The 4 Components That Make Up Our Pricing Model

In the spirit of transparency and sound business practices, Easy Dumpster Rental feels that it is imperative that our customers should be aware of how we calculate our costs. We do not feel that we should be hiding anything from our customers and they have a right to know what they are getting for their hard-earned money. So with that said, please take a moment to read how we determine our prices. Basically, there are 4 parts to arriving at a price and they include Landfill costs, Debris type, Debris weight, and the length of the rental period.

• Landfill Costs: Tipping fees as there are more commonly know in the sanitation industry will vary from city to city or from county to county. This cost is generally used to offset the cost of opening, maintaining, and closing the landfill. Landfills are mandated by the EPA to be closely monitored for 30 years after the closure of the site. This 30 year period is essential to the health of the environment because water tables and air monitoring devices are being used to make sure that there are no pollutants contaminating the water we drink or the air we breathe.
• Debris Type: Expenses for the type of debris you drop off will incur different sets of costs. And that can vary widely depending on the city, county, or state. Within the landfill itself, you will find different prices depending on the materials. Cardboard could be twice as much as solid waste. It may be that some materials are difficult to dispose of and will command a higher cost. And if the landfill accepts recyclable materials they usually are less expensive to dispose of.
• Debris Weight: The size of dumpster you need will influence prices. Easy Dumpster Rental rents rolloffs in 4 different sizes. 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 yards. More than likely a 30-yard rolloff -container, having more volume, is going to be heavier than a 20-yard bin, so the 30-yard dumpster at the weigh station will obviously cost more.
• Rental Period: Easy Dumpster Rental typical offers 7 or 14-day rental periods. With over 15 years of experience under our belt, this gives some clear advantages.  First, you will get the exact size dumpster for your project. By using our dumpster weight calculator all the guesswork is done away with because we are able to tell you which size bin you will need for a particular project. Thus, you will end up paying less for a rolloff if you made the wrong assumption that you needed a larger dumpster for the job. We want you to save money.
  Secondly, we will work with you if you need more rental time. Our pricing is flexible, just give us a heads up before your rental period is coming to an end so we can work with you to keep your costs down. We want happy and satisfied customers so we will go the extra mile to accommodate you.

And we believe we are doing a pretty good job at keeping our client base excited about renting dumpsters from us. We have rented over 100,000 containers and literally thousands of customers return to us every year for their rolloff rental needs. So join the team and be part of the fastest-growing dumpster company in America.
