A 10 yard dumpster measures about 12 feet long, 8 feet wide and 3.5 feet tall, and it holds roughly 3 to 4 pickup truck loads of debris. Providence Porta Pros rents them by the day, week or month, with day rates starting at $51. It suits small cleanouts and short jobs better than bigger bins.
The 10-yard dumpster dimensions run close to 12 by 8 by 3.5 feet, which is small enough to fit a driveway but roomy enough for a garage cleanout or a single bathroom demo. Providence Porta Pros positions it against dumpster sizes and dimensions charts so you can compare it against a 20 yard dumpster rental or a 30 yard dumpster rental before you commit. Delivery still needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, same as any roll-off size, so measure your driveway or curb space in Providence before scheduling. If your property line runs tight to the street, check dumpster permit requirements first. Not sure this is the right box? Our porta john rental crews often deliver both a dumpster and a portable toilet rental to the same renovation site, and pairing the two on one invoice usually saves a trip.
Yard waste, drywall, old flooring, small furniture and general construction debris all work fine, but certain materials never belong in any bin regardless of size. Check what cannot go in a dumpster before loading, since paint cans, tires and electronics usually get rejected at the transfer station. Weight matters more than volume with a 10 cubic yard dumpster because tipping fees scale with tonnage, not just fill line, so review dumpster weight limits if you're loading shingles, concrete or dirt. For active job sites in Providence, a 10 yard trash dumpster next to a construction dumpster rental setup keeps debris off walking paths, which supports the housekeeping standard under OSHA 1926.25 requiring scrap and debris cleared from work areas. Waste chutes feeding a dumpster on multi-story jobs fall under OSHA 1926.252, worth a look if you're demoing above ground level.
Pricing depends on how long you keep it and how much you throw away. Here's what a 10 yard roll off dumpster runs against other durations:
| Duration | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Day | $51 to $112 |
| Week | $426 to $778 |
| Month | $91 to $500 |
A day rate suits a weekend cleanout; a week or month makes sense for an ongoing renovation. Full pricing breakdowns, including delivery fees, live on dumpster rental cost. Providence homeowners tackling a kitchen gut or attic clear-out often start with our porta potty rental cost page too, since combining a dumpster with a standard porta potty rental is common on renovation sites without working plumbing. If your project runs longer than expected, monthly porta potty rental terms mirror the dumpster's monthly rate structure.
Most rentals run day, week or month, and Providence Porta Pros bills by whichever term fits your project. A weekend cleanout usually needs just a day or two; a full renovation might need the monthly rate. Ask about swap-outs if you fill it early, since a second haul-away keeps the job moving.
Placement on your own driveway typically needs no permit, but curb or street placement in Providence needs confirming with the city before delivery. Rules vary by exact location. See dumpster permit requirements for what to ask when you call.
A 10 yard dumpster sits at roughly 12 by 8 by 3.5 feet, about half the depth of a 20 yard dumpster rental. It suits single-room projects; larger cleanouts or roofing jobs usually need the bigger bin. Compare both on dumpster sizes and dimensions.
Yes. Providence Porta Pros delivers both together often, especially for whole-home renovations where plumbing gets shut off. Check home renovation porta potty for details on pairing a unit with your dumpster order for the same job site.
It handles yard waste well, along with general debris, but heavy loads like dirt or concrete hit weight limits fast. Review dumpster weight limits before loading, since tipping fees apply once you exceed the included tonnage for your rental term.
