Our Simple To Understand Pricing Model

We believe that you should know what you are paying for when you lease a canister from Easy Dumpster Rental. And renting a dumpster from us has been a crowd-pleaser, just read our reviews. So, below we have outlined the 4 major factors that comprise our costs.

•  Landfill Costs: The hauling of materials to your local landfill, unfortunately, is not without a fee. There are roughly 4,000 landfills in America. And they all have set different prices. So landfill costs in Minneapolis may be higher or lower than in Richfield. These rates are more commonly known in the industry, as Tipping fees are based on the heaviness of the rolloff bin. Each can unit is weighed at the landfill by the hauler driving onto a scale. Easy Dumpster Rental can usually tell you the tipping fees or you can just call or visit the landfills website. Please note, we will never charge you extra for tipping fees unless you go over the allocated weight limit.
• Debris Type: The type of waste you intend on dumping will impact the price of the container’s rental costs. If you are dumping recyclables the cost will not be as expensive as getting rid of non-hazardous waste or disposing of hazardous or solid waste that can’t be recycled. Under no circumstances can Easy Dumpster Rental haul hazardous waste. It is prohibited by the EPA.
• Debris Weight: The weight of a container rolloff will be determined by two factors. One, the size of the dumpster you rent. Bins typically come in 5 sizes; 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yards. So, a 15-yard bin will have a lot less volume capacity that a 30-yard front load unit. Obviously, if you rent a larger dumpster the price will reflect that rather than if you chose a smaller bin. The second factor is the type of materials you will be filling the rolloff with. Heavier type of materials like rock will be cheaper than if you are carting away lawn clippings.  Also, we can help you select the right size canister by using are easy to use dumpster weight calculator. Some people tend to order a dumpster that is actually larger than what they actually need to be on the safe side. Let us assure you, we have the expertise to suggest exactly what size rolloff unit you will need. We want to help you save money so talk to our highly trained sales agents so you will get just what you need and nothing more.
• Rental Period: Easy Dumpster Rental has two rental periods, 7 or 14 days. However, if you need a bin for a longer period of time, no problem. Just let the office know so we can help you avoid late fees. You can keep the dumpster as long as you need to it.
