The right size dumpster for you will depend on your project, but we can help you pick the right size for the right price.
What impacts the dumpster rental cost?
Location and volume will have the biggest impact on your dumpster-rental cost.
More volume not only requires a larger dumpster, but it also means the landfill will charge us a higher tonnage fee. Additionally, different cities charge different fees and taxes that vary widely.
How do I compare dumpster-rental price quotes?
Many companies who rent roll-off dumpsters charge a simple flat fee for a specific dumpster size, number of days, and tonnage. For example, you might receive a bid of $500 for a 30-yard dumpster for seven days, with a six-ton limit.
However, there are also companies who charge additional fees instead of inclusive pricing. These fees cover delivery, pickup, landfill costs, fuel charges, and more. It’s best to stick with companies who use upfront pricing so that you can more easily shop for better rates.
Keep in mind, everybody will charge extra if you exceed your tonnage or keep the dumpster longer than your quote covered.
