Dump trailer rental
Direct answer
You tow it, you fill it, you drive it to the transfer station and pay the gate fee yourself. Cheapest per load if you own a capable tow vehicle and the facility will take a household account. Above roughly 15 cubic yards a roll-off container is cheaper per yard than this and stays on site while you work.
When this beats a roll-off container
- You already own a truck rated to tow it loaded
- Small repeated loads over a long project
- A transfer station nearby that accepts walk-in residential loads
When it does not
Once your volume passes roughly 15 cubic yards, a container is cheaper per yard than any of these and it stays on your driveway while you work. None of these options takes hazardous material either, so paint, fuel, batteries and refrigerant appliances are a separate errand regardless of which you choose.
