Dumpster rental pricing
How much does a roll-off cost in Houston? Our flat-rate covers the seven-day rental period; delivery and pickup are included — no surprise fees after the bin arrives at your site.
Flat-rate Pricing by Container Yardage
Every roll-off container in Houston is priced at a flat rate tied to the size you book—be it a 10, 20, 30, or 40-yard bin. This base price includes the delivery, a seven-day window, and the final haul; however, heavy materials like c&d debris or concrete often require a lowboy to stay under the weight limit. We use driveway boards to protect your property during placement in Harris; please review our contractor jobsite pricing tiers and local waste disposal regulations and tonnage rules to ensure your project stays within the allowed tonnage for your selected container.
Contractor accounts at Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental receive tiered pricing for volume: we maintain two sheets—residential and commercial—to ensure consistent quotes. Our hooklift trucks haul each dumpster to the yard so we can provide a scale ticket for every swap-out, and we hold net-30 terms for active construction container accounts.
What the flat rate covers
- + Delivery to your driveway or jobsite

How Our Roll-off Pricing Compares Locally
Ranges below reflect typical Twin Cities projects scaled for Houston — household cleanouts and light construction debris. Pricing matches national-chain rates for equivalent roll-off service. Recurring volume work — property management accounts or multi-site builds — moves to commercial billing rather than single-haul dumpster rentals.
10 yard
10-Yard Roll-Off
- Dimensions: 14′ × 7.5′ × 3.5′ · 2-ton allowance
- Weight overage: $50–$100 per ton over allowance
- Additional days: $10–$30 per day after 7-day window
A 10-yard container fits a single-room remodel or a small garage cleanout with a 2-ton weight limit because that caps the volume of heavy concrete or dirt.
$260 – $490
Flat-rate range
20 yard
20-Yard Roll-Off
- Dimensions: 22′ × 8′ × 4.5′ · 3-ton allowance
- Weight overage: $50–$100 per ton over allowance
- Additional days: $10–$30 per day after 7-day window
A 20-yard dumpster is sized for a full basement cleanout, as it works well for a roof tear-off of up to 30 squares of shingles.
$340 – $610
Flat-rate range
30 yard
30-Yard Roll-Off
- Dimensions: 22′ × 8′ × 6′ · 4-ton allowance
- Weight overage: $50–$100 per ton over allowance
- Additional days: $10–$30 per day after 7-day window
A 30-yard roll-off works for a whole-home cleanout or a multi-room remodel because it has the volume for the framing waste from a new addition.
$410 – $720
Flat-rate range
40 yard
40-Yard Roll-Off
- Dimensions: 22′ × 8′ × 8′ · 5-ton allowance
- Weight overage: $50–$100 per ton over allowance
- Additional days: $10–$30 per day after 7-day window
A 40-Yard Roll-Off Container handles commercial demolition or large estate cleanouts for bulky loads like cabinetry or drywall as long as the weight stays under the limit.
$490 – $860
Flat-rate range
Delivery and Pickup Costs Included
Every quote lists the flat rate—covering standard delivery, placement on driveway boards, and pickup—plus the weight allowance for roll-offs in Houston and Harris County. Heavy materials like concrete trigger a separate line charge; same-day swap-outs and extended-area deliveries get quoted before dispatch. The dumpster rate bundles core services—no hidden fees for residential cleanout pricing scenarios, which follow the same transparent flat-quote approach.
Standard Seven-day Rental Period and Extension Fees
A standard booking includes a seven-day rental window starting the morning we set the container. The full dumpster rental booking and delivery process explains how to request daily extensions or multi-week holds for phased projects. We charge a flat rate for each additional day the bin remains on-site, with fresh seven-day periods starting automatically if you need more time.
Prohibited materials that trigger surcharges
Liquid paint, automotive fluids, tires, electronics, refrigerators, and hazardous materials are prohibited and trigger a surcharge or pickup refusal. Ask before loading so we can route these items elsewhere.
Weight Overage Tonnage Charges per Ton
Every container comes with a published tonnage allowance for your project. We weigh every load at the scale to ensure accuracy when you move heavy concrete, dirt, or asphalt shingles; this means you only pay for what you use via a verifiable scale ticket. Instead of guessing, we bill based on actual weight, and we can pair this with commercial recurring billing options for regular jobs.
Booking deposit and accepted payment methods
A modest booking deposit holds your delivery slot and applies to the final invoice. We accept credit card and ACH for residential orders and offer business invoicing with net-15 or net-30 terms for contractor accounts.
