What Is A Roll Off Dumpster?

A roll of dumpster is a metal container with an open top that is dropped off by a specially designed truck. They are called roll off dumpsters be cause they roll off the back of the truck when being installed and roll back onto the truck when being retrieved. The dumpster is attached to the back of the truck and released via hydraulics to the position at the job site where it will be filled with material to be discarded.  When the dumpster is full, the dumpster is then pulled back onto the truck via hydraulics and driven to be disposed or recycled. Roll off dumpsters can be rented for as long as the duration of the project or for as short as a day or two. Roll off dumpsters have many names such as:  roll off containers, bins, debris boxed, tubs,  roll away dumpsters, cans, roll off boxes or temporary containers. Roll off dumpsters are an efficient and convenient way to remove unwanted material from a construction jobsite, demolition site, renovation, cleanout, clean up or any number of other use cases. Instead of those materials piling up and having to be moved piecemeal, they can be removed together in the container.

What Dumpster Sizes Are Available?

Dumpsters sized are standardized by cubic yard. The cubic yard is a unit of measurement for volume, that is, how much stuff a given container can hold. A cubic yard is a one yard, three feet, multiplied three times, or 27 feet total. Imagine a cube of space where the length, width and height are exactly three feet. When speaking of roll off dumpsters, 'cubic yard' is often abbreviated as simply 'yard'.  Our roll off dumpsters sizes available are 10 yard, 15 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard, and 40 yard sizes. Obviously, the larger the dumpster the more stuff it can hold the heavier it will be and the more it will cost.

How Are Dumpsters Priced?

Dumpsters are priced according to five factors: size of dumpster, length or rental time, weight of debris, . type of debris and location. They can be priced variably or with a flat rate. With variable rate pricing, the cost of a dumpster rental changes with the five factors. This is typically mostly borne out in weight limits. Some companies have ranges of weight below which one price is charged above which another is charged. This can be an advantage if a customer knows whether or not they're debris will be under a weight limit threshold, in that case they only pay for what they throw away. Variable weight pricing can be disadvantageous when a customer goes over a weight limit, is charged for the extra weight, and hadn't budgeted for it upfront, or a didn't factor in taxes and fees associated with the rental. Flat rate pricing has the advantage of one price for the rental, including pick up, drop off and rental of container. A disadvantage of flat rate pricing is that it always includes overage charges when certain rental terms are exceeded, most commonly weight limits and rental periods. With either variable rate pricing or flat rate pricing the customer is responsible for securing any necessary licenses or permits required by their jurisdiction.

What Are The Typical Weight Limits and Rental Times For Dumpsters?​

Weight limits for roll off dumpsters depend on the size of the dumpster and vary by location. Weight limits are not only important so the dumpster rental company knows how much to charge you, they are also important because trucks have limits to how much they can physically haul, roadways have limits on how heavy truck loads can be and loads that are too heavy can pose a safety hazard.  Weight limits are also important because after a container is picked, because the difference in weight before it is emptied, called the gross weight, and the weight after it is emptied, called the tare weight is used to calculate the how much the dumpster company is charged at the disposal facility. Typically, dumpster trucks have a maximum weight capacity of 20,000 pounds or 10 short tons.

The average weight limits for the standard dumpster sizes is as follows: 10 and 15 cubic yard dumpsters have an average a weight limit of 4,000 to 6000 pounds, or 2-3 three short tons, 20 cubic yard dumpsters have an average weight limit of 6,000 to 10,000 pounds, or 3 to 5 short tons, 30 cubic yard dumpsters have an average weight limit of 8,000 to 12, 000 pounds or 4 to 6 short tons and 40 cubic yard dumpsters have an average weight limit of 12,000 to 16,000 pounds or 6 to 8 short tons. 

Are There Other Things I Should Be Aware Of When Renting A Dumpster?

Besides price, reliability and customer services, things you'd expect with any service you'd contract, with dumpster rentals there are some things particular to dumpster rentals that we've found it is important for customers to be aware of ahead of time. One thing is dumpsters need to be installed on a hard surface. Surfaces like soft or wet soil or mud do not work. As you know dumpsters weight thousands of pounds when empty, in fact the smallest of our dumpsters the 10 foot dumpster weighs around 3,500 pounds, or one and three quarter tons. As you can imagine, since dumpsters are so heavy, when put on soft ground they can sink deeply and get stuck, making it very difficult for them to be retrieved back on to the truck. Another related problem is a heavy dumpster can damage surfaces like concrete and asphalt. it's important that if there is a risk of a heavy dumpster cracking the surface it lies on or the sinking into a surface that wood or some other solid material is placed under the dumpster. Another a issue are municipal permits, though most municipalities do not require a permit, it's important to know about it and request and pay for any permits ahead of time. Williamstown Dumpster Rental can advise you on whether municipal permits are required for your town.
