Some rental companies offer unlimited weight rental packages, although you still have to abide by the rules against overfilling the dumpster.
For instance, is often times a “fill line” painted inside the dumpster that specifies how high you can fill it.
A number of rental providers charge by how much weight you load into the bin rather than charging an upfront price.
This would be an affordable option for loading of lightweight debris, such as household trash or junk.
