10 Yard Dumpster Tips for Carlinville, IL

Are 10 yard trash containers safe for my driveway?

A 10 yard roll-off won’t cause damage to driveways in most cases. Most rental companies lay plywood beneath the container to minimize the risk of damage. Plywood should definitely be utilized on softer grounds, such as asphalt or the yard. Some rental providers offer dumpsters with rubber bumpers to greatly minimize the risk of damage, while others offer wheeled dumpsters. Both are good options that are safe for your driveway. Avoid overloading the dumpster to protect your driveway as well, as that extra weight can really put a strain on your driveway. Be particularly wary when loading heavy debris, such as dirt or concrete. These materials can weigh more than 3,000 lbs per cubic yard when packed in tightly. That weight can add up quickly if you’re not careful.

How much do 10 yard dumpsters cost?

The cost of renting a 10 yard dumpster is $250-$450 on average for a 7-day rental. Your particular dumpster rental price will depend on the following factors:

  • Location
  • Cost of living
  • Landfill fees
  • Type of debris
  • Volume and weight of the debris
  • Who you rent from
