Search All ProvidersA 10 yard dumpster is 14 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, and 3.5 feet high. It holds 10 cubic yards of debris, equivalent to about 3-4 pickup truck loads or 50-60 contractor trash bags. It's compact enough to fit in most driveways without blocking access.
A 10 yard dumpster rental typically costs $250-$450 depending on your location, rental duration, and debris type. The national average is around $350 for a 7-day rental period. This includes delivery, pickup, disposal fees (up to weight limit), and applicable taxes.
A 10 yard dumpster can hold: a complete bathroom renovation (vanity, tub, toilet, flooring), a single-car garage cleanout, 2-3 rooms of carpet removal, a small deck (up to 200 sq ft), or debris from a single-room renovation. It holds approximately 50-60 contractor trash bags of debris.
Most 10 yard dumpster rentals include 7 days. You can extend the rental period for additional daily or weekly fees, typically $5-15 per day. Contact your provider before the rental period expires to arrange an extension and avoid late fees.
The typical weight limit for a 10 yard dumpster is 2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 lbs). This is sufficient for most light debris like furniture, drywall, and household junk. Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, or roofing shingles have lower weight limits and may require a specialized container.
A 10 yard dumpster works for minor kitchen updates (replacing cabinets, countertops, flooring) but may be too small for a full kitchen gut renovation. If you're removing cabinets AND appliances AND flooring AND drywall, consider a 15-20 yard container to avoid running out of space.
Yes, a 10 yard dumpster (14' x 7.5' x 3.5') fits in most standard driveways. It requires about 60 feet of linear space for delivery truck access and 14-16 feet of placement area. Use plywood under the container to protect concrete or asphalt from weight damage.
Choose a 10 yard for small, contained projects: single room remodels, partial cleanouts, or light debris. Choose a 20 yard for multi-room projects, full home renovations, or when unsure about volume. The cost difference is usually $50-100, so it's better to overestimate than run out of space.
