Will My 10 Yard General Debris Dumpster Have a Weight Limit?

General construction debris weight limit:1.0 ton included

Why This Matters:Most home renovations and roof replacements stay within this limit. Additional weight is just $150/ton if needed.

Have inert materials (concrete, dirt, brick)? You can mix a small amount with general debris in a 5-yard dumpster, but the weight can add up fast. If you have more than 1 cubic yard of inert material, we recommend ordering an Inert Material Dumpster to avoid overweight charges.

How Should I Prepare for Delivery?

Once you've ordered your 10 yard dumpster, follow these four simple steps for a seamless delivery:

1

Create Space

Clear 60 feet of space in your driveway or street. Move cars, equipment, and any obstacles. Don't forget: Unlock gates for our driver!

2

Check Overhead

We need 23-25 feet of vertical clearance. Trim low branches or choose a different spot.

3

No Need to Wait

You don't need to be present! We deliver all day and follow fuel-efficient routes.

4

Start Your Project

Load through the door or toss over the sides. Keep prohibited items out to avoid fees.

What Materials Our General Debris Dumpster Accept?

We accept a wide variety of materials in our general debris dumpsters, with some limitations. Here’s what you can and cannot dispose of in our roll-off containers.

Accepted Materials

  • Construction debris (wood, metal, stucco, tile, drywall, glass)
  • Yard waste
  • Office waste
  • Metal items
  • General non-hazardous waste
  • Household furniture, appliances, electronics (extra fees apply)

Not Allowed

  • No rebar over 3 inches protruding
  • No oversized pieces (must be under 3 feet)
  • Hazardous: Paint, chemicals, asbestos, batteries, medical waste
  • Flammable: Gasoline, oil, propane tanks, aerosol cans, fireworks
  • Special Items: Large tree stumps, asbestos, railroad ties
  • No overfilling the dumpster
  • Important: Inert materials (dirt, concrete, bricks, asphalt) are not allowed in general debris dumpsters.

Golden Rule for Inert Materials

Use a separate dumpster for concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt. Mixing inert materials with regular debris reclassifies the load as general debris, which is subject to strict weight limits (e.g., 1 ton for a 10-yard dumpster). Overweight charges will apply if the load exceeds the general debris weight limit. Our inert-material dumpsters have no weight limits, but mixing materials will cause extra charges.
