How Are Roll Off Dumpster Prices Determined?
Dumpster rental costs are determined by several key factors. The customizable search function on our online marketplace allows you to see a breakdown of the costs in your area and compare prices for vendors, duration, and more.
- Size. Our marketplace has 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yard roll off dumpsters. These dumpsters are ideal for different jobs so the prices will vary as well. The price reflects these size differences, which you’ll see in our marketplace.
- Use. Some materials-specific jobs, like disposing of concrete, require specialty equipment. Additionally, different types of debris go to different types of facilities. Household waste is easier to dispose of than larger debris, like furniture or appliances, which will be reflected in the price. Weight is also a factor in the price since that changes how your debris is disposed of after pickup. Remember, we cannot accept hazardous waste materials of any kind.
- Rental Period. The cost of renting a dumpster depends on how long you rent it. Most vendors charge by the week, which gives many renters ample time to complete their projects. However, longer rental periods are sometimes needed to complete the full course of a project, but they do result in higher costs. Additionally, if you need to change your rental period or extend it, you could potentially incur additional fees.
- Location. Our marketplace is able to service locations all over the country. Vendors set their prices according to market rates in their specific locations, which means you’ll see variations in price depending on where you rent from. Our marketplace helps keep costs transparent by offering you the option to compare prices and shop around for the plan that suits you best.
What About Taxes and Fees?
Tax will be included at check-out when you place your order in the marketplace or with one of our experts over the phone.
Additional dumpster rental fees depend on the specific vendor. Many vendors include delivery and pickup fees in their pricing, and show the fees upfront for weight overages and rental extensions. We’ll also walk you through inactivity fees, dry run fees, and cancellation fees. Here’s a breakdown of those possible extra dumpster rental fees.
Potential Additional Dumpster Rental Fees
- Cancellation fees. Vendors set their cancellation policies, usually with a certain percentage charged within a certain notice period. So take note of your vendor’s cancellation policy when you place your order.
- Inactivity/demurrage fees. This is a fee that’s charged if you keep the dumpster for a longer period of time than your contract permits. To avoid these fees, keep in contact with your ASAP representative to go over rental extension options.
- Dry run fees. For roll-off dumpsters, a dry run fee is charged when you schedule a pickup and cancel outside of the designated cancellation window. Vendors have set schedules, so this fee helps compensate them for the loss.
When you order with us, we’ll show you the options for your area and help you choose the right package with the right dumpster rental cost for you.
