a stranger driving a truck in someone else's paint. The person who answers the phone at (762) 240-5587 is the same company that shows up with the container.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — licensed to operate in Georgia and carrying general liability and commercial auto coverage. Contractors and property managers who need documentation on file before we come on site can ask when they call.
What areas do you cover?
Columbus, Fort Benning, Fortson, Midland, Cusseta, Ellerslie, Waverly Hall and Upatoi — every corner of Muscogee County and out into the surrounding Chattahoochee Valley communities is part of the regular route. If your address sits just outside that list, call anyway — we cover a lot of ground.
Do you know Georgia's disposal and debris rules?
We work inside them every week. Construction and demolition debris in Georgia is regulated under Georgia DNR/EPD Chapter 391-3-4 (Rules for Solid Waste Management), and it's unlawful statewide to burn manufactured materials like shingles, plastics or treated lumber, regardless of burn-barrel use. We route metals, masonry, unpainted wood, drywall and other recoverable material toward recovery separately whenever a job allows it, and we know where household, construction and yard-waste loads out of Muscogee County actually need to go.
Do I need a permit for my dumpster?
In most cases, no — a container that sits entirely on your own driveway or property generally doesn't trigger a City of Columbus right-of-way permit. A street or sidewalk placement is a different matter and runs through the Columbus Consolidated Government Department of Engineering. See our permit guide below, or just ask when you call and we'll tell you plainly which applies to your address.
My driveway is tight, or I'm not sure where a container will fit. Can you still deliver?
Almost always, yes. Older South Columbus blocks near Fort Benning and tighter lots out toward Fortson or Midland are something we size and place around every week. Curb-lane placement, a different driveway angle, or a smaller container set differently are all normal answers. Describe the spot when you call — a two-minute conversation up front beats a failed delivery on the day.
Do you work with contractors and property managers on ongoing accounts?
We do, and a good share of our week is repeat trade with builders, remodeling contractors and property managers running more than one site across Muscogee County. Accounts get priority scheduling on swap-outs, consistent handling across every site, and one line to call instead of a different vendor for every job.
Roughly what does a dumpster rental cost in Columbus?
We run straightforward, flat-rate pricing — one number covering delivery, the rental period, pickup and disposal, based on the container size, the type of debris and how long you keep it. We don't publish a generic price list because every job is genuinely different; call and we'll give you a straight quote for yours, free, before anything is scheduled.
