Trailer dumpsters, also referred to as dump trailers, are becoming an increasingly popular choice for homeowners that need a temporary disposal solution.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDue to their rubber wheels, trailer dumpsters are a surface-friendly, easily maneuvered alternative to a traditional roll-off container.
\r\n
We'll go over the different available sizes for dump trailers and how much weight they can hold on average so you can determine if a trailer dumpster is the right container choice for your project.
\r\n\r\n![\"Trailer](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/trailer-dumpsters_0.png\")
\r\nTrailer dumpsters come in a variety of different sizes, all measured in cubic yards. (1 cubic yard = 3 ft long x 3 ft wide x 3 ft high)
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe most popular sizes for trailer dumpsters are 10 yard, 15 yard, and 20 yard capacities, making them ideal for parking in smaller driveways or alleys.
\r\n
While not very popular, some companies do offer 30 yard and 40 yard dump trailers to accommodate larger scale projects, like new home construction or commercial roof replacement. Trailer dumpsters can also come in \"mini\" dumpster sizes for more flexible placement in tight spaces, including 5 yard, 6 yard, and 8 yard sizes. In-between sizes are sometimes available too, like 11 yard, 12 yard, or 25 yard dump trailers. The variety of different holding capacities available makes trailer dumpsters an attractive option for nearly every type of cleanup project you can think of.
\r\n\r\nCheck out the trailer below to see average dimensions of these trailer dumpsters to see how they'd fit in your space.
\r\n\r\n| Trailer Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tAverage Dimensions | \r\n\t\t
| 5 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t10 ft L x 6 ft W x 3 ft H | \r\n\t\t
| 6 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t8 ft L x 5 ft W x 4 ft H | \r\n\t\t

\r\nAccurately estimating the weight of dumpster contents can be the difference between several hundred dollars when it comes to dumpster costs. Renting a dumpster that is too small means that you'll either be charged overage fees or worse, have to rent a second or third dumpster. Overage fees from exceeding a dumpster's weight limit will cost you additional money per ton over the limit. These dumpster overage fees can add up quickly, especially when disposing of heavy material like brick and concrete.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOverage fees vary from company to company, but the average cost is $60-$100 per additional ton and having to rent a second dumpster will instantly double the cost of your disposal fees.
\r\n
Weight limits exist for the safety of the driver and all others on the road with them, as well as making sure that no damage is done to the dumpster itself or the axis it sits on. The following chart is meant to serve as a rough estimate for the weight limit of each dumpster size and will help you decide which size and weight limit your project will require.
\r\n\r\n| Trailer Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tAverage Weight Limit | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|
| 5 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t1,000 lbs (0.5 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 6 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t1,200 lbs (0.6 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 8 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t1,600 lbs (0.8 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 10 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t2,000 lbs (1.0 ton) | \r\n\t\t
| 11 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t2,200 lbs (1.1 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 12 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t2,600 lbs (1.3 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 15 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t4,000 lbs (2.0 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 17 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t4,600 lbs (2.3 tons) | \r\n\t\t
| 20 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t6,000-10,000 lbs (3.0-5.0 tons) | \r\n\t\t
Note: These are the average weight limits for the above trailer dumpster sizes. The trailer dumpster you rent may have a lower or higher weight limit than the average listed here.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Trailer dumpsters come in many sizes, and sometimes, they can hold more than their weight limit.
\r\n\r\nFor example, filling a 12 yard trailer dumpster with household junk only weighs 0.6 to 1.5 tons on average, but filling it with construction and demolition debris like wood, drywall, and plaster can weigh 1.5 to 6.0 tons when the dumpster is full.
\r\n\r\nAlways check with your dumpster provider for exact weight limits to avoid overage fees. In some cases, you may want to rent a larger dumpster with a bigger weight limit.
\r\n\r\nAs previously mentioned, it's important to make sure you not only choose a trailer dumpster that's big enough for the debris you're tossing, but also has a large enough weight limit.
\r\n\r\nBelow is an example of how much different size trailers full of different types of debris weigh on average.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
| Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tHousehold Junk Weight | \r\n\t\t\tC&D Debris Weight | \r\n\t\t\tRoofing Shingles Weight | \r\n\t\t
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.25-0.625 tons | \r\n\t\t\t0.625-2.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.5-2.25 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 6 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.3-0.75 tons | \r\n\t\t\t0.75-3.0 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.8-2.7 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 8 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.4-1.0 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.0-4.0 tons | \r\n\t\t\t2.4-3.6 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 10 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.5-1.25 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.25-5.0 tons | \r\n\t\t\t3.0-4.5 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 11 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.55-1.375 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.375-5.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\t3.3-5.0 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 12 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.6-1.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.5-6.0 tons | \r\n\t\t\t3.6-5.4 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 15 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.75-1.875 tons | \r\n\t\t\t1.875-7.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\t4.5-6.75 tons | \r\n\t\t
| 17 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t0.85-2.125 tons | \r\n\t\t\t2.125-8.5 tons | \r\n\t\t\t5.1-7.65 tons | \r\n\t\t

\r\nWhen it comes to comparing the cost of a trailer dumpster rental to a roll-off dumpster rental, there isn't much of a price discrepancy.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThere are many factors at play when it comes to the cost of a dumpster rental, and one of the biggest factors is the weight of your debris/trash.
\r\n
Dumpster rental companies are charged tipping fees at the landfill when they go to dump the contents of your container and these fees are based on the overall weight of your garbage. Because type and amount of debris is the biggest dumpster rental pricing factor, trailers and roll-offs are typically similar in price depending on the weight each size can carry.
\r\n\r\nHere are some other factors that affect the price of a dumpster rental:
\r\n\r\nIn addition to the weight of your junk, who you hire is a major factor in the bottom dollar you will pay for a dumpster rental.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRenting from locally-owned and operated companies not only benefits your community's economy, it's usually less costly.
\r\n
Finding local dumpster rental companies that service your area is easy with Hometown. By searching your zip code and providing some information about the type of dumpster you're looking for, you'll be shown local, licensed, and insured dumpster rental companies that service your area. You can also request no-obligation quotes from as many companies as you'd like to price shop and compare customer service.
\r\n\r\nThe following chart is based on U.S. national averages and will vary based on the factors mentioned above.
\r\n\r\n| Trailer Dumpster Size | \r\n\t\t\tAverage Cost to Rent Weekly | \r\n\t\t
| 5 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$150-$225 | \r\n\t\t
| 6 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$175-$250 | \r\n\t\t
| 8 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$225-$275 | \r\n\t\t
| 10 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$250-$350 | \r\n\t\t
| 11 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$250-$350 | \r\n\t\t
| 12 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$250-$350 | \r\n\t\t
| 15 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$300-$450 | \r\n\t\t
| 17 yard | \r\n\t\t\t$300-$450 | \r\n\t\t
| 20 Yard | \r\n\t\t\t$350-$450 | \r\n\t\t
Note: These are the average costs to rent a trailer dumpster based on size. The trailer dumpster you rent may cost more or less than the average price listed here.

\r\n\r\nSimply leaving your couch curbside does not mean that your regular trash service will pick it up and can likely get you fined in many areas.
\r\n\r\nWe'll go over the multiple options available when you have a couch that you need to get rid of.

\r\nIf your couch is still in decent condition, an easy way to get rid of your couch is to donate it.
\r\n\r\nSome places like Goodwill and The Salvation Army still take cloth furniture depending on where you live, but it’s becoming more and more common for these large pieces of furniture to no longer be accepted at large chain donation centers.
\r\n\r\nInstead, you could make a listing on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist and offer it as a free item to any families that may be in need.
\r\n\r\nNot only can you feel good about helping out a family in your community, but having someone come to you and remove your couch requires very little effort on your part.

\r\n\r\nSome municipal weekly trash pickup services offer bulk trash pickup, like furniture and appliances, if it is scheduled ahead of time, while others only offer it a few days out of the year. Not every company offers furniture removal, but double-checking with your local provider is worth a call.
\r\n\r\nIf you are able to arrange a pickup, placing your couch or futon curbside with the appropriate “ticket” or “tag” that is often provided by the trash service is usually all you need to do.
\r\n\r\nYou may be required to pay for this service ahead of time or you may see it on your trash service bill after the fact.
\r\n\r\nIt's important to follow the proper steps required before placing your couch at the end of your driveway even if you know that curbside furniture pickup is available by your weekly trash service, as not having the proper ticket/permit could result in fines and penalties by your city.
\r\n\r\nThe average cost for bulk item pickup by your weekly curbside trash service ranges between $35-$75, but could be more or less in your area.

\r\nRenting a dumpster to throw out your couch is a great idea if you also have a lot of other unwanted items to get rid of.
\r\n\r\nHaving a dumpster placed temporarily on your property is especially helpful if you’re cleaning out a whole house or living area, performing spring cleaning, and more.
\r\n\r\nIf you do a house cleanout and decide to rent a dumpster, be sure to ask the rental company which items are accepted in their dumpster and be as specific as possible about the items you intend on disposing of. This will ensure you avoid getting hit with overage fees that aren’t included in your dumpster rental quote.
\r\n\r\nA 10 yard dumpster is a popular choice for homeowners that need to get rid of furniture and other household items and typically run around $250-$450 for a 5-7 day rental period.
\r\n\r\nLearn more:
\r\n\r\nOne of the easiest ways to get rid of any unwanted furniture is to hire a junk removal service. Hiring a junk removal company to get rid of your old couch is affordable, fast, and requires zero labor on your end.
\r\n\r\nJunk removal costs will vary based on a variety of factors, like the amount of furniture you have to get rid of, costs of living in your area, ease of access, who you hire, and more.
\r\n\r\nWith that being said, the national average cost to have a single couch hauled away by a junk removal company runs between $150-$300.
\r\n\r\nWhether you decide that renting a dumpster or hiring a junk removal service is the better option for your couch removal, Hometown makes it easy to find reputable, locally-owned companies in your area.
\r\n\r\nBy entering your zip code and answering a few short questions about your junk removal or dumpster rental needs, you'll be shown licensed companies that service your location.

We recommend reaching out to at least three different providers for quotes to ensure you get the best price, customer service, and the availability that matches your couch removal needs.

\r\n\r\n\r\n
Roll-off dumpsters are the type of dumpster that homeowners and contractors can rent on a temporary basis, and they're pretty simple beasts.
\r\n\r\nThey have swinging doors on one side to allow you to walk heavy or bulky items into the dumpster, and feet or rollers on the bottom that are placed on wooden planks to protect your driveway or street from being damaged.
\r\n\r\nThese dumpsters are delivered to your home or job site, rolled off a truck, and placed on your property in the location you request.
\r\n\r\nThe truck that delivers and picks up the dumpster uses a large hook and pulley system, as demonstrated below.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
When you're done using the dumpster, you call the rental company and have them come pick it up using the same hook and pulley system.
\r\n\r\nDumpsters truly are the underrated superhero of waste disposal.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThere are a million and one reasons to rent a roll-off dumpster, and many people don’t realize exactly how useful they can be.
\r\n
Common Uses for Temporary Dumpsters
\r\n\r\nCommercial dumpsters are the permanent dumpsters that businesses use.
\r\n\r\nThese dumpsters aren't rented on a temporary basis, like roll-off dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nInstead, they are emptied on a regular schedule for an extended period of time as a way of managing that company's waste stream, just like your curbside trash.
\r\n\r\nThese containers typically hold 2 cubic yards to 8 cubic yards of trash and are smaller than most temporary roll-off dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nThese trash containers have a lid to prevent the public from tossing their trash in, to keep out rain and snow, control odors, and deter pests.
\r\n\r\nConstruction dumpsters are another name given to temporary roll-off dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nHowever, these dumpsters can be used for more than just construction debris removal.
\r\n\r\nConstruction dumpster rental is the ideal solution for any large cleanup job, like cleaning out a home, garage, or attic.
\r\n\r\nThey're also perfect for handling debris from a home remodeling project or removing large amounts of yard waste.
\r\n\r\nTypically holding 10 cubic yards to 40 cubic yards of debris, these are larger, open-top trash containers rented on a temporary basis.
\r\n\r\n![\"common](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/common-dumpster-sizes-and-dimensions-infographic.jpg\")
\r\nDumpsters come in a wide range of sizes measured in cubic yards, indicating the volume of debris the container can hold.
\r\n\r\nAbove are some of the most commonly used dumpster sizes (and their dimensions), one of which will be better for your project than the rest.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTrying to squeeze all your junk into a dumpster that's too small can be costly, leading to overage fees or the need for additional dumpsters. It's always better to overestimate the amount of stuff you want to get rid of rather than underestimate it.
\r\n
We understand that it can be difficult to estimate how much construction debris or household junk you will have.
\r\n\r\nHarder yet is trying to predict exactly how much stuff you'll want to get rid of once a big, convenient dumpster is sitting in your driveway.
\r\n\r\nIt's tempting to pinch pennies, but more often than not, that going with the smaller dumpster leads to trouble.
\r\n\r\n10 Yard Containers
\r\n\r\n15-20 Yard Containers
\r\n\r\n30-40 Yard Containers
\r\n\r\nNot surprisingly, the price of dumpster rental goes up with size, but there are a number of other factors that affect dumpster price.
\r\n\r\nAs mentioned previously, skimping on size is not the way to go.
\r\n\r\nIt costs more to have two 10 yard dumpsters delivered to your property than one 20 yard bin, so it's always better to go up a dumpster size when in doubt.
\r\n\r\nDepending on where you're located, you may be able to save some money by sending some of the debris to a recycling facility, where disposal fees are much less expensive.
\r\n\r\nIf you plan on putting shingles, concrete, or construction debris (like wood or drywall) in your dumpster, you may be able to \"clean load\" it by only filling it with that material.
\r\n\r\nFrom there, it can be taken directly to a local recycling facility, where recycling fees are low and you save money.
\r\n\r\nA majority of rental agreements include a certain amount of weight, called the \"weight allowance,\" and that number plays a role in price, too.
\r\n\r\nFor example, if you go over your dumpster's included weight limit, you'll be charged extra.
\r\n\r\nThe type of project you have will affect the weight of your debris.
\r\n\r\nTypically, household junk is on the lighter side.
\r\n\r\nRoofing shingles, concrete, dirt, and construction debris are all on the heavier side, and as such, may cost more to dispose of.
\r\n\r\nEstimating the volume of waste you have can be difficult, but dumpster rental providers are experts at knowing which size is right for your project.
\r\n\r\nTo ensure you get the best price and the best customer service when renting a dumpster, we recommend reaching out to three or more companies for quotes. This will help ensure you choose the right dumpster size and choose the right dumpster service for you and your project.
\r\n\r\nKeep reading:
\r\n\r\nToo often, customers are surprised by dumpster overage charges and fees, so it's important to understand the rental terms by reading the contract thoroughly.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTo ensure your dumpster rental goes smoothly, know your rental terms ahead of time.
\r\n
Here are just some of the things you should discuss with your contractor before scheduling delivery:
\r\n\r\nUnderstanding the weight included in your dumpster rental is particularly important if you're disposing of heavy debris.
\r\n\r\nIf you go over your weight limit, you will have to pay additional fees, which can add up quickly.
\r\n\r\nSome companies will automatically come pick the dumpster up at the end of your rental period, but we recommend contacting the company as soon as you’re done with your dumpster to let them know they can pick it up.
\r\n\r\nThe sooner you call, the sooner all your junk will be hauled away.
\r\n\r\nBecause each hauling company works a little differently, and they have different exceptions to rules, we recommend confirming with them what can and cannot be put in their dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nIf you have a small amount of concrete, ask your hauler if you can include it with household junk.
\r\n\r\nNever try sneaking in debris you’re not supposed to; the additional weight and overage fees aren’t worth it.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
You can put nearly anything considered \"general waste\" into your dumpster, which includes, but is not limited to:
\r\n\r\nSome materials are only allowed in dumpsters if they are “clean loaded,” meaning it is the only material in the dumpster.
\r\n\r\nThese include:
\r\n\r\nCheck with your contractor to see what discounts are available for clean-loading your dumpster.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
You cannot put hazardous waste or liquids, food waste, and other hazardous materials into your dumpster.
\r\n\r\nThis includes, but is not limited to:
\r\n\r\nIf you have any hazardous or unacceptable items, talk with your contractor or contact your local county office to learn how and where you can properly dispose of hazardous wastes.

\r\n\r\nOnce you've shopped around a bit and you've found the best company/price for you, it's time to schedule a delivery day and time.
\r\n\r\nContact the company of choice and let them know when you need your dumpster.
\r\n\r\nIf they can't provide the dumpster when you need it, you will likely want to call another company.
\r\n\r\nWhen scheduling delivery, be sure to let the company know if you want it dropped off somewhere other than your driveway.
\r\n\r\nIf you have a specific location in mind, point them in the right direction and let them know where you'd like your dumpster placed.
\r\n\r\nThey'll usually place wood planks underneath the dumpster to protect your driveway/property and make sure it's set up for easy access, but be sure your site is ready for dumpster drop-off.
\r\n\r\nDumpster rental companies get busy, especially in the warmer months, so to ensure you get the right size dumpster when you need it, schedule to have a dumpster delivered to your property the day before you intend to start your project.

\r\n\r\nWe recommend being as space-conscious as possible to ensure you have enough space for the junk you'd like to get rid of.
\r\n\r\nThis is especially true if you're getting rid of various pieces of furniture or other relatively lightweight odds and ends.
\r\n\r\nOnce you’re done using your dumpster, contact the rental company to let them know you’re ready for it to be picked up.
\r\n\r\nWhen they arrive, they’ll place a hook on your dumpster, pull it back onto their truck, and haul it away (as shown below).
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n
In order to guarantee your dumpster pick-up goes smoothly, avoid overfilling the dumpster, and make sure the dumpster pick-up truck can easily access it.
\r\n\r\nFor example, if a car is parked in front of your dumpster and you’re not home when they come to pick it up, you’ll have to pay what’s commonly referred to as a “dry run” or “trip charge.”
\r\n\r\nYou can also be charged for driver delay and container dig-out if your dumpster is stuck or you delay the driver in any way.

\r\n\r\nSimilarly, junk removal services are often priced based on the amount of space the junk takes up in the company's truck or trailer.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nKnowing how to estimate the cubic yardage of your junk or debris will make it easier for you to choose the right service for your project and how much you can expect to pay.
\r\n
To measure a cubic yard of waste, it helps to assemble the junk or debris you're trying to measure into a pile as much as you can so you can see what you're working with and adequately measure it.
\r\n\r\nA cubic yard measures 1 yard long x 1 yard wide x 1 yard high.
\r\n\r\nOn average, 4-6 garbage bags can fit inside a cubic yard, but it's harder to estimate more oddly shaped items, like furniture.
\r\n\r\nOne yard is three feet, so imagine how many 3 ft cubes it will take to hold the amount of junk or debris you have.
\r\n\r\nIf your junk is able to be separated and piled, it will be easier to assess and accurately determine the dumpster size you'll need or if junk removal is perhaps the better option (which is often the case if you have less than 7 cubic yards of debris).
\r\n\r\nThis cubic yard calculator is a helpful tool if you need help measuring how much debris or waste you need to dispose of.

\r\n\r\nDumpster rentals and junk removal services are often priced based on the cubic yardage of debris/junk you have. Find out how to estimate the cubic yardage of your junk or debris to easier decide which service is right for your project and how much you can expect to pay.

Residential dumpsters come in a variety of different styles and sizes to accommodate small to large home cleanouts, but choosing the right dumpster size can be the difference between staying within your budget and overspending by hundreds of dollars.
\r\n\r\n![\"Best](\"/sites/default/files/inline-images/best-dumpster-sizes-home-cleanouts-info.png\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nDumpster sizes are measured by their cubic yardage and the most common sizes have 10 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard, and 40 yard capacities.
\r\n\r\nSome companies offer \"mini dumpsters\" that come in 2 yards to 10 yards, and some companies carry odd number sizes, like 15 yard and 25 yard dumpsters.
\r\n\r\nBecause the 10-40 yard dumpsters are by far the most common, they're usually the most cost-efficient as well, so we'll focus on those so that you get the most out of your rental.

\r\n\r\nOne of the most costly yet common mistakes that customers make when renting a dumpster is underestimating the amount of junk, garbage, or debris they have to get rid of.
\r\n\r\nCalculating the amount of trash you have can be notoriously difficult, which is why we recommend renting a dumpster one size larger than you think you'll need if you're on the fence.
\r\n\r\nThe difference between renting a 10 yard dumpster and a 20 yard dumpster is around $100-$200 on average for twice the amount of dumpster space.
\r\n\r\nGoing over your weight limit or having to rent a second or third dumpster, however, can end up costing you anywhere from $75-$450+.
\r\n\r\nMaking sure you understand the terms and conditions of your dumpster rental agreement is crucial to avoid spending more on your dumpster rental than your initial quote.
\r\n\r\nNearly every reputable dumpster rental company has a small list of items that are considered hazardous material that cannot be placed in their dumpsters, like paint, pesticides, rubber tires, freon containing appliances, etc., and adding unauthorized items and material is an instant fee added to your disposal bill.
\r\n\r\nAnother overlooked factor that affects the cost of a dumpster is the company you rent from.
\r\n\r\nIn the majority of situations, renting a dumpster from a small, locally-owned and operated dumpster company tends to cost less than renting a dumpster from a large, nationwide disposal chain.
\r\n\r\nAsk the right questions and get references before hiring anyone to ensure you're getting a competitive dumpster price in your area.
\r\n\r\nExtending your rental duration, not being ready or available for your scheduled delivery, and overfilling your dumpster are all ways you could end up overspending on your rental, so take the time to understand what is and isn't allowed before hiring a dumpster company.
