Dumpster Rental Davenport Iowa-Frequently Asked Questions



Who rents and uses dumpsters in Davenport Iowa?  


One of the biggest misconceptions about dumpsters is that they’re only used by industrial factories and contractors.  In the Quad City area, dumpsters are often rented by homeowners doing a spring/fall clean out, cleaning an estate, or remodeling a bathroom.   Quad City business and contractors are also frequent users of 6, 10, 20, and 30 cubic yard roll off dumpsters on job sites or commercial locations.


What are dumpsters used for in davenport Iowa or the Quad City area?


The most common uses for roll off dumpsters in the Quad Cities are cleaning projects and construction.  The following are some examples of the uses of dumpsters:

  • Residential clean-outs for garages, basements, attics, etc
  • Residential spring/fall cleaning
  • House clean outs prior to sales
  • Removal of yard waste(requires a special dumpster)
  • Remodeling of kitchen, bathroom, etc
  • Roofing shingle tear-off
  • Commercial construction
  • Industrial locations
  • Residential siding and windows 



What Size Dumpster Should I Rent For My Davenport, Ia Project?


Dumpsters come in several sizes and are measured in cubic yards.  6, 10, 20, and 30 cubic yard dumpsters are available in the Quad Cities and they range from 10 to 20 feet in length.  To give you some perspective on the capacity of these dumpsters, a level full pickup truck bed holds about two and a half cubic yards of waste.  So you can imagine a ten yard dumpster holding an amount of waste equal to 4 pick up truck loads, a 20 yard dumpster holding 8 pickup loads, etc.  

Estimation the amount of waste you have is not always easy but you will need to have a rough idea of what you intend to toss out and what size dumpster you might need.  Here’s a hint-  If you’re not certain exactly what size dumpster you need,. always order the larger size.  It’s far less expensive getting a larger dumpster up-front than having a smaller dumpster hauled several times.  And you can always find additional items around the house business that need to be tossed out(cracked plastic swimming pool, broken ladder, tattered old rocker recliner, etc).


How can I Compare Quotes For Dumpsters In Davenport, Iowa?


Most dumpster Quad Cities companies charge a fee for each time a dumpster will be emptied, a rental fee for dumpsters kept for an extended period of time, and landfill disposal fees for loads exceeding a certain limit.  Some waste companies charge additional surcharges and fees for administrative costs, environmental, fuel, etc.  It is important to understand these charges up-front to avoid costly surprises later.  It is also important to note that not all dumpster companies that advertise on the internet are local companies with trucks and dumpsters.  Many internet dumpster companies are merely “waste brokers” who operate out-of-town call centers and sub-contract dumpster deliveries to local companies after tacking on their commission.  Avoid the cost and frustration that comes with the use of an unnecessary middleman, use a local dumpster company!


What Steps Need To Be Taken If I Want To Rent A Dumpster In Davenport Iowa?


Dumpster rental in the Quad City area can be as easy as ordering a pizza if you contact a reliable local dumpster company.  Here are four easy steps that should simplify the dumpster rental process:

  1. Calculate the amount of waste material you will need to dispose of.  This is sometimes the most difficult step, but having a rough idea of the waste volume is required as you’ll need to choose a dumpster size.  Again, when in doubt, order the larger size to avoid costly multiple hauls on a smaller dumpster.

  1. Contact your local dumpster company to confirm pricing, delivery date, on-site  
location of dumpster, etc.  Be sure you understand the pricing to avoid costly future surprises.

  1. Take delivery of our dumpster.  You don’t have to be present if arrangements regarding payment and dumpster placement instructions have been made in advance.  You might want to take delivery of your dumpster a day before you plan to actually start loading it to avoid the double handling of waste that could occur if your project starts several hours prior to the dumpster arriving.

  1. You’ll need to inform the dumpster company when you’re finished with the dumpster so that they can schedule it to be removed from your project.  Forgetting this step could lead to additional rental charges, so don’t forget to call.

Bettendorf Iowa And Quad Cities Iowa Dumpster Rental 101

Renting a roll off dumpster in the Quad Cities can be as easy as ordering a pizza when you contact a reliable local dumpster rental company.  There is a common misconception that roll off dumpsters are for contractors and industrial factories only.  This isn’t the case as about half of the dumpsters we deliver in the Quad Cities are delivered to residents for general clean-ups, roofing, residential remodels etc.  If you live in Moline Illinois, Rock Island Illinois, Davenport Iowa, Bettendorf Iowa, or any other Quad Cities area location, you too can rent a roll off dumpster.  To ensure your dumpster rental process goes smoothly, you might want to consider the following:

* What dumpster size do you want to rent for your Quad Cities location?
* Where will you store your rented dumpster once it arrives at your home, business, job site?
  • When should you contact the dumpster company to place a dumpster rental order?
  • When should you have your dumpster delivered?
  • How can you safely load your dumpster?


What size dumpster should you rent for your Quad Cities project-Dumpsters come in all shapes and sizes

There are several factors that need to be considered when choosing the right size roll off dumpster for your project.  The most obvious consideration is choosing a dumpster large enough to dispose of your waste material while minimizing the number of loads you’ll be paying for.  In many cases, customers can dispose of all their waste with a single dumpster.  This necessitates estimating the volume of your waste and ordering a dumpster large enough to contain the material.  Dumpster sizes are stated in cubic yards so the choices of dumpsters are 6, 10, 20, 30 cubic yard sizes.  We strongly recommend that, unless you are certain your waste will fit in a particular size dumpster, you consider ordering a larger size roll off dumpster.  It is far less expensive to pay for the next larger size dumpster than to get a smaller dumpster hauled twice.  And if you rent a large dumpster and there’s space left over, you might just want to toss out that ripped couch, cracked swimming pool, bicycle with two flat tires, etc.

6 Cubic Yard Roll Off Dumpsters Quad Cities

The 6 cubic yard container is 5 feet high, 5 feet wide and 10 feet long and holds about two pickup truck loads of waste.  The 6 cubic yard dumpster is ideal for residential clean-outs as it fits in truck accessible parking spaces.  The 6 yard roll off container might be the right size for your bathroom remodel or for just tossing a few items of junk out.

10 Cubic Yard roll Off Container Quad Cities

The 10 yard roll off is 3 feet in height, 8 feet in width and 12 feet in length, making it ideal for most driveways, alleys, and parking lots in the Quad Cities.  The 10 yard dumpster is the dumpster of choice for heavy waste materials such as concrete, dirt, bricks.  This dumpster can hold up to 20 squares of roofing shingles.

20 Cubic Yard Dumpster Quad City, Il

At 4 feet in height, 8 feet in width, and 20 feet in length, the 20 yarder is a favorite of both homeowners and contractors.  This container can hold up to 40 squares of roofing shingles, and is the ideal size for building a new residential dwelling.

30 Yard Dumpster Quad City Illinois

The 30 yard dumpster is our largest size at 6 feet in height, 8 feet in width, and 20 feet in length.  The 30 yard dumpster is our most economical size dumpster when large quantities of debris need to be discarded.  The 30 yarder has a back door which swings open for easy loading of heavy debris.

Waste material weight might limit the size dumpster you can rent- Overloading dumpsters by weight or volume is a safety problem

If your project is expected to generate large quantities of concrete, dirt, shingles, etc, you may need to order a 10 yard dumpster and have it hauled a few times.  For example, if you are removing a concrete sidewalk and driveway and anticipate 20 yards of waste material, you’ll need to order a 10 yarder and have it hauled twice.  We can not haul large dumpsters overloaded, by weight or volume, with dense materials as we would be in violation of state and local highway weight laws.


On site dumpster placement needs to be considered-  Where do you want it?

Dumpsters are large metal objects that are delivered by even larger trucks that need plenty of space to maneuver.  Roll off dumpsters should be placed on a hard, level surface which is truck accessible and free from overhead obstructions such as wires and tree branches.  Parking lots, gravel areas, sturdy driveways, and even city streets(where ordinances allow) are all possible dumpster storage areas.  An experienced dumpster delivery driver can often times help determine a good spot for a dumpster if the customer is in doubt.


When to order your dumpster in the Quad Cities

It’s a good idea to order the dumpster a few days before you need it to ensure it’s scheduled for delivery.  During peak times of the year (April through November) you might want to reserve your dumpster a week in advance to ensure the right size dumpster is available when you need it.  And if all else fails, we MIGHT be able to deliver a dumpster on an emergency basis if scheduling permits.


Safety is important when renting a dumpster in the Quad Cities

Safety is important when working around rented equipment and dumpsters are no exception to this.  Here are a few safety tips:

  • Don’t climb on, or allow others to climb on, your rented dumpster.
  • Use common sense when loading your dumpster.
  • Always bend at the knees and not the back when lifting.
  • Wear gloves when loading debris into a dumpster.
  • Keep kids and pets away from the dumpster.


So if you’re doing a project at your Quad Cities home, business, or job site that requires a roll off dumpster, we’d like to hear from you (563) 332-2555

LeClaire, Iowa Dumpster Rental-  Everything You Need To Know About Dumpster Rental In LeClaire Iowa And More


Dumpster rental in LeClaire, Iowa can be quick and easy when you call a professional local dumpster rental company.  LeClaire residents, business owners, and contractors can rid their lives of clutter by renting a dumpster, and they can do so with one simple phone call to (563) 332-2555.  There are, however, a few things relating to dumpster rental that you might want to consider prior to making that call:  

  1. How big of roll off dumpster do you need?
  2. Where do you want the dumpster to be placed at your site?
  3.   When should you call the dumpster company?
  4.   What date do you want your roll off dumpster delivered?


What Size Roll Off Dumpster Are You Looking For?


Dumpsters come in several different sizes, so you’ll need to decide what size roll off dumpster you need prior placing your order.  When deciding on dumpster size the most obvious concern is ordering a dumpster large enough to contain all of your junk, or at least ordering a large enough dumpster to minimize the number of loads you’ll need to pay for.  Most likely, you’ll need to estimate the volume of waste that you need to dispose of and get a dumpster that is equal to, or greater than the volume of your waste.  Here’s a money saving hint:  When in doubt about the quantity of your waste, always order the larger sized dumpster.  It is far cheaper to pay for the next larger size dumpster that to have a smaller dumpster hauled several times.

Dumpsters come in 6, 10, 20, 30 cubic yard sizes and for those of you who can’t relate to a cubic yard, a level full pickup truck can hold two and a half cubic yards of waste.  So a 10 cubic yard dumpster is roughly the same volume as 4 pickup truck loads, etc, etc.  

It is also important to understand that the weight of your waste material can also effect or limit the size of dumpster you order.  Heavy dense waste materials can not be loaded into the larger 20 and 30 cubic yard roll off dumpsters as they would overload the truck.  The Department Of Transportation limits the weight of trucks on our streets and highways and, therefore, loading too much concrete, dirt, asphalt, roofing shingles, into a large dumpster creates a situation where the dumpster can not be hauled.  As a rule of thumb, concrete, asphalt, bricks, dirt should be loaded into 10 yard dumpsters only.  Roofing shingles can be loaded into 10 or 20 cubic yard dumpsters.  


Where Do You Want Your Dumpster To Sit Once The Delivery Truck Arrives


Dumpsters are large metal objects that are 8 feet in width and up to 20 feet in length.  Dumpsters need to be placed on a truck accessible, hard, level, surface which is free from overhead obstructions such as tree branches and electric wires.  Sturdy driveways,   parking lots, gravel areas, and even are all possible spots for dumpster placement.  The City of LeClaire might not allow the use of public streets for dumpster placement.  You might want to pick out a few spots for your dumpster in case your first choice doesn’t work once the truck arrives.


When To Contact The Dumpster Company To Rent Your Dumpster


Sometimes your dumpster can be delivered the same day it is ordered, but a few days notice is preferred.  And during peak dumpster times (April through November) you might want to reserve your dumpster a week in advance to ensure the right size dumpster is available when you need it.


When To Have Your Dumpster Delivered To Your LeClaire Project


If possible, we suggest you have your dumpster delivered to your LeClaire, Iowa project a day before you plan to start loading it.  Better to have the dumpster sitting empty for a half of a day than to double handle waste because you’ve started before your dumpster has arrived.
