Condos and stratas often care less about the bin brand than about liability, parking, and mess. Expect requests for proof of insurance from the hauler, a described drop location, start/end dates, and sometimes a damage deposit for the courtyard or parkade ramp.
Many buildings ban bins in visitor parking without prior booking, and some prohibit overnight street-facing containers. Quiet-hour rules can block early-morning deliveries.
Start the approval email a week early. Offer haul-away as plan B if the board will not allow a container — crews can remove reno debris without occupying a stall for days. Never assume a visitor stall is fair game on demo morning.
