Many customers search for dumpster rental Asheville prices before booking, and we keep our rates among the most affordable for cheap dumpster rental Asheville needs.

Dumpster Rental Prices in Asheville

Here are our starting prices for every size we rent in Asheville and across Buncombe County. Each price includes delivery, pickup, a full 7 days of rental and 1 ton of debris disposal — no separate drop-off or haul-away fees added later.

SizeStarting PriceWhat’s Included
10 Yard$245Delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental, 1 ton of disposal

20 Yard$400Delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental, 1 ton of disposal
30 Yard$495Delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental, 1 ton of disposal
40 Yard$600Delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental, 1 ton of disposal

Need the dumpster a little longer? Extra days are just $10 a day — call before your pickup day and we will extend the rental. If your load goes over the included ton, weight overage is $55 per ton over. Heavy material like shingles, dirt and concrete reaches that limit faster than household junk, so mention it when you book and we will help you size for weight, not just space.

For a typical Asheville homeowner, a full week with a dumpster runs about $350–$450 all-in — a mid-size container for a garage cleanout, a kitchen tear-out or a pre-move purge, delivered and picked up. Whether the house is in West Asheville, Montford, Arden or Fletcher, the math works the same way: pick your size from the table above and that starting price is the number to plan around.

And there are no hidden fees tucked into these prices. Delivery, pickup and the first ton of disposal are already in the number you see. The only things that can add to it are the two flat rates above — extra days and extra weight — and we quote both up front, before the container ever leaves the yard.

One last thing worth knowing when you compare quotes around town: the cheapest quote is not always the best value. A reliable local crew helps you pick the right size the first time, gives you a clear delivery window, and sets the container carefully so your driveway comes out of it unmarked. That beats a bargain rental that guesses wrong and leaves you paying for a second delivery.

What Drives the Price

  • Container size — 10 through 40-yard containers cost progressively more, though sizing correctly the first time is usually cheaper than under-ordering.
  • Debris weight — every rental includes 1 ton of disposal; dense material (concrete, brick, dirt, shingles) is the most common reason a load exceeds it.
  • Rental period — keeping a container past the included 7 days adds $10 per extra day.
  • Delivery location and access — distance and difficult terrain can affect cost.
  • Permits — street/right-of-way placement can add a permit cost on top of rental.

Rental Price vs. Buncombe County Tipping Fees

These are two separate things. Your rental price covers delivery, pickup, and disposal handled on your behalf. Buncombe County’s own landfill and transfer station tipping fees apply only to people hauling material there themselves — not to rental customers. If you have questions about how disposal is handled for your project, call us at (828) 220-3068 and we’ll walk you through it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a dumpster rental cost in Asheville?

It depends on the size. Rentals start at $245 for a 10-yard, $300 for a 15-yard, $400 for a 20-yard, $495 for a 30-yard and $600 for a 40-yard. Every starting price includes delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental and 1 ton of disposal, and most homeowner cleanouts around Asheville and Buncombe County run about $350–$450 all-in for the week.

Does the price include delivery and pickup?

Yes. Delivery, pickup, 7 days of rental and 1 ton of debris disposal are all included in the starting price. The only possible extras are extra days at $10 a day and weight over the included ton at $55 per ton.

What can raise the price of a dumpster rental?

Going over the included 1 ton of disposal ($55 per ton over), keeping the dumpster past the included 7 days ($10 per extra day), and heavy materials like concrete, dirt or shingles, which reach the weight limit faster than household junk. Difficult delivery access (steep driveways, tight streets) can also affect the final cost.

Is there a cheaper option than a full-size roll-off?

Yes. The 10-yard and 15-yard dumpsters start at $245 and $300 and handle smaller cleanouts and single-room renovations well, so you do not have to pay for a 20-yard or larger container you may not fill.
