DUMPSTER RENTALS

Start with the type of debris and roughly how much of it you will produce. Small jobs like a garage cleanout, attic purge, or light landscaping usually fit a 10 or 15 yard. A 20 yard handles most kitchen or bathroom remodels. Bigger renovations, full roof replacements, and construction jobs often need a 30 or 40 yard for the added volume and bulkier materials. If you are on the fence, describe the project and debris type and we will recommend a size. Going one size up is almost always cheaper than paying for a second haul.

We carry 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 yard roll-offs. The 10 yard is good for small cleanouts, minor remodels, and yard debris. The 15 yard suits medium cleanouts and small renovations. The 20 yard is a flexible choice for home remodels, roofing, and larger cleanouts. The 30 and 40 yard sizes are built for construction, major renovations, and commercial jobs with heavy volume. Each size has its own footprint and weight limit, so picking the right one matters.

Yes. The Department of Transportation sets road weight limits based on material type and dumpster size, and we set included tonnage for each rental. Going over the included weight triggers an overage charge, billed per ton or per pound depending on the load. If you know you will be loading concrete, dirt, or roofing shingles, mention it when you book so we can match you with the right size and walk through any potential fees.

Each size has a set included weight that we share at booking. If your load is heavier than that, overage fees apply, calculated per ton or per pound over. Charges are always prorated, so you only pay for the actual overage. This typically happens with dense materials like concrete, dirt, brick, or shingles. The best way to avoid surprises is to estimate weight ahead of time and talk through the project at booking. If your load is heavy at pickup, we will let you know before billing.

If the dumpster sits on private property like your driveway or yard, a permit is usually not needed. If it has to go on a public street, sidewalk, or any right-of-way, most cities require a permit. Rules and fees vary, so check with Wausau, Wisconsin’s city or county public works or permitting office to confirm what applies to your address. Our team can help point you in the right direction if you are not sure where to start. For private property placements, verifying with local authorities is still a smart step to avoid fines.
