Easy - this is a very common problem.
Your hauler (for a small fee, typically $5-$10/month) will supply you with a lock for the Side doors of the container. The Hauler will also install a gravity lock so that it automatically unlocks when the Dumpster is turned upside down. Your hauler should also be able to supply you with "Private Property" sticker with warnings that illegal dumpers will be prosecuted.

How much do Dumpsters Cost or Dumpster Pricing
That depends!!! The Customer Service people at DumpsterSource.com can help you rent the most Cost Effective Roll-off Dumpster Container.
Let's explain what is involved in Dumpster Pricing.
Rates for Dumpster vary greatly across the US and even across local Counties. There are two big pieces: landfill costs and Local Municipalities. Landfills charge by the Ton or in some cases by the Yard. The "tipping" charge (to tip the contents of a Dumpster into the landfill) varies greatly from one part of the country to another. But, did you know that the type of Waste also makes a huge difference? Most Dumpster Rental companies do not want you to know this "dirty little secret" (pun intended). Let us help you get the lowest possible cost by proving you the right type of Dumpster Rental at DumpsterSource.com. Municipalities also come into play. Some have special fees and taxes associated with Trash Disposal. Others have "Franchised" their area creating a fixed price with a monopoly hauler. Yet others compound this problem with the need for Special Permits to rent or place a Dumpster Rental. It can be very confusing so call 1-888-423-8677 for help with Dumpster Rentals.
Of course the Dumpster Rental Size also affects Pricing. Larger dumpsters cost more because they hold more tonnage. Tonnage is a large part of a Dumpster Rental. You pay for the amount of tons or yards you dump (or tip). Larger Dumpster Rentals also require a little more fuel to truck around. Fuel Service fees are now common practice across the US. We at DumpsterSource.com negotiate the best possible rates for Fuel Fees and Environmental Fees.
How Does DumpsterSource Price Rolloff Dumpster Rentals?
DumpsterSource prices Dumpster Roll-off Container Rentals several ways. Typically we charge an "all-in" flat rate for each container type. This avoids hidden charges or fees that the typical homeowner may not thinkto ask about. Call us and we'll talk it all through with you! Or visit out site at www.DumpsterSource.com to check for pricing and schedule online.
Let's get back to the biggest driver of Dumpster Rental Pricing: Tonnage. Most Dumpster Rentals will have a Tonnage Allowance (see DumpsterSource.com for details). We set the Tonnage allowance based on tons of experience (get it?). The typical job will not exceed the tonnage allowances, but, sometimes they do. Let's look at the process to understand what happens: every Dumpster crosses an Official Scale (State Monitored) on their way to the landfill or transfer station. If your Dumpster Rental weighs more than your max allowance then extra tonnage charges will apply. Let me give you an example. Take our most popular Container the 30 yard Dumpster. Lets say the "All in" price is $450 with a 4 Ton Allowance. And in this case extra tons are $50 a ton. If your Dumpster crosses the Scales at 3.987 tons then your Price remains $450, however, if it crosses the Scales at 5.1 tons then you owe 5.1-4=1.1 ton at $50/ton or $55 additional to cover the overage. Confusing? Not too hard to figure out. What is more important is that you get the right container in the first place! Depending on your job type and the type of debris you have DumpsterSource.com will help you select the right type of container for your job. Ask us about Specialty Containers such as Shrub and Brush or Metal Recycling or Concrete. If you have special waste type like Concrete you need a Specialty Container. We will help you choose the right Dumpster Rental - 1-888-423-8677 or dumpsters@iws.com.

Dumpster Sizes - How do I pick?
How much can your Friend's Pick-up truck hold?
Picking the right size Dumpster takes experience and at DumpsterSource.com know how to help! Read through the basic Dumpster Rental Sizes below to get a good idea. Also look at the "More Info" button under all of our Dumpster Rentals for additional information. Lastly, call us at 1-888-423-8677 or use Livehelper to "Chat".
Back to the Pickup truck! Should you rent a Dumpster or make a few runs with the truck? We'll help you decide by giving you rough conversions on how big each dumpster really is:::
The 10 Yard Dumpster Rental
How big is this dumpster?
10/12 Yard - 4' high, 8' wide, and 10'-12' long
* Actual dumpster sizes vary per market area.
How much can this dumpster hold?
10-12 Cubic Yards of material
The average pickup-truck holds approximately 2 yards of material so this container holds approximately 5 to 6 pick-up truck loads.
A 10 yard dumpster could be used for small basement or garage clean outs; removing a 250 sq. ft deck; trashing 1500 sq. ft. of single layer roof shingles; minor yard debris cleanup, or a small interior house remodeling jobs.
Getting bigger - The 20 Yard Dumpster Rental
How big is this dumpster?
20 Yard - 4.5' high, 8' wide, and 22' long
* Actual dumpster sizes vary per market area.
How much can this dumpster hold?
20 Cubic Yards of material
The average pickup-truck holds approximately 2 yards of material so this container holds approximately 10 pick-up truck loads. You're saving already on the gas bill!
The 20 yard dumpster can handle a large basement, attic, or garage cleanup; flooring and carpet disposal for a mid to large house; 300 to 400 square feet of deck removal; or 2500 to 3000 sq. ft. of single layer roofing shingles removal.
Now we're talking! The 30 Yard Dumpster
How big is this dumpster?
30 Yard - 6' high, 8' wide, and 22' long
* Actual dumpster sizes vary per market area.
How much can this dumpster hold?
30 Cubic Yards of material
The average pickup-truck holds approximately 2 yards of material so this container holds approximately 15 pick-up truck loads. Yup, 15 trips beating up your friend's pick-up, cutting your hands, having to make a few stops to get rid of some built up coffee... I'm thinking Dumpster Rental. :-)
The 30 yard dumpster is the main workhorse for major home addition; construction of new homes; demolition of a garage, a major kitchen remodel; or entire house window or siding replacement for a small to medium size home. These Containers are easier to work with than their big sister.
Big Bad 40 Yard Dumpster
How big is this dumpster?
40 Yard - 8' high, 8' wide, and 22' long
* Actual dumpster sizes vary per market area.
How much can this dumpster hold?
40 Cubic Yards of material
The average pickup-truck holds approximately 2 yards of material so this container holds approximately 20 pick-up truck loads. Can you really afford to run back and forth 20 times?!?!
40 yarders are a little more difficult to use because of their height. If you're equipped for it then they work well for window or siding replacement for a large home; commercial roof tear offs; commercial clean outs; new construction or major additions; and large amount of trash, paper, or cardboard. Typically these big bad containers are best for the Pros who use them all the time and have the right set ups. But, who knows! Call us if you're not sure.
