Some rental companies offer unlimited weight rental packages, although you still have to abide by the rules against overfilling the dumpster.
For instance, is often times a “fill line” painted inside the dumpster that specifies how high you can fill it.
A number of rental providers charge by how much weight you load into the bin rather than charging an upfront price.
This would be an affordable option for loading of lightweight debris, such as household trash or junk.
On the other hand, heavy debris can rack up significant costs with this sort of payment strucutre, so a more standard base rate with an included weight allowance may be the more cost-effective way to go in this case.
