[Pricing Guide]

How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost?

Dumpster rental cost depends on container size (10-30 yards), weight limit (2 tons included on 10-20 yard, 3 tons on 25-30 yard), and rental length. Call ARS Dumpster Rentals at (847) 526-7643 for a quote — additional fees apply for overweight loads, overfilling, missed pickups, and late cancellations.

What Determines the Price

Three things drive your quote: the dumpster size (see our Dumpster Sizes page for the full 10-30 yard lineup), the included weight limit, and how long you keep it. Call (847) 526-7643 and Kristy will quote your exact project.

Fees to Know Before You Book

  • Overweight charge: billed per extra ton if you exceed the included weight limit
  • Overload fee: $150–$250 if the dumpster is loaded above the fill line, plus a per-day fee until it’s ready for pickup

  • Cancellation fee: $150 for cancellations within 24 hours of scheduled delivery
  • Disclosed specialty items: mattresses, box springs, and sleeper sofas are $100 each; tires are $25 each
  • Undisclosed items: up to $140 per item if a specialty item is found without being disclosed in advance

If you exceed the included weight limit (2 tons on 10-20 yard, 3 tons on 25-30 yard), an overweight charge applies per additional ton — we’ll let you know the specifics when you book.
