What is a Covered Dumpster?
A covered dumpster has a removable tarp that keeps out rain, snow and wind.

Advantages of a Covered Dumpster
A covered dumpster — also known as a tarp top dumpster, enclosed dumpster, or water-tight dumpster — is a container equipped with a heavy-duty tarp that can easily be opened or closed. The tarp system sits on top of sturdy bows or ribs, keeping the cover tight and arched to shed rainwater and snow.
This design prevents pooling on top of the tarp, keeping the material inside dry and lightweight. Whether you’re managing debris, recyclables, or wet materials, keeping moisture out means fewer disposal issues, reduced odors, and less overall weight — saving you time and money.
What is a Sludge Box?
Sludge boxes are sealed dumpsters that can contain liquids or wet waste.

Sludge box dumpsters have a special sealed door to hold in liquids.
Common Uses for Sealed Dumpsters
Sludge Box Features
Covered dumpsters are often used with a sealed dumpster. For thicker or semi-liquid materials, such as sludge, slurry, or other viscous waste, Homewood Disposal Service offers sealed dumpsters, often referred to as sludge boxes. Unlike traditional open roll-off containers, sludge boxes are fully sealed and water-tight, featuring a gasketed rear door that prevents leaks during transport.
These boxes are designed to handle difficult waste streams like wastewater solids, wet soil, or pudding-like materials that would otherwise escape a standard dumpster. To make cleanup and disposal even easier, many customers use a plastic liner inside the sealed dumpster. The liner keeps the box clean, reduces sticking, and allows for quick and safe unloading of material at the disposal site.
