The Factors That Determine What We Charge For A Container Rental

Many potential clients are curious about how we come up with our rates. And rightly so. We feel that the public has a right to know what they are getting for their money. Since we have nothing to hide we will outline below how we come up with our costs. We hope this is helpful when determining what company you will choose for your dumpster rental needs. Our prices are determined by 4 basic factors. Landfill costs, Debris type, Debris weight, and Rental period. Below we will discuss in more detail these factors.

• Landfill Costs: Every city or county sets their own landfill costs or what landfills call their “Tipping” fees. So dropping off waste at a landfill in Holland may be higher or lower than in Jackson. After we get a sense of your project and come to an agreement on a container size, we can then factor the tipping fees that the landfill charges. Most landfills will post their tipping fees on their website. It typically is calculated by weight.
  Easy Dumpster Rental will never charge you more than the quoted price unless you exceed the weight limit. Or, if you attempt to dispose of hazardous waste. Hazardous waste is forbidden to be hauled by dumpster companies. This is regulated by the EPA and they have specially equipped trucks that handle the disposal of hazardous waste. This is to protect the landfill from potentially leaking waste into the environment. And for the good of the public as well.
• Debris Type: The type of debris that you are putting into the front load unit dumpster will impact the rental rate. Waste disposal companies are required by law to send certain waste to specific locations. Materials that can be recycled often are less expensive than nonhazardous waste or hazardous waste.
• Debris Weight: What you put into a dumpster can affect the price of the rental. If you rent a rolloff-bin unit and fill it only with yard waste such as branches or grass it is going to be a lot cheaper if you are putting concrete or shingles or heavier roofing materials.  Furthermore, the size of the canister unit you rent will also impact the price. Easy Dumpster Rental has 5 standard bin sizes, 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yard dumpsters. So, obviously, if you need a 20-yard container, it is going to have a lower price to begin with than a 40-yard front load dumpster.
  Please keep in mind, there are other in between dumpster sizes, but these are the most commonly ordered bins. Our sales team members are super experienced in getting you the right size rolloff-bin for the job at hand. Many people order a rolloff that is bigger than they need to play it safe, but you will not have to worry about this if you talk to our sales staff first. We will never try to oversell you. And by utilizing our dumpster weight calculator we can guarantee that you are getting the perfect size canister.
• Rental Period: Typically, lease periods are 7 or 14 days. So the longer you keep a dumpster the higher the cost. However, we are very flexible with our rental periods and you can keep the dumpster as long as you need it. We also realize that nothing ever goes according to plan so we will be with you until the job is completed.
