How is dumpster weight calculated?
Dumpsters are weighed at the disposal facility, and any overage beyond the included tonnage is billed prorated at $225 per ton. More information about items that can cause a dumpster to be overweight are available on the Delivery & Pickup Logistics page.
What are the weight limits for each dumpster size?
10-yard: 1 ton
15-yard: 2 tons
20-yard: 3 tons
30-yard: 4 tons
Why are there weight limits on dumpsters?
Weight limits help comply with transportation regulations and disposal facility requirements.
Are there weight limits because of road laws?
Yes. Weight limits help comply with transportation safety regulations and landfill restrictions.
What is the difference between cubic yards and tons?
Cubic yards measure how much space the debris takes up. Tons measure how heavy the debris is. A dumpster can have room left but still be overweight if it contains heavy materials.
How do I choose the right dumpster size?
CAM’s staff can help recommend the best dumpster size based on your project type and debris volume. Contact us to schedule your dumpster rental.
What size dumpster do I need for my project?
Smaller cleanouts may only require a 10-yard dumpster. Home cleanouts often use a 15-yard or 20-yard dumpster, while larger renovations, roofing, or construction jobs may require a 20-yard or 30-yard dumpster. CAM’s staff can help recommend the best size based on your project type and debris volume. More information is also available for Homeowners and Contractors.
What are the dimensions of each dumpster size?
Dumpster dimensions vary by container. CAM’s can provide approximate dimensions for each size when you request a quote. Please let CAM’s know where the dumpster will be placed so the team can help confirm access, clearance, and fit.
Is dumpster rental pricing flat-rate?
Standard pricing includes delivery, pickup, the included weight limit, and up to two weeks of rental. Additional charges may apply for overweight loads, prohibited items, relocation, extended rental time, or specialty disposal items.
