10-Yard Dumpster Rental

The 10-yard is the container to pick when weight is the problem, not space. Concrete from a McKennan Park patio tear-out, dirt from a Prairie West landscaping dig, or a shingle tear-off in Country Club Estates fills a bigger box long before it fills the volume, and a heavy load in a 20-yard can push past what the truck is allowed to haul. A 10-yard keeps the weight in a container the truck can safely lift, which is why we point homeowners and roofers toward it for dense material even when it looks small.

Pick the 10-yard over a 15- or 20-yard when your debris is heavy per cubic foot. Concrete, brick, tile, dirt, sod, and asphalt belong here. If you're doing a whole-garage cleanout, a basement full of furniture, or a light remodel with drywall and framing, the extra volume of a larger container is a better fit and usually the better value — we'll tell you which way to go instead of steering you to the bigger box. The trade-off is straightforward: the 10-yard is short and easy to load by hand, but it fills fast with light, bulky junk, so mixing a couch and a mattress into a concrete load wastes the container.

Because the 10-yard has a small footprint, it works on narrow driveways in the tight-lot neighborhoods around All Saints, Pettigrew Heights, Hayward, Sherman, and Tuthill where a longer container won't sit without blocking the sidewalk. We set it on boards to protect your driveway surface, place it where you point, and confirm the price before it comes off the truck. If your project sits on a Sioux Falls street rather than a driveway, a right-of-way permit from the city may be required — ask when you call and we'll walk you through it.
