Dumpster rental pricing
How much is a roll-off in Boston? Flat-rate pricing covers your seven-day rental; delivery and pickup are included — no surprise fees to worry about when we drop the bin.
Flat-rate Pricing by Container Yardage
Every flat-rate roll-off rental in Boston is priced based on the container size you select—whether you need a 10-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard, or 40-yard bin. Our team will set the unit using driveway boards to protect your pavement; this ensures we handle your contractor jobsite pricing tiers with care. We track the weight limit for heavy loads like concrete, dirt, or c&d debris because total tonnage—not just the visual volume—dictates the correct lowboy tier for your project. Please review our local waste disposal regulations and tonnage rules to stay compliant across Suffolk and avoid any surprises during the final pickup.
Contractor accounts receive specific jobsite pricing tiers: we offer volume discounts and net-30 invoicing for regular hauls. Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental maintains two distinct lists—residential flat-rates and commercial tiers—so every job gets a clear quote. Our hooklift trucks swap the container and provide a scale ticket upon request.
What the flat rate covers
- + Delivery to your driveway or jobsite
- + Seven-day standard rental period
- + Final pickup and haul to a licensed facility

How Our Roll-off Pricing Compares Locally
Ranges below reflect typical Twin Cities projects in Boston — household cleanouts or light construction debris — priced to match national-chain rates for the same roll-off sizes. Recurring volume work moves onto commercial billing, so this sheet shows single-haul dumpster pricing.

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 concrete or dirt because the 2-ton weight limit caps the volume.
$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 basement cleanout, and it works for a roof tear-off of up to 30 squares when the shingles are bagged.
$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 since the unit holds the framing waste from a mid-size addition with the volume to handle everything.
$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 Container handles bulky commercial demolition or estate debris such as cabinetry and drywall while staying within weight limits.
$490 – $860
Flat-rate range
Delivery and Pickup Costs Included
Every quote lists the flat rate and 2-ton weight allowance; shingles, concrete, or hazardous waste trigger a separate line charge. Standard delivery includes placement on driveway boards and final pickup — bundled into the flat rate within Boston and Suffolk County. Same-day swap-outs and deliveries beyond this radius carry a transparent surcharge, quoted before dispatch. Residential cleanout pricing scenarios follow the same roll-off dumpster pricing structure, with no hidden fees.
Standard Seven-day Rental Period and Extension Fees
Your rental includes a seven-day window starting the morning we deliver the container. The full dumpster rental booking and delivery process explains how to hold the bin longer if needed, with daily extensions or multi-week options for phased projects. Extending past the initial hold period starts a fresh seven-day rental instead of adding daily fees. Call (617) 936-8109 to discuss long-term container needs.
Prohibited materials that trigger surcharges
Liquid paint, automotive fluids, tires, electronics, refrigerators, and hazardous materials are prohibited and trigger a refusal of pickup. Ask us at booking and we will route those items elsewhere.
Weight Overage Tonnage Charges per Ton
Every container has a published tonnage allowance to keep the math simple. We weigh every load at the scale on dump-out; this provides a verifiable scale ticket for heavy concrete, dirt, or asphalt shingles rather than relying on estimates. Contractors who move heavy debris often pair these loads with commercial recurring billing options to streamline their accounting. We bill any excess weight at a flat per-ton overage rate.
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.
