Renting A Dumpster In The Rock Island Illinois-How To Order A Roll Off Dumpster In Rock Island, Il


Renting a dumpster in Rock Island Illinois are can be as easy as ordering a pizza.  But first you’ll need to consider the following issues:

  • Dumpster Speak-Terminology used by your dumpster company
  • Selecting the right dumpster company
  • Dumpster sizes-Plenty of options here
  • Where the dumpster will be placed once it arrives at your site
  • When to have dumpster delivered
  • Safe loading of your dumpster
  • Regulations and ordinances regarding dumpsters and proper disposal of waste

Dumpster Speak- How to communicate with garbagemen


“Dumpsters” are referred to by many names.  Your local waste management company they might call them dumpsters, containers, roll offs, skips, bins, 20 yarders, etc.  Not that complicated once you understand that they all do the same thing-They all hold garbage and waste materials while on your site and when being hauled to the dump.  Just let the dumpster company know that you want dumpster the type of dumpster that is hauled away after it is full and not the type that is dumped into a truck every week and left on site.  If you refer to the dumpster you need as a “roll off dumpster”, you’ll be talking in a language that the folks at the dumpster company can understand and this will eliminate any confusion..

A Reliable Local Dumpster Company Is What You’re Looking For


Choosing a reliable local dumpster company up front is paramount as it eliminates problems that can arise throughout your project.  Unfortunately, most of the dumpster companies that pop up when you do an internet search are actually “waste brokers”.  These waste brokers pretend to be local dumpster companies, but actually don’t have trucks or dumpsters and are located out of the area.  They will typically take your order and call a local dumpster company to do the actual work.. Problems arise with communication and coordination when dealing with these out of town brokers and you’ll typically pay more because of the extra cost of an unnecessary middleman.  So don’t call those 1800 numbers, call a local company and save money and time.


Dumpsters Come In Several Sizes-Which One I Right For Your Job?


There are several dumpster sizes to choose from so you’ll need to decide which one is right for your Quad City project.  The amount of waste that you’ll be tossing away, the weight of the waste, and the on-site location or space available will be factors in determining the dumpster size for your job. 


How Much Waste Will You Have?


Dumpster sizes available in the Rock Island, Il area are 6, 10, 20, 30 cubic yard sizes. Dumpster customers are charged for every time the dumpster is hauled away and emptied at the dump so whenever possible,you’ll want to order a dumpster that will fit all of your waste material or at least a dumpster that will minimize the number of times you need to fill the dumpster.  The actual dimensions of each dumpster size will be covered later, but here’s a hint about choosing a dumpster size- When in doubt about the amount of waste you’ll need to dispose of, paying a little more could save you in the long-run.  In other words, you might want to order the larger size dumpster and not wind up paying to have a smaller dumpster hauled several times.


Heavier Wastes Must Be Disposed Of In Smaller Dumpsters


Heavy materials such as roofing shingles, dirt, concrete, brick, cinder block can NOT be deposited in the larger dumpsters because of safety concerns and Department Of Transportation regulations limiting the weight of garbage trucks on public streets and highways. Heavy materials need to be disposed of and transported in smaller quantities.  For example, if you are tearing off old shingles from a roof you’ll need to order a 10 or 20 yard container.  And the largest dumpster that can be used for the disposal of dirt, concrete, cinder block, asphalt, bricks, etc is a 10 yard dumpster.


Dumpsters Can Take Up A lot Of Space


Some of the larger dumpsters are eight feet in width and 20 feet in length and just will not fit in tight alleys or smaller driveways with limited access for a large dumpster delivery truck to maneuver.  In some cases. a smaller dumpster, with a length of 10 or 12 feet can possibly be placed where the larger dumpsters can’t fit.  The point is that, even if you have a large volume of waste, you may have to rent a smaller dumpster if you are limited on space.

Specific Dumpster Sizes And Information


6 Yard Dumpster

The 6 yard dumpster can actually fit in a truck accessible parking space as it is our smallest dumpster.  6 feet in width, 5 feet in height and 10 feet in length, the 6 yard roll off dumpster is ideal for small clean-outs and bathroom remodels.  The 6 yard dumpster can hold about two pickup truck loads of waste


10 Yard Dumpster Rock Island, Illinois

Save yourself 4 trips to the dump on your next clean up, remodel, or other project by renting this dumpster for your Quad Cities project.  The 10 yard dumpster is 8 feet in length, 3 feet in height and 12 feet in length.  This dumpster will contain up to 20 squares of roofing shingles and is ideal for handling heavier wastes such as concrete, asphalt, etc.  


20 Yard Dumpster Moline, Illinois

Where Will You Put Your Rented Dumpster In Bettendorf, Ia?

You will most likely want the dumpster located in a spot that makes it easy for you to load, but you’ll also need to consider the following.  Dumpsters can be up to 8 feet in width and up to 20 feet in length and are delivered by trucks that are 35 feet long.  You’ll need to find a space for the dumpster which is hard, level, truck accessible, and free from overhead obstructions such as wires and tree branches.  Sturdy driveways, parking lots, gravel areas, public streets(where ordinances allow) are all possible locations for your rented dumpster.

And before we leave the topic of dumpster placement, let me mention an obvious point-  Dumpster companies need a correct address to deliver their roll offs, so be sure to have the correct address when contacting your local dumpster company.


Deciding When To Have Your Dumpster Delivered In The Quad City area

You might want to have your dumpster delivered a day before you plan to actually start filling it to avoid having to double handle your waste materials.  Sometimes, dumpster companies can deliver dumpsters the same day that they’re ordered, but ordering a dumpster a few days in advance is best.  During peak dumpster usage times of the year(April through November) you may want to reserve your dumpster a week in advance to ensure the right size dumpster will be available for your needs.



Always Put Safety First When Loading Your Dumpster In Quad Cities

Use good safety practices when working around dumpsters.  The following are a few safety issues/items you should adhere to:

*Overloaded dumpsters present a safety problem as, even though they’re covered with a tarp, materials can fall off the dumpster when being loaded on truck or being transported to landfill.  Please refrain from loading your dumpster above the sides.
*Don’t use your dumpster to dispose of flammable materials, gas cylinders, liquids, asbestos, etc.
*Don’t allow others to play on, around, or climb on  your dumpster.
*Don’t climb on dumpster.
*Common sense and caution make for a good combination when working around any equipment.
