Dumpster costs vary based on the location of where you are looking to rent, as well as the other factors mentioned above.

On the other hand, slow times of the year may get you a better deal on a container.

How to rent a dumpster in Portland in four easy steps

Follow the process listed below to ensure you have a smooth dumpster rental experience:

• PLAN AHEAD OF TIME

  Renting a dumpster is generally not a spur of the moment thing. Determine your project’s disposal needs at least two weeks ahead of time. Call at least a week in advance to book the dumpster, or two week in advance during busy months (spring, summer and fall). That way you can rest assured knowing the dumpster will be there when you need it.

• GET MULTIPLE QUOTES FROM PROS

  Be sure you’re getting the best price, dumpster and service for your project by getting quotes from multiple dumpster provideres. Our recommendation is for you to contact at least two or three.

• PREP FOR DROP-OFF

  Make sure the drop off location has easy access and no obstructions, such as cars, furniture, kid’s toys, or even fences (if applicable).

• FOLLOW THE DUMPSTER LOADING GUIDELINES

  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.

If you follow those 4 easy steps, you’ll find the experience to be much more smooth! If you need any assistance, feel free to call us for fast and friendly help!

What’s the Best Sized Dumpster to Use for My Project in Portland?

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.

There’s an ideal dumpster size to match any job from the smallest cleanup operation to the largest of home restorations. Most people tend to underestimate the amount of space and volume of the materials they’re disposing of, so it’s always better to be on the safe side when choosing a dumpster size. You most certainly won’t need to rent a super large dumpster if you’re just clearing out your garage or basement. So how can you decide on the right container size for your waste removal job? Here are some of the normal jobs that dumpster rentals are perfect for and the sizes that correspond effectively with them.

Dumpster Sizes for Common Projects

General Trash Removal or Remodeling Projects: Each person’s undertaking is unique, but in general a 20 cubic yard dumpster is adequate for a single room remodel or cleanup. A 20 cubic yard dumpster rental will take care of about 6 truckloads of waste, unless you have bigger objects like appliances you’re getting rid of.

Multi-Room Remodeling: When remodeling several rooms in your home or having contracting work performed a 30 cubic yard dumpster is normally an ideal option. This size will guarantee you don’t have to worry about the dumpster having to be unloaded and returned, but rather it would only take a single trip.

Storage Area Cleanups: It’s a good idea to clear out undesired items from your home’s storage areas to free up more space. The normal sized home storage area can be cleaned out using a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster. However, if you are disposing of large items or appliances, then a 20 cubic yard dumpster rental choice would be far better.

Full Home Cleanout Projects: For items 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 average house. For much larger homes, however, a 30 cubic yard dumpster would be a significantly better option since it would amount to about 9 regular truckloads of waste.

Landscaping Projects: Landscaping, yard or gardening work normally only produce a small amount of waste that will not take up a substantial amount of space in a dumpster. Because of this, these types of projects usually only require a 10-15 cubic yard dumpster unless it involves a large amount of tree branches.

Contracting Projects: For large renovation, home improvement or construction undertakings a big dumpster size, such as a 40 cubic yard option, would be perfect. Anytime you expect a large amount of debris to be produced by your job, having a larger sized dumpster is the best bet. Keep in mind, if you will be disposing of very heavy objects such as concrete or bricks, you’ll need a specially designed dumpster to handle that.

How Much Do Portland Dumpster Rentals Cost?

Generally,you can expect to pay around $200 to $1,000 for a roll-off dumpster rental in Portland. Dumpsters for rent in Portland can vary in price based on different things.

One of the biggest factors you need to think about is the size of the dumpster. You must plan which type of bin to get so you can avoid paying excessive rental fees. For small types of bins, you can expect to pay more or less $200. If you need a larger dumpster, you may spend close to $1000. Most rental companies include the travel costs into the final bill without you even knowing. Always double check the final costs with the company before handing over payment.

You may be asking yourself, how is the fee for my dumpster rental going to be decided? The primary way in which dumpster rental rates are determined is by the size/volume of the container. The more rubbish it can hold, the greater the rate on average. The length of time you intend to rent the dumpster for in Portland will also factor into how much it will cost in the end. Aside from those two points, the types of materials you’ll be throwing in the dumpster may also impact price. Very heavy waste items such as concrete or asphalt will need a special heavy-duty dumpster in order to handle such a load. For this reason, it’s important to take into consideration the types of materials you’ll be putting in the dumpster, as even if it’s returned only part of the way filled, it might still exceed its weight capacity in the end.

Below are some of the typical factors that might effect the price of renting a dumpster:

– How heavy the waste materials are.
– Waste that would be deemed hazardous materials.
– Possible landfill fees for large items such as mattresses or big appliances.
– Going above your dumpster’s weight limit.
– Potentially needing to obtain municipal permits for your area.
– Keeping the dumpster for longer than the original rental period.

Will I Require a Permit for Dumpster Rentals in Portland?

Sometimes a permit is required to put a dumpster outside of your property, depending on the local guidelines and regulations of your area in Portland. A permit may also be required if you are taking part in a construction, cleanup or renovation undertaking that requires the dumpster to be positioned in a location other than your driveway, such as the sidewalk or alongside the street. In general, a permit will not be needed as long as the dumpster is being inserted on your own property such as a driveway.

Avoiding a dumpster placement permit in Portland is relatively easy, as you can simply rent a dumpster that is sized perfectly to fit in your own driveway or any other location on your property. If you are a homeowner, then the vast majority of the time you will not need a permit as long as the dumpster is placed on your property. If you are unsure of the local specifications, you can always make contact with the appropriate Public Works Office in your municipality. Or, you can always go to their website and just fill out whichever form you need for the permit. Also, if you are part of a Homeowner’s Association, it would be a fine idea to check with your representatives to find out about any local rules you may need to adapt to.
