How Big Is a 10 Yard Dumpster?
Picture three pickup truck beds stacked side by side. That is the volume you are working with. The 10-yard dumpster dimensions come out to roughly 12 feet by 8 feet by 3.5 feet, which makes it the smallest of the 10 yard dumpster sizes most companies carry and the easiest to tuck against a curb or a garage pad. If you need the full lineup of dumpster sizes and dimensions before you decide, compare this one against the 20 yard dumpster rental, the 30 yard dumpster rental and the 40 yard dumpster rental. A roll-off truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind it to set the box down, so measure your driveway or street frontage in Saint George before delivery day. Homeowners doing a garage purge or a bathroom tear-out usually land here first, and it is also the box most home renovation porta potty customers pair with a toilet rental for a weekend project.
How Much Does It Cost To Rent a 10 Yard Dumpster?
Daily rates run 51 to 112 dollars, weekly rates run 426 to 778 dollars, and monthly rates run 91 to 500 dollars, based on 799 pricing points pulled from active rental listings. Weekend rates for short jobs land between 390 and 497 dollars. Delivery is usually billed separately, from 100 to 500 dollars depending on distance and timing, and some companies fold in a service fee for early pickup or an extra dump run.

| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|
| day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
Weight matters here too. A 10 yard box has a lower weight ceiling than the bigger sizes, so a load of shingles or concrete debris can hit the limit fast. Check dumpster weight limits and what cannot go in a dumpster before you fill it, since paint cans, tires and certain electronics usually get rejected on pickup.
Do I Need a Permit for a 10 Yard Dumpster in Saint George?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before you drop a box on the street. If the dumpster sits entirely on private property, on a driveway or in a yard, most jobs skip a permit, but street or curb placement is where cities get strict. Saint George Porta Pros checks this with you at booking, whether you rent 10 yard dumpster units for a driveway job or need street placement approved, so the box does not sit unpermitted on city pavement. Read more on dumpster permit requirements and general porta potty permit requirements if you are renting a toilet alongside the box, and see temporary fence cost if the job site also needs a perimeter.
Job site housekeeping rules apply too. OSHA 1926.25 requires scrap and debris to be cleared from work areas, and OSHA 1926.252 covers how waste materials get disposed of, including chutes and enclosures on active builds. A 10 yard box paired with clear daily cleanup keeps a small crew compliant without needing a bigger container. For sites running longer, look at construction site services for the fuller package, including toilets sized to OSHA 1926.51(c) crew counts.
Saint George sits near a handful of towns worth knowing if you are coordinating delivery from outside city limits. Santa Clara is 7.0 miles northwest, Washington is 7.8 miles northeast, and Ivins is 10.2 miles northwest, all close enough for same-day roll-off delivery. Hurricane, 18.1 miles east, and Dammeron Valley, 17.7 miles north, usually just need a bit more lead time. Check service areas or the porta potty rental in Saint George hub page for the full coverage map, and request delivery through request a quote.
How much debris fits in a 10 yard dumpster?
About three pickup truck loads, or roughly 10 cubic yards. That covers a single-room cleanout, a small deck teardown, or yard debris from a modest landscaping job. Heavier material like concrete fills the weight limit before the space limit, so check dumpster weight limits first.
How long can I keep a 10 yard dumpster rental?
Most rentals run day, week or month terms, priced separately in the table above. Day rentals suit a single cleanout day; monthly terms suit a slow renovation. Contact Saint George Porta Pros to match the term to your job timeline.
What size dumpster do I need for a garage cleanout?
A 10 yard dumpster handles most single-car garage cleanouts. If you are clearing furniture, appliances and construction scrap together, step up to the 20 yard dumpster rental instead.
Can I put a 10 yard dumpster on the street in Saint George?
Street and right-of-way placement needs confirming with the city before delivery. Driveway and private-property placement is simpler. Saint George Porta Pros will ask where the box is going before scheduling drop-off.
Does the price include delivery and pickup?
Usually not. Delivery runs 100 to 500 dollars depending on distance and scheduling, billed on top of the daily, weekly or monthly rate. Ask for a combined quote through request a quote so nothing surprises you at pickup.
