One of the first things people want to know when they consider renting a dumpster is the price. Finding the right dumpster for your project is often difficult to budget. Find out what you can expect in dumpster rental prices and what goes into pricing.
How Much Does it Cost?
We understand that customers often just want a quick flat quote. However, residential and commercial dumpster rental prices can vary and it’s difficult or even impossible to just give one flat number that will apply to everyone.
Why do Prices Vary?
Several factors can affect dumpster costs. The first one is location. Dumpster rental prices will vary by area and possibly even by specific location in a particular area.
The rental cost of the dumpster will vary depending on its size and how long you choose to keep it. The larger the dumpster, or longer you need it for, the more you can expect to pay. You can save money by making sure that you choose the right size and length of rental for your project. If you’re unsure what you need, redbox+ Dumpsters can help you decide.
In addition to size, dumpsters have a weight limit, and going over it can increase your fees. Consider what you will be disposing of, as some debris is denser or weighs more than other types.
Before you book, make sure to clarify what waste is allowed and if any items will raise the price. Certain types of waste such as heavy appliances may necessitate special care or even require transportation to a separate facility, which can increase fees.
Permits can also add additional fees. Before you book, check with both your dumpster company and the local municipality to see if you need a special permit. You may need one, especially if you are blocking a public sidewalk or placing it on the street. Also, check with your homeowners’ association if you have one. Some HOAs will have special rules or fees for dumpster rentals.
What Size Dumpster to Get
In order to get the most bang for your buck when renting a dumpster, you need to make sure that you choose the right size. Choosing too small of a dumpster will require additional disposal trips and fees for that service, while too large of a dumpster will cost more than you need to spend.
Here are some recommended sizes for different projects:
- 10-yard dumpster: Suitable for a small cleanout or remodeling job of an apartment or a room, small-scale roofing project, landscaping, or hauling heavy debris.
- 15-yard dumpster: Good for a small project with bulkier debris, a single-home remodel, or attic and basement cleanouts.
- 20-yard dumpster: Suitable for whole-home cleanups, roofing projects, and large-scale landscaping projects.
- 30-yard dumpster: Can fit home remodeling debris, demolition debris, or trash from an estate cleanout.
- 40-yard dumpster: Can manage large-scale commercial or major home remodels and significant construction debris.
