Weight, rental period and heavy debris

  • Included weight varies by package. Extra weight is usually charged per ton.
  • Rental periods vary. Extra days are usually charged per day.
  • Heavy debris — shingles, concrete, dirt, brick, plaster — can reach the weight limit quickly, even when the container looks half full.

Local pricing varies by dumpster size, included weight, rental period and material type. Pricing changes frequently. Request a current quote before ordering.

See the dumpster rental cost guide for what drives the total price.

Should you go up or down a size?

Move up to a 30 yard for bulky renovation debris or additions. With heavy material, a bigger container isn't always the answer — you may hit the weight limit before it's full.
