Renting a roll-off dumpster can make any home renovation, cleanout, or construction project far easier when you choose the right company. At Oaks Dumpster Rental, transparency is our standard. We want you to know exactly what’s included in your rental so you can avoid unnecessary costs and feel confident in your choice. To help, we’ve answered three of the most common questions customers should ask about dumpster rentals.
How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost?
When you begin to inquire about renting a roll-off dumpster, determining the price is a good place to start. The answer depends on several factors, including container size, rental duration, and disposal needs. Specific pricing is available on our dumpster booking page when you enter your zip code.
Some companies advertise low base rates but add surprise fees for delivery, pickup, or exceeding weight limits. At Oaks Dumpster Rental, we believe in straightforward pricing—no hidden fees or fine print. Our team will walk you through the full cost upfront so you can budget with confidence.
When comparing local dumpster rental options, always ask:
- Does the quoted price include delivery and pickup?: Our quoted price includes delivery and pickup!
- Are there weight limits, and what happens if I exceed them?: Weight limits are a huge factor, because overloading a dumpster is very dangerous. If a dumpster is too full, drivers may be unable to take the dumpster to the disposal site.
- Are there additional charges for specific items, such as mattresses, appliances, or electronics?: Check our complete list of prohibited items that cannot go into a dumpster to make sure your waste can be taken to a disposal site.
Asking these questions ensures you won’t be caught off guard when the bill arrives.
Does Dumpster Rental Include Disposal?
With Oaks Dumpster Rental, the price you pay covers not only the container itself but also the safe transportation and disposal of your debris at a licensed facility.
This is an important point to clarify with any company. Some providers may add additional disposal charges or have unclear policies about what’s included. We’re committed to keeping it clear with our customers.
The base price for renting a dumpster with Oaks includes delivery, pickup, and disposal for 1 ton of waste, along with a deposit to protect customers from overfill fees; however, we do charge additional fees for extra tonnage. If your disposal exceeds the agreed-upon tonnage, it will increase the price of the haul away. If it is less, you may be eligible to receive a refund for the deposit. We will always communicate this clearly with our customers, outlining pricing, tonnage, and refund policies.
What Can You Put in a Dumpster Rental?
It’s equally important to know what you can put in a dumpster rental. Most household and construction debris can go inside—things like furniture, flooring, drywall, and yard waste. However, hazardous materials such as paint, chemicals, propane tanks, and certain electronics are prohibited for safety and compliance reasons.
At Oaks Dumpster Rental, we provide clear guidance on what’s allowed and what requires special handling. We’ll also explain how to load the dumpster safely—keeping materials below the fill line and distributing weight evenly. That way, your rental stays safe, efficient, and compliant with disposal regulations.
