Dumpster Rental in Philadelphia starts at $595 flat for a 10-yard roll-off, with no hidden tonnage or fuel add-ons stacked on later. Whether you are gutting a Fishtown rowhouse kitchen, clearing a Germantown estate, or running a construction site near The Navy Yard, one call gets a bin dropped on your schedule.
Dumpster Rental in Philadelphia is a roll-off container service that delivers a steel bin to your property, gives you set days to load debris, and hauls it to a licensed transfer station for one flat price.
Every service reflects the same meticulous attention to detail, whether it's a single job or a larger dumpster rental project across Philadelphia.
The 10-yard roll-off rents flat at $595 and holds roughly 4 pickup loads of debris. It suits a bathroom remodel, a small basement cleanout, or a load of heavy concrete and dirt, and its short footprint fits the narrow driveways common in South Philadelphia and Point Breeze. Because dense material tops out on weight before volume, the 10-yard is also the smart pick for demolition rubble, tile, and dirt that would overload a larger bin.

The 15-yard rents flat at $650 and bridges the gap between a small cleanout and a full remodel. It fits a mid-size kitchen job or a garage clear-out where a 10-yard runs short but a 20-yard is more bin than the project needs. On tight blocks in Bella Vista and Queen Village it still tucks into a single parking length, which keeps street placement simpler than the longer 30- and 40-yard sizes.

The 20-yard rents flat at $695 and holds about 8 pickup loads. It is the most-requested size for whole-room renovations, flooring tear-outs, and larger residential cleanouts across Manayunk, Roxborough, and Mount Airy. The 20-yard is the middle-of-the-range choice that covers most multi-room projects without the second haul a 10- or 15-yard often forces.

The 30-yard rents flat at $795 and handles heavy mixed construction and demolition debris. It fits roof tear-offs, whole-home gut jobs, and estate clearances where volume and weight both climb fast. On a full-house renovation the 30-yard cuts the number of swap-outs a crew waits on, keeping the job moving instead of pausing for a haul-away.

The 40-yard rents flat at $895 and is built for high-volume, lighter material, framing lumber, drywall, siding, and commercial cleanouts. It is the largest roll-off available and suits contractor jobs near The Navy Yard and large commercial sites. Because it runs the longest of the five sizes, the 40-yard almost always needs driveway or lot space rather than a narrow curb.

Same-day and next-day roll-off delivery is available across Philadelphia County when routes allow. On active job sites, a full bin can be swapped for an empty one so crews keep working without waiting on a haul-away. A swap-out counts as a fresh flat-rate delivery on the new bin, so scheduling swaps ahead of a full container keeps a project on pace.

Roll-offs sized 20-, 30-, and 40-yard handle construction and demolition debris, concrete, brick, shingles, wood, and drywall. Flat pricing keeps a contractor's per-job cost predictable instead of guessing at end-of-week tonnage charges. For heavy C&D loads like concrete and masonry, a smaller 10- or 15-yard is often the correct choice, since dense debris hits weight limits well before it fills a larger box.

For homeowners mid-renovation and families handling an estate cleanout, a 10- or 15-yard bin dropped in the driveway lets you load on your own schedule over the rental term instead of paying by the item. The rental period gives you days to sort, donate what you want, and load the rest, rather than clearing everything in a single afternoon.

Pick the size by the debris you actually generate, not the project name. If you are clearing one bathroom, a small basement, or a single-room cleanout, the 10-yard at $595 fits a tight driveway and the lowest price. If you are redoing a kitchen or clearing a full apartment, the 15-yard at $650 or 20-yard at $695 gives room without a second haul.
If you are tearing off a roof, gutting a whole rowhouse, or running a construction site, the 30-yard at $795 handles heavy mixed debris, and the 40-yard at $895 takes bulky light material like framing, drywall, and siding. The trade-off is simple: a bigger bin costs more and eats more curb or driveway space, but a bin that is too small means paying for a second delivery. When you are unsure, sizing up one step usually costs less than a second drop-off, since a second delivery repeats the full flat rate rather than a partial fee.
Weight matters as much as volume: heavy debris like concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt fills the floor of a bin long before it looks full, so a 10-yard is the right call for dense material even when a room looks large, while light bulky waste like cabinetry, decking, and drywall is what pushes homeowners toward a 20- or 30-yard. If curb space is the constraint on a narrow one-way block, the shorter 10- and 15-yard bins sit within a single parking length, while the 30- and 40-yard bins run longer and often need driveway placement or a street permit.

Philadelphia's rowhouse blocks and one-way streets make delivery access the real variable, a 40-yard that fits a driveway in Roxborough may need a city permit to sit at the curb on a narrow street in Bella Vista or Fishtown. Roll-off bins placed on a public Philadelphia street generally require a permit from the city, while a bin set on private driveway or yard space usually does not. Many older South Philadelphia and Point Breeze rows have no driveway at all, which is exactly where curb placement and permitting come into play, and where a shorter 10- or 15-yard bin that sits within one parking length is the practical answer. Coverage runs from the tight side streets near Reading Terminal Market and Rittenhouse Square out to job sites near The Navy Yard, FDR Park, and the edges of Fairmount Park and Wissahickon Valley Park. Hilly, winding blocks in Manayunk and Roxborough and the trolley-line streets of Germantown and Mount Airy each change the drop angle, so confirming the exact placement spot before the truck rolls saves a wasted trip. Texting a photo of your driveway or street frontage is the fastest way to confirm a bin will fit and whether a permit is worth pulling.
