Questions
Before you rent
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Detroit?
Only if it goes on the street, sidewalk or a parking lane. Detroit requires a permit for that but does not publish the fee — ask the city or your hauler. A dumpster in your own driveway usually needs no city permit.
How much does a dumpster cost in Detroit?
Prices posted by local haulers in our directory: 10-yard: $295–$395; 20-yard: $300–$495; 30-yard: $425–$468. Your price depends on size, rental length, weight and placement. Request quotes to see real prices for your dates.
What size dumpster do I need?
A 10-yard holds about 3 pickup loads (small bathroom, one-room cleanout). A 20-yard holds about 6–8 (kitchen remodel, garage cleanout) and is the most common choice. A 30- or 40-yard is for whole-home cleanouts, big remodels and demolition. Not sure? Pick "Not sure" on the form and haulers will help.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. You send one request, up to five local haulers contact you with prices, and you decide whether to hire anyone.
