Best Uses

Who Rents a 10 Yard Dumpster

It’s the size we recommend for compact projects and heavy debris where a taller container isn’t necessary.

Call Now

Garage & Attic Cleanouts

Clearing years of storage out of a garage, attic, or basement without hauling multiple truckloads yourself.

Small Remodels

Bathroom tear-outs, closet conversions, or single-room renovation debris that doesn’t need a full-size bin.

Concrete & Heavy Debris

The low walls make this size easier to load with concrete, brick, and dirt from small driveway or patio jobs.

Yard & Landscaping Waste

Branches, brush, old mulch, and sod from a weekend landscaping project or storm cleanup.

Why is a 10 yard dumpster the best choice for concrete or dirt?

Concrete and dirt are dense materials that hit a dumpster’s weight limit long before it looks full, so a smaller, low-profile container like the 10 yard is often the most cost-effective choice — you’re paying for weight capacity, not empty space.

Do I need a permit for a 10 yard dumpster in Macon?

No permit is required if the dumpster stays entirely on your own driveway or private property. If it needs to sit on a public street or right-of-way, the City of Macon requires a temporary placement permit — we can help you arrange it.

10 Yard Dumpster Questions, Answered

A 10 yard dumpster in Macon typically runs $295 to $495 for a standard 7 to 10 day rental. Price depends on debris type and whether you stay within the included weight allowance, which is usually 1 to 2 tons.

A 10 yard dumpster typically measures about 14 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, and 3.5 feet tall, though exact external dimensions vary by manufacturer. Internal volume always holds 10 cubic yards of debris.

A 10 yard dumpster holds roughly 3 to 4 standard pickup truck loads, or about 50 to 70 33-gallon trash bags of debris.

Yes. The 10 yard’s low height makes it one of the easiest sizes to load with heavy material like concrete, brick, or dirt, and it’s often the recommended size for driveway or small demolition debris because of its weight-focused design.

No permit is needed if the dumpster stays on your own driveway or private property. If it needs to sit on a public street, the City of Macon requires a temporary placement permit.

Most 10 yard dumpster rentals include a weight allowance of 1 to 2 tons (2,000 to 4,000 pounds). Heavier debris like concrete can push the container to its weight limit well before the fill line, so overage is billed per ton.
