The 10-yard dumpster is the most compact roll-off container we offer, and the one most homeowners need. At just 3.5 feet tall and 12 feet long, it sits low to the ground and slides into a standard driveway without blocking your garage or your cars.
It holds about 10 cubic yards of debris: roughly three full-size pickup truck loads, or the contents of one to two average rooms. That makes it the go-to size for a focused weekend project: a garage cleanout, a single-bathroom remodel, a flooring tear-out, or a seasonal yard cleanup.
Because it's low-walled, it's also the easiest size to load. You can toss items over the side or roll a wheelbarrow up to it without a ramp. One flat, all-inclusive price covers delivery, your rental period, pickup, and disposal.
Real projects the 10-yard handles every day.

Clear years of boxes, old furniture, and accumulated clutter in a single weekend.

Handles tile, the old vanity, fixtures, and drywall from a one-bathroom renovation.

Branches, leaves, sod, and garden debris from seasonal cleanups and bed clearing.

Clear out a few rooms of household items and furniture quickly and cleanly.

Old carpet, padding, laminate, and tile from a room or two with room to spare.

Purge what you're not taking with you before, during, or after a move.
Most everyday debris is welcome. A few things, by law, can't go in.
*Rules vary by location. Not sure about an item? Just ask. We'll tell you exactly what's allowed in your area.
Every 10-yard rental includes a 1-ton (2,000 lb) weight allowance, plenty for household debris, furniture, and most cleanouts. Planning to toss something heavier, like concrete, brick, dirt, or roofing shingles? Just let us know when you order and we'll be happy to help set you up with the right amount of weight. No surprises, no stress.

Every 10-yard rental includes a 1-ton (2,000 lb) weight allowance, which is plenty for household debris, furniture, and most cleanouts. If you're disposing of heavier material like concrete, dirt, or shingles, just let us know when you book and we'll be happy to help set you up with more weight.
Yes, in almost all cases. It's about 12 ft long, 8 ft wide, and just 3.5 ft tall, roughly the footprint of a parking space. It fits standard driveways and usually leaves room for a vehicle in a two-car driveway.
About 10 cubic yards: roughly 3 pickup truck loads, 50-70 trash bags, or the contents of 1-2 average rooms. Bulky furniture fills it faster, so size up if you're clearing a whole home.
Most household junk, furniture, mattresses, carpet and flooring, drywall and remodeling debris, yard waste, wood, and non-refrigerant appliances. Hazardous materials, tires, batteries, refrigerants, and wet paint are not allowed. Just ask us if you're unsure about a specific item.
The standard rental period is 7 days, which is plenty for most small projects. Need it longer? Extensions are available. Just ask when you book or give us a call.
Same-day delivery is available in most areas when you order before noon local time; otherwise next-day is standard. Tell us your ZIP and we'll confirm the soonest drop-off.
No. As long as we know exactly where to place it and the spot is clear and accessible, you don't need to be home. We'll send confirmation when it's delivered.
Yes, but heavy materials reach the 1-ton weight allowance before the container is physically full. If your load is mostly concrete, brick, dirt, or shingles, let us know and we'll help you with the right weight allowance so there are no surprises.
If the dumpster sits on your private driveway, usually no. If it needs to go on a public street, your city may require a permit. We can walk you through it. Just ask when you order.
