Dumpster rental pricing
How much does a roll-off rent for in Des Moines? We offer flat-rate pricing: your seven-day bin rental covers delivery, pickup, and hauling — no surprise fees after the truck arrives.
Flat-rate Pricing by Container Yardage
Every roll-off in Des Moines is billed as a flat rate based on whether you choose a 10, 20, 30, or 40-yard container. This base price includes the delivery, a seven-day rental period, and the final haul; we set these using our lowboy truck to protect your driveway boards. You should consult contractor jobsite pricing tiers if you handle heavy C&D debris, because the weight limit often forces you into smaller bins—meaning your tonnage caps out before the bin is full. Please review local waste disposal regulations and tonnage rules for Polk County before you start loading. Call (515) 994-8891.
Contractor accounts at Dumpster & Roll-Off Container Rental receive tiered pricing: we offer volume discounts and net-30 billing alongside standard residential rates. If you need a container swap-out or a specific hooklift haul, we provide a scale ticket for every load so that you can hold your site budget.

How Our Roll-off Pricing Compares Locally
Ranges below reflect typical Twin Cities projects in Des Moines — household cleanouts or light construction debris — priced at or below national-chain rates for the same roll-off sizes. Recurring volume work moves to commercial billing rather than single-haul dumpster rentals, keeping these rates straightforward for one-off jobs.
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 because the weight limit caps the volume for a heavy concrete or dirt load.
$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 large 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 or a multi-room remodel because it has the volume for the framing waste from a large project.
$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 commercial demolition or large estate cleanouts with bulky-but-light loads like cabinetry or drywall, as long as weight stays within limits.
$490 – $860
Flat-rate range
Delivery and Pickup Costs Included
Every quote lists the flat rate—including standard delivery, placement on wooden driveway boards, and final pickup within the Des Moines core and Polk County radius—along with the weight allowance and items triggering separate charges. Swap-outs, same-day deliveries, or extended hauls beyond the standard zone get a transparent line item; we quote these before dispatch. residential cleanout pricing scenarios follow the same bundled flat-rate approach as our roll-off dumpster rentals.
Standard Seven-day Rental Period and Extension Fees
Your rental includes a seven-day container window starting at delivery. The full dumpster rental booking and delivery process explains how we track your timeline. If you need more time, daily extensions keep the bin active without resetting your rate, while multi-week holds work for phased projects. Going beyond the extension window starts a fresh seven-day period instead of stacking daily fees.
Prohibited materials that trigger surcharges
Liquid paint, automotive fluids, tires, electronics, refrigerators, and hazardous materials are prohibited and trigger a surcharge or refusal. Ask at booking and we will route those items elsewhere.
Weight Overage Tonnage Charges per Ton
Each container has a published tonnage allowance. We weigh every load at the scale on dump-out to ensure accuracy; this means concrete, dirt, or asphalt shingles are billed at a flat per-ton overage rate based on your scale ticket. Rather than using estimates, we use hard data to bill you. Many contractors pair these heavy loads with commercial recurring billing options to move more debris efficiently.
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.
