Size matters greatly, and this you should carefully consider when renting a roll off container. The size of the container must just be right for the volume of waste you expect; renting a container that is way bigger than what you actually require is going to cost you more than necessary. You can save a lot of money when you choose a yarder that is just right for your needs. We are very particular of the contents because hazardous materials need extra permitting from the city and state and fines await those who violate this rule. But how can you tell what size to get?

There are 10-cubic yard dumpsters, 20, 30, and 40-cubic yarders, and you may also find sizes in between. Let’s outline the main differences of the different metal dumpsters:

Trash Removal, Garage and One-Room Upgrading: For a one-room remodeling project, you will probably just need a 20 cubic yarder for all your wastes, because a 20-cubic yarder can already hold 6 truckloads, which is supposed to be enough for a regular-sized room, but if it is a bigger area, such as the kitchen, and there are cabinets and kitchen appliances to dispose, a 30-cubic yarder will be more appropriate.

Multiple-Room Remodel: A multiple-room remodeling project, on the other hand, will require, at the very least, a 30-cubic yarder. Just remember, the larger the volume, the bigger the dumpster size.

One Storage Area Cleanup: Any rubbish from your basement, attic or garage will likely fit inside a 10-cubic yard container, or a 15-yard container. A 10-yard dumpster measures 12 feet across, eight feet wide and four feet high. If there are big appliances to dispose as well, though, go a size bigger, such as a 20-cubic yarder.

House or Yard Clear-out A whole house cleanup will most likely require a 15-20- cubic yard dumpster, a size that can typically accommodate your furniture. If the house is big, though, the 30-cubic yard dumpster may be more suitable. This should be big enough to store all your household junk. Of course, if you expect the wastes to amount to about 9 truckloads, then a bigger dumpster will be safer.

Landscaping or Gardening: A landscaping project will typically generate a small amount of wastes, so a 10-cubic or a 15-cubic yarder is usually a smart choice.

Major Projects and Construction: A 40-yard container can be the solution in what is expected to be a reasonably sized debris. Concrete and bricks, however, need heavy duty dumpster to handle the extra weight.

The information above serves only as guide to give you an idea of what to expect. However, accuracy is important in this case. Based on our experience, customers tend to over-estimate the actual volume of rubbish they have in their property and as a results, they spend more money than they should have.

What Our Customers Have to Say

How Much Should I Pay for Renting a Dumpster?

Although the price of renting our dumpsters is fixed, depending on the size and type, there are other factors that enters the equation. For instance, if you have specialty wastes (re: hazardous) or if there are landfill fees. The price could range from a couple of hundreds to thousands, depending on the contents, the size and type, length of use, permitting and landfill fees.

Below are among the examples why the dumpster price can go up:

• construction job sites
• remodeling projects
• roofing projects
• landscaping jobs
• home cleanouts
• just about any kind of debris removal

Also include these factors into the computation:

• roofing & shingles
• dirt & yard waste
• construction debris
• concrete
• household junk

As you can see, the actual cost will vary depending on individual needs, so you have to tell us the size of the project, the purpose, and other details first in order or us to come out with the amount when you rent a dumpster. Call us at [512-982-9268].

Should I Apply for a Permit for My Dumpster Rental?

You may not need to secure a permit for you to avail yourself of a container rental service, but it is a good idea to be equipped with the necessary documents for good measure. Often enough, a permit is required if the dumpster has to be parked outside your own property, such as a residential street, for instance.

You can unburden yourself of the hassle by renting an order that is small enough to fit on your property. Needless to say, do try to find out more about pertinent laws in your area by contacting Austin city office. If you want to spare yourself the trouble of getting a permit, then make sure you have enough space on your property for the dumpster. Actually, it all depends on city laws if you will have to secure a permit. Most US cities do not require a permit if the dumpster does not get in the way of another’s or a public property. Otherwise, a permit may be imperative. Better call your local Austin city office to know the permitting requirements.
