OUR ROLE IN TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN CUSTOMERS AND HAULERS

5. Dumpster Market is a Neutral Venue for Customers and Haulers. We are not a broker, Customer, or Hauler, or an agent for any broker, Customer or Hauler. The Website acts as a venue or passive conduit where Customers and Haulers can interact and enter into agreements for the removal of junk and waste from Customer locations. We are not a party to any agreement made between Participants via the Website or other Dumpster Market software platforms. As a result, we have no control over the quality, safety, or legal aspects of the transactions that take place on our website.

6. No Investigation, Validation or Endorsement; No Agency. We do not prequalify or validate the claims of Haulers including with respect to their licensure, insurance and registration, or their compliance with any other applicable law or regulation. We do not endorse, recommend or refer any specific Hauler, nor do we have any control or influence over actions or decisions made by Customers or Haulers. All Participants make their own decisions and you acknowledge and agree that we are not in any way arranging junk or waste removal services on your behalf.

7. No Assurances or Guarantees. Because we are not involved in the actual transactions between Customers and Haulers, we have no control over the accuracy of listings, the availability of Haulers, or the ability of Haulers to remove or transport items. We cannot ensure a Hauler will actually remove the item(s) requested, or that the Hauler will dispose properly of any item(s) actually removed. We cannot and do not guarantee the ability of Participants to complete or fulfill any services booked through the Dumpster Market platform. Furthermore, due to the difficulty of individual authentication, especially on the Internet, we cannot and do not guarantee the verification of any Participant’s identity. While we do not obligate ourselves to conduct any identity verification, any identity verification methods that we may employ are strictly on a best efforts basis and should not be solely relied upon by any person. You acknowledge and agree that any and all communications, correspondence, verbal or written or by electronic means, or any warranties or representations, made with regard to the arrangement of junk or waste removal services are not provided by us and are specifically and solely between you and the other Dumpster Market Participant.

8. Entry into Agreements. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age and can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. If you are registering as a business entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement and to any agreements you may enter into using the Dumpster Market Services. Dumpster Market Services are not available to temporarily or indefinitely suspended Participants. Your Dumpster Market account may not be transferred or sold to another party. The Dumpster Market Services are for waste removal services only; you agree that any services arranged for over the Website or using the Dumpster Market Services will involve only junk and waste removal services. You are not permitted to use the Website or the Dumpster Market Services website as a means to sell or market any types of goods or products, unless specifically permitted by Dumpster Market in a separate writing.

9. Registration Fees. There is no listing, registration or subscription fees for Customer or Hauler accounts at this time, however, Dumpster Market reserves the right to establish any such fee or fees in the future.

CUSTOMER SPECIFICS

10. Customer Acceptance of Hauler Terms. The Hauler’s terms and conditions and tariffs apply to your agreement so Customer must read, understand and agree to those terms when booking services using the Website or the Dumpster Market Services. You are agreeing to the Hauler’s terms, conditions and tariffs, and entering into a legally binding agreement with the Hauler, unless the transaction is prohibited by law or by this Agreement. You acknowledge that, unless otherwise noted by the Hauler, arrival and removal dates and times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Cancellations may be requested by either party prior to services being rendered (see Section 18 for additional details). A Hauler reserves the right to inspect any item(s) to be removed before accepting them, and to refuse to remove any item prohibited by this Agreement or by law. Reminder: Dumpster Market does not screen or qualify Haulers for compliance with federal, state or local laws and regulations, including but not limited to Hauler compliance with junk and waste removal, handling and disposal laws and regulations.

11. Payments from Customers. Customer payments are required, in full, at the time that the Customer books services with a Hauler, also referred to as checkout. Payments must be made by credit card. Credit card information will be retained, and the storage and usage of such information is subject to the terms of this Agreement and our Privacy Policy as available on our Website. Additional charges, if any, as described in the transaction process as well as in the Hauler’s terms and conditions will be charged at appropriate times. Such charges may include overweight, extra time, unacceptable materials in the load and the like.

12. Pricing and Price Changes. Dumpster Market does not set or control prices offered by Haulers on the Website. The various prices offered for services are based upon Haulers proposed charge and additional fees and charges made by Dumpster Market. These prices are subject to change but they are locked in via checkout. The prices shown are for the services described and if the Customer requirements are different than the offer of services, the price may change the per the Haulers’ terms and conditions.

13. Dumpster Market Charges. Dumpster Market will charge a fee in each transaction that will be included in the price charged to the Customer and will include fees for its service and credit card or other transactional expenses. This fee is non-refundable unless Hauler fails to perform the agreed-to services.

14. Customer Credit Card. We require that Customers provide us with approval to retain his/her credit card information in our third-party payment gateway system (Stripe Inc.) and to charge the payment method in accordance with our services descriptions and the Haulers’ terms and conditions. As an example, in the event that a Customer orders (and pays in advance for) an open-top construction container for disposal of up to 3 tons, but the container actually ends up containing 5 tons, the Hauler will charge for the overage when Hauler dumps the waste at a disposal facility. In that situation, the Hauler will provide a disposal ticket and Dumpster Market will notify the Customer by email and charge the payment method we have on file. If Customer is assessed overage fees for items stated in the Vendor’s Terms and Conditions, Dumpster Market will notify the customer by email and charge the payment method on file for the stated amount plus a transaction fee.

15. Prohibited Items. Customer may not request services through the Website or the Dumpster Market that would cause any person to violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance, regulation or that requests or would cause a Hauler to transport or dispose of prohibited items. Prohibited items are hazardous or dangerous goods that may pose a danger to health, safety, or property while being transported (such as explosives, radioactive materials, flammable gases and solids, and toxic substances). Hazardous materials that cannot be shipped through the mail or by commercial carrier are not allowed on Dumpster Market. Full responsibility rests with the Customer to comply with all laws and regulations with respect to listing jobs involving, and requesting, the removal of all item(s).

HAULER SPECIFICS

16. Hauler Representations. As a Hauler, you must legally be able to remove waste that you agree to remove through the Website or the Dumpster Market Services. If you provide pricing and terms on the Website for waste removal services, you must also have in place a valid commercial general liability insurance policy with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 for each occurrence and in the aggregate, and by making an offering on the Website you are representing and warranting to Dumpster Market that you have such a policy. As a Hauler, you must have a valid license to operate the vehicle(s) you intend to use. You agree that it is your sole obligation to comply with all applicable laws, rules, statutes and regulations including without limitation any licensing requirements. You are solely responsible for all aspects of services, pricing and terms you offer to a Customer. You are solely responsible for performing any removal, and are not permitted to subcontract or bid out any removal services to third parties. All rates, services and terms of service are solely provided by the Haulers and not by Dumpster Market. You understand and acknowledge that all job information is provided by other registered users and Dumpster Market has no control over or responsibility for the accuracy of this information. You are responsible for reading all of the job details and by booking services on Dumpster Market you are entering into a legally binding agreement to complete the services as requested by the Customer. All information as provided by Hauler must be accurate, current and complete.

17. Payments to Haulers. Hauler payments are made on a weekly basis and will include all payments received for services performed the prior seven days for all of Customers of the Hauler. Subject to an additional fee, Hauler may request a more frequent pay-out schedule. Hauler may elect to receive payments either by ACH or check.

CANCELLATIONS AND CHARGEBACKS

18. Cancellation Requests. A cancellation may be requested by either the Customer or the Hauler after checkout through the Dumpster Market Website, but before any services are performed. Cancellations should only be requested after reasonable attempts have been made by the Customer and Hauler to reach an agreeable solution and it is certain that the services that were booked on the Dumpster Market Website must be cancelled. Either the Hauler or the Customer must make the request at least 48 hours prior to the time the dumpster is scheduled to be delivered. Failure to cancel within the time frame set forth herein will result in a $150 charge to the cancelling party’s credit card, Hauler account (if applicable) and/or other payment method

19. Refunds and Credits. For all cancellations that have been made in a timely basis, the amount charged at checkout will be refunded to the Customer through the payment method originally used, less a service charge of twenty-five dollars ($25.00).

20. Excessive Hauler Cancellations. Haulers that have excessive cancellations after a transaction is booked will be charged a variable surcharge asset set forth below, based on the number of cancellations in the prior 12 months. This surcharge will be deducted from any amounts otherwise due and owing Hauler from Dumpster Market for other work performed or charged to the Hauler.

Excessive Cancellation Surcharge Schedule
Cancellations in Prior 12 Months Surcharge Amount
2 or less $150 per cancellation
3 – 5 $200 per cancellation
6 –or more $300 per cancellation/banned from the site

21. Warranted Chargebacks. In situations where a chargeback may be warranted, such as when a Participant feels that their card or payment method has been charged fraudulently, the Participant should first notify Dumpster Market so that we may investigate the claim to determine if a chargeback is appropriate. If Dumpster Market determines that a chargeback is appropriate, it will reverse the payment. Dumpster Market will pursue collection from Hauler for any wrongfully paid sums related to such warranted chargeback. If Participant does not first submit the chargeback to Dumpster Market for review, it will be deemed unwarranted by Dumpster Market.

22. Unwarranted Chargebacks. Unwarranted chargebacks or payment reversals initiated by Participants are prohibited, may result in the suspension of your Dumpster Market account, and may result in Dumpster Market pursuing any and all options at its disposal to collect the withdrawn funds including, but not limited to, sending your unpaid account to a third party collections agency.

FEEDBACK POLICIES AND OUR LIMITED ROLE IN DISPUTES

34. Feedback and Ratings. For each Dumpster Market transaction, the Customer and the Hauler are allowed to rate each other by leaving feedback for one another. Feedback consists of a zero-to-five-star rating, along with a short comment about your experience. Ratings will be cumulative.

35. Content and Use of Feedback. Feedback consists of comments left by other Dumpster Market Participants and a composite feedback rating compiled by Dumpster Market. You agree that you will not use your Dumpster Market feedback in any venue other than the Website and the Dumpster Market Services. Participants should always use caution and good judgment when leaving feedback for another Participant because, Participants could be held legally responsible for damages to a Participants’ reputation if a court were to find that the remarks constitute libel or defamation. Under federal law (including without limitation the Communications Decency Act), because Dumpster Market does not censor feedback or investigate it for accuracy, Dumpster Market is not legally responsible for the remarks that Participants post, even if those remarks are defamatory. However, this law does not protect the person who leaves the feedback from responsibility for it.

36. Resolving Feedback Disputes. To maintain the integrity of the feedback system, feedback left for a Participant is a permanent part of that Participant’s profile. Generally, feedback comments cannot be edited at a later date. Participants should resolve any misunderstandings prior to leaving feedback, as most misunderstandings can and are resolved quickly through direct communication. There may be times when you are unhappy with, disagree with, or regret feedback that you left for another Participant r, or that may have been left for you. If you have a disagreement over feedback, you have the following options:

a. Reply to Feedback Received. Share your side of the story by responding to any comment that has been left for you. Your response will be shown directly below the comment left by the other Dumpster Market Participant.
b. Mutual Feedback Withdrawal. If both Participants are able to resolve a problem after feedback has been left, you can mutually agree to withdraw the feedback rating and comment. Both Participants must agree, and feedback will be withdrawn at the same time upon confirmation of the request by both Participants.
c. Feedback Comment Withdrawal. Dumpster Market will remove individual feedback comments only in very rare circumstances, such as but not limited to, when they violate certain Dumpster Market policies and instances when Dumpster Market receives a valid court order to remove feedback.

37. Dispute Resolution – Disputes with Dumpster Market. Disputes between you and Dumpster Market regarding our Services should be reported to Dumpster Market Support. Subject to the requirement that legal disputes must be submitted to arbitration as described in Section 54, we will attempt to resolve any disputes you have with us.

38. Dispute Resolution – Disputes among Participants. Because we are a neutral venue, we are not responsible for resolving any disputes between you and other Dumpster Market Participants regarding services, and it is the responsibility of Customers and Haulers to resolve all monetary disputes, damage claims, breach of contract claims, or other claims outside of Dumpster Market. Not as a limitation on the foregoing, if you report a dispute to Dumpster Market, we will make reasonable efforts to help both parties communicate; however, all disputes must be resolved directly between you and the other Participant. Therefore, if we are contacted by a Participants who claims to have a dispute with you regarding transactions completed on Dumpster Market and they request your contact information (including but not limited to any of your provided phone numbers and/or addresses) to discuss or settle the dispute, you expressly authorize us to release your provided contact information to the Dumpster Market Participants and you agree to release us from any and all liability associated therewith. We encourage you to report all Participant-to-Participant disputes to law enforcement officials, or a certified mediation or arbitration entity. When appropriate, we also encourage you to report disputes involving fraud, theft, or other criminal activity to the appropriate law enforcement agencies. Dumpster Market shall have no liability for, and you hereby release and agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Dumpster Market from any and all liability arising from or relating to, any act or omission of Dumpster Market with respect to any dispute arising between you and another Dumpster Market Participant.
