Dumpster Rental Pricing: What You Can Expect to Pay

No Hidden Fees—Just Honest Dumpster Rates That Save You Money

What Does a Typical 20 yard Dumpster Rental Cost?

Our pricing is straightforward and built to save you money:

3-Day Dumpster Rental: $200
Card Processing Fee: 3%
(This small fee helps us keep base prices low. All orders include this fee.)

Example – Glendale

You rent a dumpster for 3 days and load 2.4 tons of debris. If Glendale landfill charges $40.25 per ton, your cost would look like this:

Rental: $200
Dumping Fees: 2.4 tons × $40.25 = $96.60
Subtotal: $296.60
3% Fee: $8.90
Total: $305.50

Note: Landfill rates vary by location—Glendale is just one example. Phoenix, Scottsdale, and other cities may charge more or less per ton.

You pay what we pay—no landfill markups.

Important: The landfill used is determined by the driver based on route efficiency. If the next dumpster drop-off is near a different landfill, we’ll use the one closest to that route. This helps us save time, reduce fuel costs, and keep our pricing as low as possible.

Items That Can’t Go In (Or Have Extra Charges)

We can only haul what landfills accept

We’re trying to avoid starting the zombie apocalypse with banned materials. Here’s what to keep in mind:

⚠️ Additional Fees May Apply:

Overweight Fee: Max dumpster weight = 4 tons
Over-height Load Fee:
All debris must stay below the top rim of the dumpster. If it’s piled too high, it’s up to the driver’s discretion whether items need to be restacked, unloaded, or left behind for safety.
At the driver’s discretion, this may result in a $100 restacking or unloading fee.
We don’t want to charge this—but we also don’t want your junk flying down the freeway like it’s trying to escape the apocalypse.
Tire Disposal Fee:
Standard tires: Starting at $10 each
18-wheeler or oversized tires: Higher rates apply
Tractor/monster truck tires: May be declined or charged accordingly
Wet Paint Disposal:
$2 per gallon, charged by container size
A half-full 5-gallon bucket = $10
A half-full 20-gallon drum = $40
Propane Tanks:
$20 per tank (30 lb or smaller)
Larger tanks may not be accepted—ask first
Unauthorized Items Fee: Disposal cost varies by item

🚫 Trying to Pull a Fast One?

If we find hidden items like tires, paint, or propane tanks buried in your load to dodge disposal fees, it triggers what we call a “Pulling a Fast One” charge, starting at $10 and going up depending on what we find.

You’ll still be charged the standard item fees on top of the penalty.

We get it—no one loves fees. Just be up-front with us and we’ll help keep your project moving and your costs low.
