How Much is That Dumpster Rental Really Gonna Cost Ya? A Mid-South Guide
Alright, folks, let’s talk trash – literally! Whether you’re finally tackling that basement cleanout in Arlington, sprucing up your landscaping in Lakeland, remodeling your bathroom in Bartlett, or building a brand new shed in Somerville, chances are you’re gonna need a dumpster. And at Mid-South Dumpster Rentals, we’re all about being upfront and transparent with our pricing. No hidden fees, no surprises – just honest, neighborly service.
But let’s be real, the cost of a dumpster rental can vary. Think of it like buying a pickup truck – the price changes depending on the size, features, and how long you need it. Same goes for dumpsters!
Here’s the lowdown on what can affect your dumpster rental cost:
1. Dumpster Size: This is the Big Kahuna
Just like you wouldn’t haul a whole load of bricks in a compact car, you need the right size dumpster for your project. We’ve got a whole fleet of dumpsters, ranging from 10 to 40 cubic yards.
- 10-yard dumpster: Perfect for small-scale projects like cleaning out your garage in Lakeland or tackling a landscaping project in Arlington. Think of it as the pickup truck of the dumpster world.
- 15-yard dumpster: This is a popular choice for folks in Bartlett tackling a bathroom remodel or a small kitchen renovation. It can handle a decent amount of debris without taking up your whole driveway.
- 20-yard dumpster: Got a bigger project in mind? This size is ideal for most home renovations, like a kitchen overhaul in Somerville or a whole-house cleanout in Arlington.
- 30-yard dumpster: This is where things get serious. Perfect for major renovations, roofing projects, and larger construction jobs in Bartlett or Lakeland.
- 40-yard dumpster: This is the behemoth of the bunch, designed for major demolition and construction projects. If you’re gutting a whole house in Somerville or taking on a commercial project in Arlington, this is your go-to.

2. Rental Period: Time is Money
Just like renting a car, the longer you keep the dumpster, the more it’ll cost. We offer flexible rental periods to fit your project timeline, whether you need it for a weekend warrior project in Lakeland or a month-long renovation in Bartlett.
3. Debris Type: Not All Trash is Created Equal
Believe it or not, the type of debris you’re tossing can affect the cost. Heavy materials like concrete, roofing shingles, and dirt generally cost more to dispose of than lighter items like furniture and household junk. So, if you’re doing a demo in Arlington and have a lot of concrete, that might bump up the price a bit.
4. Location, Location, Location
While we proudly serve the whole Mid-South area and beyond, including Arlington, Lakeland, Bartlett, and Somerville, your location can play a small role in the final price. This is due to factors like local permit requirements and disposal fees, which can vary from town to town. Plus, if you’re further out and we have to haul the dumpster a long distance, a fuel charge might apply.
