Frequently Asked Questions

We offer 10-yard, 15-yard, 20-yard, and 30-yard roll-off dumpsters. Our 10-yard works well for smaller cleanouts and heavy debris, 15- and 20-yard dumpsters handle most home renovations and cleanouts, and our 30-yard is ideal for larger construction, demolition, and high-volume projects.

Snappy Dumpster Rental’s standard residential rates are $350 for a 10-yard dumpster, $400 for a 15-yard dumpster, $425 for a 20-yard dumpster, and $650 for a 30-yard dumpster. Base pricing includes delivery, pickup, up to 7 days of rental time, and an included disposal weight allowance. Additional days are $10 per day, and customers can keep the dumpster as long as needed. Final pricing may vary by delivery distance and excess disposal weight. See our full Sizes and Pricing breakdown for details on every size.

Included disposal weight depends on dumpster size: 1 ton with a 10-yard dumpster, 1.5 tons with a 15-yard, 2 tons with a 20-yard, and 3 tons with a 30-yard. Additional weight is charged separately if your load exceeds the included allowance.  Regardless of size, maximum weight allowance is 6 tons due to the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of our tucks.

Concrete, Asphalt, Gravel that is hard packed is always the best surface. We can set the dumpster on grass if requested; however we are not responsible for any damages ensued.

Hazardous and restricted materials are not allowed in the dumpster, including: paint (unless fully dried and hard), paint thinner, gasoline, oil (hydraulic, transmission, engine, etc.), antifreeze, batteries, propane tanks, and other hazardous chemicals. Refrigerators or AC units containing refrigerant also need special handling and cannot go in a standard dumpster. If you're not sure whether an item is allowed, call us before you load it and we'll help you find the right option. For a full list of accepted and restricted materials, see our What Cannot Go In A Dumpster guide.

Yes. Our dumpsters are driveway-safe, and driveway protection boards are available upon request to help prevent surface damage. Just let us know when you book if you'd like boards used.

Dumpsters can only be loaded to the top. Snappy Dumpster tarps all loads to ensure that we do not lose anything on the roadway. An overloaded dumpster may have items piled over the top, preventing a tarp from covering the load. In this case, we will not pick up the dumpster and a dry run charge will be applied. We always recommend asking us if the load is questionable.

Need a dumpster today? Order early and we can often deliver the same day, depending on your location, available inventory, and route capacity. Book online or call us as early as possible for the best chance of same-day service.

Our standard residential rental includes up to 7 days. If you need more time, you can keep the dumpster as long as needed for $10 per additional day. There is no need to rush your project just because the first week is over.

Snappy Dumpster can deliver the dumpster without anyone being home or on site, as long as we have been provided with instructions on where to place the dumpster. Photo's will be sent prior to our truck leaving the scene.

Most times permit's are not needed when the dumpster is placed in a residential yard or in the roadway in front of the property. It is always best to ask your HOA if they have any rules governing dumpsters.

Tires must be disclosed by text or calling our office prior to any being put in the dumpster. Instructions will be provided and must be followed.

All dumpsters have doors in the back that allow you to walk into the dumpster. We recommend putting larger items in first and filling the remaining space with the smaller items. Breaking down unusable items will save space and allow more to be placed into the dumpster. Please feel free to ask our staff for any further instructions.
