If you're looking to rent a dumpster in Jefferson County, TN, you've probably got one main question on your mind: "How much is this going to cost me?" It's a fair question, and it's one we at Dandy Ridge Dumpsters believe you should get a straight answer to. We're a locally owned company right here in Dandridge, run by Jason Martin, and we serve all of Jefferson County and the towns around Douglas Lake, including Jefferson City, Morristown, White Pine, New Market, Sevierville, Newport, Kodak, and even parts of Knoxville. We're all about clear, upfront pricing, so let's break down what you can expect when you rent a roll-off dumpster from us. (Still picking between sizes? Our size guide covers that side of it.)
Our flat-rate dumpster prices
One thing you'll notice right away about Dandy Ridge Dumpsters is that we post our prices out in the open. You won't find us making you call for a quote just to get a ballpark figure. We believe in being upfront from the start. Here's what our standard dumpster rentals go for:
- 15-yard dumpster: $450 for 7 days. We keep one 15-yard box, so it's first come, first served. Good for smaller cleanouts or a bathroom remodel when it's available.
- 20-yard dumpster:
- $375 for 3 days. Good if you have a quick project and know you can get it done fast.
- $475 for 7 days. Our most popular option for bigger home cleanouts, construction debris, or landscaping projects.
- $649 monthly. If you've got an ongoing project, this option gives you a dumpster for a whole month. Swap-outs, where we trade your full box for an empty one, are $250 each, and the monthly plan includes at least one.
These prices are your starting point, and they cover a lot, which we'll get into next.
What's included in your rental
When you rent a dumpster from Dandy Ridge Dumpsters, you're not just getting the box itself. Our prices are all-inclusive for the standard rental period. Every rental includes:
- Delivery: We bring the dumpster right to your job site or driveway. We'll put it where you want it, and we make sure not to tear up your yard getting it there. If you've got a new driveway or you just want extra protection, ask about our rolliskates, pads that spread the box's weight so it's easy on the surface.
- Pickup: Once you're done, we come back and haul it away. No fuss, no waiting around.
- Disposal: The cost of taking your junk to the landfill is covered.
- 1 ton (2,000 lbs) of weight: Every rental includes up to 1 ton of weight. Most household cleanouts and general debris jobs fit within this limit.
We pride ourselves on flat, upfront pricing. What you see is what you get. There are no hidden fees with Dandy Ridge Dumpsters, so you can budget properly for your project, whether you're in Dandridge, Jefferson City, or Morristown.
What can add to the cost
While we keep our pricing as straightforward as possible, there are a few things that can increase your total. We want you to know about these upfront so there are no surprises.
Going over weight
The biggest factor that can drive up your dumpster rental cost is going over the included 1 ton of weight. Some materials are much heavier than others. We don't take concrete, dirt, brick, or asphalt at all, since they overload the truck. But a heavy allowed load like a big pile of roofing shingles can still push you over that first ton. We charge for extra weight based on the exact scale weight, never rounded up. Here's how that breaks down:
- $85 per ton for extra weight in Jefferson, Hamblen, or Cocke County.
- $125 per ton for extra weight farther out in areas like Sevierville, Knoxville, Kodak, or Seymour.
We'll tell you the exact weight once the dumpster is picked up, and any overage is charged from the scale ticket.
Extra rental days
Sometimes projects take a little longer than planned. If you need the dumpster for more days than your rental period (3 or 7 days), that's not a problem. Each additional day costs $50. Just let us know and we'll extend it.
Delivery farther out
Our base rental prices are consistent, but the cost for extra weight runs higher if your project is in a more distant town like Sevierville, Knoxville, Kodak, or Seymour. That covers the extra fuel and time it takes our trucks to get there and back. We're glad to serve a wide area around Douglas Lake, and we're upfront about how distance affects the price of a heavy load.
Why we post our prices out in the open
You might have noticed that a lot of other dumpster companies around here make you call for a quote. They want to get you on the phone before they tell you what it costs. At Dandy Ridge Dumpsters, we do things differently. We post our prices right here, plain as day.
Why? Because you're busy, and you shouldn't have to play phone tag just to find out what a dumpster costs. Our flat, upfront pricing means no hidden fees, no surprises, and no wasted time. We're a local business, and we treat our neighbors the way we'd want to be treated. When we say we'll be there, we're there, and when we tell you a price, that's the price. It's why so many roofing and demo crews around here run with us. They need the box dropped before the tear-off starts and swapped when it's full, not whenever somebody gets around to it.
Getting your exact price
The prices above give you a solid idea of what to expect for a dumpster rental in Jefferson County and the surrounding towns. If you want an exact price for your specific project, including any weight overage or extra days, just give us a call. We'll ask what kind of materials you're getting rid of, how long you think you'll need it, and your exact location, so you get the right dumpster at the right price.
