Dumpster Service questions, answered by experts

The length of time you can keep a dumpster in your driveway depends on local guidelines and your rental provider’s policies. Many companies offer rentals for 5 to 10 days, while others allow extended periods. Many cities limit the total dumpster time for residential areas, typically to no more than 30 days per year. To avoid fines or issues, check with your local public works office and your dumpster rental company to understand the specific limits in your area.

Most people who rent a dumpster choose a 20-yard dumpster, which should be large enough for the following:

  • Bathroom remodels

  • Home cleanouts

  • Roof replacement

  • Large-scale landscaping projects

A 10-yard dumpster is suitable for the following projects:

  • Small bathroom remodel

  • Patio or deck demolition

  • Small landscaping projects

You might need a 30- or 40-yard dumpster for the following projects:

  • Large construction projects

  • Large demolition projects

  • Whole home renovations

You can ask your local dumpster rental company what size dumpster you need based on the specific project you have lined up.

Composting can be a great alternative if you’re looking for a way to dispose of food scraps without a garbage disposal. If you have the space in your yard, you can install a compost bin or compost pile and add food waste. After enough time and heat, the compost will break down and can be used to mulch your garden. 

If you don’t have space for compost, consider city-run programs or local companies that will pick up your food waste.

The average cost to rent a dumpster is around $400, but you could pay as low as $200 or up to $800 or more, depending on a few factors. The size of the dumpster is one of the biggest factors, with $400 covering a standard 20-yard dumpster, lower prices covering smaller ones, and higher prices covering up to a 40-yard dumpster. You might pay higher prices if you need access to the dumpster for longer than the standard week, as might be the case if you’re doing demolition or a large home renovation project.

Most municipalities allow dumpsters with proper permitting to sit on the street for up to a month, but you might need to file for extensions throughout that time to maintain your permit. You should always check with your local building department and your HOA if you’re a part of one to make sure you avoid fines.
