A 10 yard dumpster rents for about 51 to 112 dollars a day or 426 to 778 dollars a week, and a 20 yard runs close behind that once you factor delivery. Most Bloomington jobs land in the day or week range, not the month rate, unless it's a slow remodel.
Roll off dumpster rental prices depend on size, how long you keep the box, and whether delivery gets bundled in. Bloomington Porta Pros prices dumpsters by the day, week, or month, and the dumpster rental cost generally scales with size rather than distance, since most job sites sit inside a normal service radius. A short weekend cleanup usually costs less than a job that holds the dumpster a full week, and a full month of construction debris costs more than either. Delivery is billed separately in most cases, and that fee alone can run from about 100 to 500 dollars for a single delivery, or less if it is folded into a weekly or monthly rate. If you are comparing a roll-off dumpster rental against a construction dumpster rental for an active build, ask whether the quote includes delivery, pickup, and a set number of pull days, because that is where prices actually diverge more than the yardage does.
A 10 yard box is the cheapest option on the lot, running 51 to 112 dollars a day or 426 to 778 dollars a week based on measured pricing. It suits garage cleanouts, small roofing tear-offs, and single-room renovations. See 10 yard dumpster rental for size specifics, or check dumpster sizes and dimensions if you're not sure a 10 yard box will hold your load. Homeowners doing a kitchen gut or a deck removal in Bloomington often start here before realizing they need the next size up. If your project produces shingles, drywall, or dense debris, weight matters more than volume, and it's worth reading dumpster weight limits before you book, since overloading a 10 yard box triggers extra charges that erase any savings from picking the smaller unit. A day rate makes sense for a single cleanup pass; a week rate makes sense if the debris keeps coming.
Twenty yard boxes carry a monthly range of 91 to 500 dollars depending on term and market, though most short jobs are billed by the day or week instead, following the same 51-to-112 daily and 426-to-778 weekly structure as the 10 yard size once site conditions are similar. It's the size most contractors reach for on a full renovation or a moderate demolition. Details live at 20 yard dumpster rental. Bloomington driveways and alleys vary in width, and a roll-off truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the drop point to place the box without repositioning, so measure your access before delivery day. If your project sits closer to Ellettsville, roughly 8.7 miles northwest of Bloomington, or Smithville-Sanders, about 8.1 miles south, the delivery window is still short enough that pricing rarely shifts outside the standard bands.
Size, rental length, and what goes in the box drive most of the swing in roll off dumpster rental costs. A 30 or 40 yard container costs more than a 10 or 20 yard box simply because it hauls more weight and needs a bigger truck to service it. Rental length matters too: a weekend rate is not the same math as a week rate, and a week is never cheaper than a day for the same box. Bloomington Porta Pros also separates delivery and service fees from the base rental, since a delivery fee alone can run 50 to 150 dollars for a weekly job or spike to 125 to 540 dollars for a rush weekend delivery. What you throw in matters. Check what cannot go in a dumpster before loading, because banned materials like tires, paint, and certain electronics can trigger a rejected pickup or an added disposal charge that has nothing to do with the size you rented.
Placement in the public right of way, meaning on the street rather than a private driveway, needs confirming with the City of Bloomington before delivery. Every city handles right-of-way placement differently, and this page cannot state a specific ordinance number or fee without checking current city code. If your dumpster sits fully on private property, a driveway or a yard, permitting is far less likely to apply, but confirm before you book. Bloomington Porta Pros can talk through placement options during scheduling. For a rundown of what's typically required, see dumpster permit requirements, and compare the full roll off dumpster rental options before locking in a size, since the wrong box on the wrong site can mean a second delivery fee. Larger projects sometimes pair a dumpster with other rentals: temporary fence rental around an active demo site, or a storage container rental for tools and materials, both of which face similar placement questions.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| dumpster (10-20 yd) | 51 - 112 | 426 - 778 | 91 - 500 |
| delivery fee | 100 - 500 | 50 - 150 | 120 - 420 |
| service fee | 100 - 300 | 30 - 220 | 100 - 300 |
A 10 yard dumpster runs 51 to 112 dollars per day based on measured local pricing. That's the base rental only; delivery is typically a separate charge. Day rates work best for quick, single-load cleanouts rather than ongoing projects. See porta potty rental per day for how daily pricing compares across other rental categories.
Per-day cost usually drops when you rent by the week, since a 10 or 20 yard box runs 426 to 778 dollars for a full week versus paying the daily rate seven times over. If your project spans several days of debris generation, a weekly rate almost always wins.
Most single-room renovations fit a 10 yard box, while whole-house projects usually need a 20 yard or larger. Weight matters as much as volume for heavy debris like tile or drywall. Compare options at dumpster sizes and dimensions or start with home renovation porta potty planning if the job also needs a restroom on site.
Not always. Delivery is often billed separately and can run from 100 dollars up to 500 dollars for a single trip, depending on timing and distance. Ask your provider whether delivery and pickup are bundled into the quoted rental price before you commit to a size or term.
Extensions are usually possible but should be arranged before the original term ends. Monthly rates for a dumpster run 91 to 500 dollars depending on size, and extending a day or week rental into a longer stay often costs less than starting over with a new delivery fee.
