What is the dumpster rental process like?
- Estimate what size dumpster you need - Roll-off dumpster sizes are quoted in the amount of cubic yards of debris the container will hold. Common sizes are 10 yard, 20 yard, and 30 yard. Click on a company's logo or name to visit their profile page, where you'll find sizes and dimensions of dumpsters available to rent.
- Research local dumpster rental companies - Find local services that have a good reputation, offer the size you need, at a price you can afford.
- Contact one or more service providers - Confirm information about prices, amount of weight included in the price, rental period, and other terms of the rental.
- Reserve the dumpster - It's best to schedule the dumpster for delivery for the day before you plan to start loading it.

What is a dumpster weight allowance?
When you rent a dumpster, it comes with a weight allowance. A major portion of dumpster rental pricing is the cost of disposal. Landfills and recycling centers charge disposal services for the weight of the debris, generally anywhere from $35 per ton (2,000 lbs) to $100 per ton. The amount of weight included in the price can range from 0 lbs to 1 ton (2,000 lbs) to 8 tons (16,000 lbs) or more. The bigger the dumpster, generally the greater the weight allowance. Dumpster companies generally pass the additional disposal fees on to the renter when your load goes over the included weight. If your dumpster price includes 2 tons of weight (4,000 lbs) and your debris weighs in at 6,000 lbs at the landfill, you'll end up paying the extra fees for the additional weight.
