Dumpster Rental Guide

What to Consider Before Renting a Roll-Off Dumpster


1. Know Your Project Size

  • Small projects: Seasonal cleanouts, garage decluttering → 15-yard dumpster.

  • Medium projects: Roofing jobs, kitchen remodels → 20-yard dumpster.

  • Large projects: Full home renovations, construction → 30-yard dumpster.

    (Tip: Bigger is often better—avoids overage fees and extra trips.)


2. Understand Weight Limits

  • Each dumpster includes a tonnage allowance (e.g., 2 tons for 15-yard, 3 tons for 20-yard, and 4 tons for 30-yard).

  • Heavy materials like shingles, drywall, concrete, or dirt add weight fast.

    (Tip: Ask about extra tonnage fees upfront.)


3. Check What You Can (and Can’t) Throw Away

  • Allowed: Household junk, construction debris, yard waste.

  • Not allowed: Hazardous materials, chemicals, tires, batteries.

    (Tip: Check out the ‘Prohibited Items’ list.)


4. Plan Your Rental Period

  • Common options: Weekend, 7-day, 14-day.

  • Longer projects? Ask about extensions.

  • Inclement weather ahead? Tarp your roll-off dumpster!

    (Tip: Schedule delivery a day before your project starts.)


5. Location, Location, Location

  • Make sure there’s space for the dumpster (driveway or flat surface).

  • Avoid blocking sidewalks or violating local ordinances.

  • Check our Customer Requirements and Acknowledgements

    (Tip: Check if you need a permit for street placement.)


6. Budget Wisely

  • Pricing usually includes local delivery, pickup, and tonnage allowance.

  • Watch for extra fees (overweight, extended rental, out-of-area delivery).

    (Tip: Get a clear quote before booking.)


7. Support Local

  • Choosing a family-owned, community-based company means better service and fair pricing.

    (Tip: You’re not just renting a dumpster—you’re supporting your neighbors.)
