More details to this question:
I own a tattoo shop. I have rented a dumpster month to month from company "A" for a while. Found another company cheaper and requested that "A" dumpster company pick up their dumpster in June. After contacting them many times and even talking to the company, they still haven't picked it up 8/14/14. So is this abandoned?

Look at your contract with "A". It should cover the timeliness issue and should control situation. If not, I would suggest sending A certified letter demanding immediate removal and advising that after date "X" the dumpster will be considered abandoned and disposed of. May not meet the letter of the law but at least it gives you some cover.
