How Big Is a 30 Yard Dumpster?
A 30 yard roll-off dumpster is one of the larger boxes we deliver in Saint George, sized for whole-house cleanouts, roof tear-offs, or a construction job generating steady debris. The 30 yard dumpster size runs long and low compared to smaller boxes, and exact 30 yard dumpster measurements vary by manufacturer, but the volume gives you enough room for framing lumber, drywall, and old fixtures without multiple hauls, and knowing the dumpster dimensions for a 30 yard box ahead of time helps you plan the drop spot. If you're not sure this is the right call, the dumpster sizes and dimensions page walks through how a 30 sits next to the 10 yard, 20 yard, and 40 yard options. Placement still needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the delivery truck, so a driveway or open lot works better than a tight side yard. Before you load anything, check what cannot go in a dumpster and review dumpster weight limits, since overfilling a box this size gets expensive fast.
What Does a 30 Yard Dumpster Rental Cost in Saint George?
If you're comparing 30 yard dumpster rental prices near me, pricing runs by duration below, and a longer rental should never cost less than a shorter one.
| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|
| day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
These bands cover the dumpster itself; delivery is billed separately and typically falls between $100 and $172 depending on how far out we're hauling. If your project sits closer to town, that fee trends lower; jobs out toward Hurricane, about 18.1 miles east, or Dammeron Valley, 17.7 miles north, run higher because of drive time.

Do I Need a Permit for a 30 Yard Dumpster in Saint George?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery day, especially if the dumpster will sit in a street or easement rather than a private driveway. We don't have a verified fee schedule or ordinance number to quote here, so don't take a number from anywhere but Saint George's permitting office directly. Our dumpster permit requirements page covers what questions to ask when you call. If you're renting for a jobsite that also needs temporary fence rental or a light tower rental, it's worth confirming all your placements in one pass rather than piecemeal.
Most residential customers renting for a driveway cleanout don't run into permit trouble, but commercial sites near sidewalks or streets should check first. Pair the dumpster with a portable toilet rental if crews will be on site for more than a day, and OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the toilet ratio you'll need once headcount climbs. Housekeeping requirements under OSHA 1926.25 also call for clearing scrap and debris from work areas, which is exactly what the dumpster is there to solve.
How long can I keep a 30 yard dumpster?
Rental length is flexible: day, week, and month rates are all listed above, and month-long rentals actually price lower per day than short weekly rentals in our data. Tell us your timeline and we'll match a duration instead of guessing. Request a quote through request a quote for a firm number.
What can't go in a 30 yard dumpster?
Certain items like tires, batteries, paint, and hazardous chemicals are excluded from standard loads. Check what cannot go in a dumpster before you start loading, since a banned item found at the landfill can trigger extra fees.
How much clearance does delivery need?
Roughly 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck is standard for a roll-off delivery. Narrow driveways or tight alleys in older Saint George neighborhoods sometimes need a site visit first to confirm the truck can maneuver safely.
Is a 30 yard too big for a home cleanout?
Not necessarily. Full-house cleanouts, deck demolitions, and roofing jobs often fill a 30 comfortably. If you're unsure, the dumpster sizes and dimensions page compares yardage against typical project types.
