How Big Is a 10 Yard Dumpster?
The 10 yard dumpster sizes we deliver hold about 10 cubic yards of debris, which covers a garage cleanout, a small deck teardown or a bathroom gut job. The dumpster measurements stay consistent across the fleet, so what you see on the dumpster sizes and dimensions page matches what shows up on your driveway. Before booking, check what cannot go in a dumpster, since paint, tires and certain chemicals need separate handling. A roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so measure your driveway or street frontage in Greensboro before the truck shows up. If your space is tight, ask about dumpster permit requirements for placing a container at the curb. For bigger jobs, compare against the 20 yard dumpster rental or the 30 yard dumpster rental before you commit to the smaller box.
What Does a 10 Yard Dumpster Cost in Greensboro?
Pricing depends on how long you need the container and what's going into it. Here's what a 10 yard roll off dumpster runs at Greensboro Porta Pros:
| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|
| day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
A delivery fee applies on top of the rental, and those run from about $100 to $500 depending on the day, week or month you book. Overloading past the fill line or tossing in banned material can add cost, so review dumpster weight limits first. For a full cost breakdown across sizes, see dumpster rental cost or roll-off dumpster rental for the whole lineup. Renovation crews doing multi-week teardown jobs often find the weekly rate a better fit than daily; homeowners doing a weekend cleanout usually just need the day rate.
Do I Need a Permit for a 10 Yard Dumpster in Greensboro?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city. If your dumpster sits entirely on your own driveway or lot, that's usually simpler, but curb or street placement is a different conversation. Check dumpster permit requirements before scheduling delivery, and if you're running a jobsite with other equipment, our construction site services and construction dumpster rental pages cover how permits interact with fencing, power and toilets on the same site. Crews in Summerfield, 9.3 miles northwest of Greensboro, and Jamestown, 11.5 miles southwest, run into the same placement questions, so ask before drop-off day.
How much debris fits in a 10 yard dumpster?
About 3 to 4 pickup truck loads, or roughly 10 cubic yards. That covers small demo jobs, a single-room remodel or yard debris from a moderate cleanup. If you're not sure your project fits, compare loads against the 20 yard dumpster rental before booking.
How long can I keep a 10 yard dumpster?
Most renters keep it a day, a weekend or a full week; monthly terms exist too. Check the dumpster rental cost page for how price scales with duration, since a week costs more than a day but less per day than renting daily repeatedly.
What can't go in a 10 yard dumpster?
Certain chemicals, tires, paint and other banned items need separate disposal. Full detail lives on what cannot go in a dumpster. Loading banned material can delay pickup or add fees, so check that list before you start tossing debris in.
Is a permit required to place the dumpster at my curb?
That depends on where it sits. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city, so call ahead if you're not putting it on your own driveway. See dumpster permit requirements for what to ask.
