10-Yard Dumpster Rental in Asheville, NC
The 10-yard dumpster is our smallest, and one of our most popular, sizes in Asheville, NC. It fits comfortably in a standard driveway, yet it swallows a garage cleanout, a small bathroom remodel, or a serious yard cleanup in a single load. It is a favorite in tight-driveway neighborhoods like Montford, where historic lots leave little room to spare. If you are a homeowner tackling a weekend project, start here.
10-Yard Dumpster Dimensions
A 10-yard container measures roughly 12 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4 feet tall, about 3 pickup truck loads, or 50–70 large trash bags. The low 4-foot walls make it easy to toss heavy items over the side by hand. Compare all options on our dumpster sizes guide.
What Fits in a 10-Yard Dumpster
- Garage, attic, or basement cleanout
- Furniture from 1–2 rooms
- Small bathroom or kitchen remodel debris
- Yard waste: branches, leaves, shrubs, sod
- About 1,500 square feet of carpet or flooring
Too small for whole-home cleanouts or bulky construction debris. For those, see our 20-yard dumpster rental in Asheville.
Weight Limit & Overage Fees
A 10-yard rental typically includes 1–2 tons of debris. Go over and overage applies at $75–$100 per extra ton. Heavy materials like dirt, concrete, or shingles burn through weight fast, so tell us what you are tossing when you call and we will confirm the right size before delivery.
