The most common length of a dumpster rental typically falls between 3-7 days.
It's likely that the dumpster rental quotes you receive will include at least a 3-day rental period, so what happens if you only want to rent a dumpster for one day?
It is possible to get a dumpster rental for only one day, but it may require a little more work to find a supplier that can accommodate this request.

Most dumpster rental companies are happy to accommodate their customers' requests regarding delivery and pick-up, but it's more a matter of if they're able to.
Roll-off dumpsters have to be hauled and delivered by special roll-off dumpster trucks, so if a company is very busy or short-staffed, they may not be able to offer that quick of a turnaround time.
Having a dumpster for one business day is very different than having a dumpster for 24 hours.
It will be much easier to find a company that is able to deliver a dumpster one day and pick it up the next versus finding a company that can deliver a dumpster at the beginning of their working day and have time to come back at the end of their day to pick it back up.
Some people assume that having a dumpster for less time might get them a better deal, but this is typically not the case.
The cost of a dumpster rental is heavily dependent on local landfill fees, the weight of debris you throw into the dumpster, and the type of material being tossed.
So whether you have a dumpster for 1 day or 5, you'll likely pay the same price.
The first step to finding a company that can offer a single day dumpster rental is to get multiple quotes.
Getting multiple dumpster rental quotes not only shows you what a competitive price is in your area, but it will also help you find the dumpster size and availability you require.
