Dumpster Rental Tips

10 Yard Dumpsters

Cost breakdown for a 10 yard roll off container

Depending upon where you live, the cost of renting a 10 yard dumpster can range from $200 to more than $500 for a standard 7-day rental. This cost typically covers drop-off/pick-up of the container, a certain amount of weight, and disposal fees. Here are some other fees that may apply in some situations:

  • Permit fees if the dumpster will be placed in the public right-of-way (e.g., street or sidewalk).
  • Over-the-limit fees for going over your weight allowance. It averages about $50 per ton, nationally.
  • Certain wastes may incur additional fees, such as tires.
  • Keeping the dumpster additional days typically incurs a $10-$20 per day fee (may vary).

How do dumpster rental companies protect my driveway?

When dropping off a roll-off container, the driver can lay down plywood to protect the driveway. Be sure to ask for this service, as not all dumpster rental companies do this without the customer specifically asking them to.

Alternatively, you can go with a dumpster trailer, which is on wheels rather than having feet. Wheels are easier on concrete or asphalt surfaces. Not all rental providers offer dumpster trailers, so you may have to call around.
