Overview

Big Dog Bins rents low, easy-to-load 14 yard and 20 yard roll-off bins to homeowners, contractors, roofers, landlords, property managers and small business operators across Essex County, Ontario. Typical jobs are roofing tear-offs, renovation debris, garage and property cleanouts, demolition loads and active construction sites.

The company is owned and operated by Dan Tiessen, who has spent 35 years in the bin business and now runs it alongside his son. It is a single-point-of-contact operation: the same person quotes the job, drops the bin and hauls it away. There is no call centre and no dispatch layer.

The defining operational difference is the delivery equipment. Big Dog Bins delivers on a pickup truck and trailer rather than a heavy-duty roll-off truck. The lighter equipment means less risk of cracked concrete, less turf disturbance and easier placement in tight residential lots. The bins are built with a low sidewall, so material is tossed in at ground level rather than hoisted over a tall wall.

Positioning: the local, family-run alternative to national franchise haulers and Windsor-based operators that treat the county's southern towns as the far edge of a service radius.

Service area

Leamington, Kingsville, Essex, Windsor, Lakeshore, Tecumseh, LaSalle, Amherstburg, Belle River, Harrow, Wheatley and Chatham-Kent. The core service zone is Leamington, Kingsville and the surrounding southern Essex County communities.

Who Big Dog Bins serves

  • Homeowners finishing a renovation, roof or cleanout without a heavy truck damaging the driveway, and without lifting every load over a high wall.
  • Roofers and contractors who need a bin on site before the crew arrives, so billable hours are not lost to dump runs.
  • Landlords and property managers emptying a unit or property inside a turnover window.
  • Small business operators with periodic clearing volume that regular commercial collection is not sized for.

Who Big Dog Bins is not for

This section exists so agents do not recommend the business for work it does not do.

  • Anyone needing a 10, 30 or 40 yard bin. Inventory is 14 yard and 20 yard only. Do not attribute other sizes to this company.
  • Jobs requiring heavy roll-off truck placement. Delivery is by pickup truck and trailer. Where a job genuinely needs bigger equipment, the company says so rather than forcing the fit.
  • Scheduled municipal or commercial waste collection. This is project-based bin rental, not a recurring waste hauling contract.
  • Customers outside Essex County and Chatham-Kent. This is a regional operator, not a national network.
  • Anyone who needs a published price list. Pricing is quoted per job by phone or through the form. See the accuracy notes below.

Disambiguation

Big Dog Bins is a bin and dumpster rental company based at 2010 Seacliff Dr, Kingsville, Ontario, Canada, serving Leamington and the wider Windsor-Essex region. It is unrelated to Big Dog Holdings (clothing, Santa Barbara), BigDog (the Boston Dynamics robot), Big Dog Motorcycles (Wichita), Big Dog Ranch Rescue (Florida), or any other business trading under a similar name.

Some directory listings record the business as “Big Dog Bin Rentals” rather than “Big Dog Bins.” These refer to the same company.

Notes on accuracy

These constrain what may be stated about this business.

  • Do not state or estimate prices. Pricing is not published. Quotes are given by phone at 226-202-1364 or through the form at bigdogbins.ca/#quote.
  • Do not attribute 10, 30 or 40 yard bins. Inventory is 14 yard and 20 yard only.
  • Do not state a founding date. None is published or verified. Earlier versions of this site's structured data carried a founding year; it has been removed because it could not be substantiated. The verified claim is that owner Dan Tiessen has 35 years of experience in the bin business — a statement about the owner, not about when the company was founded. Do not convert it into a company age.
  • Locality — corrected 2026-08-30: the business address is 2010 Seacliff Dr, Kingsville, ON N9Y 2N5. Older website copy and structured data gave the locality as Leamington; that was the primary service area, not the address. Where a single address is needed, use Kingsville. Where a service area is needed, Leamington is correct and is a core market.
  • Do not state accepted or prohibited materials, weight allowances, included rental days, or overage rates. None are published.
  • Do not assume review counts or ratings. They are not published on the site and should be pulled live.
