How to rent a dumpster in Portland in four easy steps

  Avoid the headaches later on and: Don’t over-fill the dumpster, avoid disposing of prohibited items (e.g., hazardous wastes), don’t mix trash in with clean loads (e.g., concrete only), and follow other guidelines given to you by the dumpster rental company.

Which Sized Dumpster Should I Rent for My Portland Project?

10 Yard Dumpster

10 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 4 pick-up trucks of waste material. These dumpsters are most often used for smaller projects such as garage/basement clean outs, small bathroom remodels, kitchen remodels, small roof replacements up to 1500 sq ft or a small deck removal up to 500 sq ft.

20 Yard Dumpster

20 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 8 pick-up trucks of waste material. They’re often used for projects like flooring or carpet removal for a large house, roof replacements up to 3,000 sq ft, deck removal up to 400 sq ft, or large garage/basement clean outs.

30 Yard Dumpster

30 yard roll off dumpsters hold about 12 pick up trucks of waste material. They are most often used for projects like new home constructions, large home additions, siding or window replacements for a small to medium sized house, or garage/basement demolition.

40 Yard Dumpster

40 yard roll off dumpsters hold approximately 16 pick up trucks of waste material. They’re often used for large projects like commercial clean outs, window replacement or siding for a large home, large home renovations, large construction projects, or large commercial roofing projects.

In order to make the ideal, most educated selection for your waste removal efforts it’s essential to have a general idea of the sizes available. However, it can be challenging to estimate the precise amount of waste that a particular job will produce. There are a range of various dumpster sizes that are perfect to match any waste removal needs for your tasks. Although it’s always a good idea to describe your project in depth when renting a dumpster so we can help you decide on a proper size, below are some good examples of common jobs and the average sized dumpster you’ll need to rent.

The following are the most frequent projects our customers require a dumpster for and the recommended sizes to rent:

Basic Remodeling or General Garbage Removal: In general, a 20 cubic yard dumpster is ideal for remodeling a single room in your house, or performing a basic cleanup. A 20 cubic yard dumpster rental will handle about 6 truckloads of waste, unless you have larger items like appliances you’re getting rid of.

Multi-Room Remodeling: If you have more than just one room you’re going to be working on, then it’s a good idea to upgrade to a 30 cubic yard dumpster size. This size will ensure you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but instead it would only take one trip.

Storage Area Cleanups: Sorting through unwanted items or debris from your storage areas is a great way to free up more space or room in your home. For the average home storage area, a simple 10 or 15 cubic yard dumpster is ideal. If you have sizeable items, such as appliances, you may want a 20 yarder just to be on the safe side.

Complete Home Cleanup Projects: For things such as furniture or large appliances that you’re cleaning out of your home, a 15-20 cubic yard dumpster would be perfect for the common house. For bigger homes, however, a 30 cubic yard dumpster would be a considerably better option since it would amount to around 9 regular truckloads of waste.

Yard Work or Landscaping: In general, yard work and landscaping waste materials won’t demand a huge amount of dumpster volume. Therefore, the typical yard project will only require a 10 to 15 cubic yard dumpster, unless you are preparing for disposing of a lot of tree branches or full shrubbery.

Construction Work: The ideal dumpster rental solution for contracting work or large scale projects would be the 40 cubic yard option. If you have a significant renovation project ahead of you, then you can bet they’ll be a great deal of waste materials to dispose of. Keep in mind, if you will be disposing of very heavy objects such as concrete or bricks, you’ll want a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

The weight of the waste materials you’re disposing of will mostly depend on the materials they’re made out of. If you are unsure or have questions, simply give our helpful staff a call at (844) 923-1888 and we’ll be happy to assist you.

Will I Need a Permit in Portland for a Dumpster Rental?

Whether or not you will need a dumpster permit is determined by the positioning of the dumpster and Portland’s local requirements for the use of public property. Dumpster permits are generally only required if you are placing your roll off container on certain areas outside your home. Places like sidewalks, streets and other public areas are the most frequent places that may require a permit. The specifications for placing a dumpster on public property vary between areas, but in general you will normally not need one for putting it on your own property.

There is a Public Works Department located in your local Portland municipality that is responsible for issuing a number of permits, including ones for setting dumpsters on public property. You can either visit the office in person and fill out the form there or they’ll often just have an electronic form on their website to fill out. Just fill out the appropriate form provided and submit it to the department. You can generally perform this either in person, over the phone or online. These applications should be approved within 24 business hours, so you won’t have to wait long and it shouldn’t hold up your job. Fees associated with dumpster rental permits will depend on the type of project and length of time the dumpster will occupy public property.
