A roll-off dumpster in Mobile runs $51 to $112 a day, $426 to $778 a week, or $500 to $500 a month depending on size, tonnage and how long you keep it. Most homeowners land near the weekly rate for a cleanout; contractors usually book monthly. Delivery adds $100 to $500 depending on distance and access.
Roll off dumpster rental prices depend on three things: size, rental length and what you are throwing away. A 10 yard box costs less than a 30 or 40 yard, and a week always costs more than a day, but less per day than a single-day rental does. That is normal pricing math, not a discount trick. If you are only comparing 10 yard dumpster rental prices near me against 20 yard dumpster rental prices near me, size is the bigger swing factor than location within Mobile.
Most residential cleanouts and small remodels use a 10 yard dumpster rental or a 20 yard dumpster rental. Bigger teardown or new-construction jobs move up to a 30 yard dumpster rental or a 40 yard dumpster rental. If you are not sure which size fits the pile, check dumpster sizes and dimensions before you call. This page sits under the main roll-off dumpster rental hub, which covers the full lineup.
The base rate covers the box, delivery, pickup and a set tonnage allowance. Go over on weight or toss a banned item and you will see it on the invoice. A roll-off truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the drop spot, so tight driveways in older Mobile neighborhoods sometimes mean the driver adjusts placement before setting the can down.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| dumpster | $51 - $112 | $426 - $778 | $500 - $500 |
| delivery fee | $100 - $500 | $100 - $150 | $120 - $420 |
| service fee | $100 - $300 | $100 - $220 | $100 - $300 |
Weekend rentals run $390 to $497 for the dumpster itself, a separate short-term rate rather than a discounted week. Some jobs also need a temporary fence rental around the drop zone, especially on a busy street, and OSHA 1926.25 requires job sites to keep debris cleared from work areas, which is part of why contractors budget for a box instead of letting scrap pile up. If demolition debris includes chutes or enclosed disposal setups, OSHA 1926.252 covers that too.
Placement in the public right of way, meaning the street or curb rather than your driveway, needs confirming with the city before delivery. We have not verified a specific Mobile ordinance number for this, so do not assume your job is exempt just because a neighbor's box sat curbside without one. Check dumpster permit requirements for what to ask the city when you call, and keep the box on private property if you are not sure yet.
This matters more in denser parts of town and less on a rural property near Theodore, 12.8 miles southwest, where there is usually room to park a dumpster well off the road. If your site also needs power for saws or lighting, a temporary power pole or light tower rental is worth pricing at the same time as the dumpster, since both often show up on the same construction site services quote.
Paint, chemicals, tires, batteries and certain electronics usually cannot go in a standard roll-off, and mixing them in risks extra fees or a refused pickup. Full detail is on what cannot go in a dumpster. If your crew is scraping old paint or applying coatings on the same job, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that specific work, so a handwashing station rental or portable sink rental belongs on the site plan, not just the dumpster.
Weight is the other limiter. Concrete, shingles and wet debris add up fast, and going over the included tonnage is one of the most common surprise charges. Review dumpster weight limits before you fill a 30 or 40 yard box with heavy material, and ask about the tonnage cap up front rather than after pickup.
Tell us the size, the job length and where the box needs to sit on the property, and we will quote delivery and pickup together. Distance from our yard affects the delivery fee some, which is one reason a job near Tillmans Corner, 10.4 miles southwest, prices a little differently than one near Prichard, 11.3 miles north, or Chickasaw, 11.5 miles north. If your project also needs a portable toilet on site, bundling it with the dumpster order is common; see porta potty rental in Mobile or the broader construction site services page for what a full site setup usually includes.
For jobs that also involve storage, a storage container rental or mobile office trailer rental often gets quoted alongside the dumpster on the same delivery run. Ready to book, or just want numbers in writing first? Request a quote and we will walk the job with you before anything ships.
Weekend dumpster rentals in Mobile run $390 to $497 for the unit, separate from daily or weekly rates. That fits a garage cleanout or small yard job. Add delivery, which can range from $125 to $540 for weekend service depending on distance and timing.
Most kitchen remodels fit a 10 or 20 yard box, depending on whether cabinets and flooring come out too. Check dumpster sizes and dimensions for footprint and height before booking, since driveway space matters as much as job size.
No. Delivery is billed separately from the dumpster rate, typically $100 to $500 for a single delivery depending on distance and site access. Monthly rentals sometimes see a higher delivery fee band since the truck may return more than once.
Rental length is flexible: day, week, weekend or month, and pricing scales with each tier. A weekly rate costs more than a day but less per day than renting daily repeatedly, so match the term to your actual job length.
Usually yes, but check what cannot go in a dumpster first. Paint, chemicals and certain electronics need separate disposal. Mixing banned items into a mixed-debris load is the most common reason a pickup gets delayed or a fee gets added.
