Half the calls about dumpsters are about size. Undersize and you pay a second delivery; oversize and you pay for air. Here is how to pick.
By job
| Job | Size | Typical price per week |
| Garage cleanout, bathroom remodel, small roof | 10-yard | $325–$450 |
| Kitchen remodel, two-bedroom cleanout | 15-yard | $400–$525 |
| Whole house, large roof, big landscaping job | 20-yard | $450–$600 |
Weight
Concrete, tile, dirt and shingles hit the tonnage allowance before the container is half full. Say what you are loading and the quote will size it by weight, not volume.
Where it sits
On boards on the driveway, in East Brainerd and Ooltewah without a second thought. On Signal Mountain, in Highland Park and on the North Shore we look at the spot first, and if the container has to sit on the street the city may want a permit, which we handle before delivery.
Questions on this
Can I put a fridge in the dumpster?
Not with the refrigerant in it. We take appliances separately.
