Part 1
General Rental Questions
How do I rent a dumpster from Eureka Dumpster Rental?
Call (720) 627-6880 and tell the team your project and location. Eureka Dumpster Rental is a call-only business, so every rental is set up over the phone with a real person, not an online form.
How much does a dumpster rental cost?
Pricing depends on the container size, your location, and how long you need it. Call (720) 627-6880 for a straight quote. The team can usually give you a price on the same call.
How long can I keep the dumpster?
Most rentals run about 7 to 10 days, but the team can adjust the timeline for longer projects. Ask about your specific timeframe when you call.
Do I need to be present for delivery or pickup?
No. As long as the placement spot is marked or accessible, drivers can deliver and pick up without you on site. Just let the team know when you call.
What areas does Eureka Dumpster Rental serve?
The company serves 16 cities across the Denver metro area, based out of its yard near Olde Town Arvada. See the Service Area page for the full list.
Part 2
Sizes & Capacity
What dumpster sizes are available?
Eureka Dumpster Rental offers 10, 15, 20, 30, and 40 yard containers. Call (720) 627-6880 and the team can help match a size to your project.
What size dumpster do I need for a small cleanout?
A 10 or 15 yard dumpster usually covers a garage cleanout, small remodel, or a few rooms of furniture and debris.
What size dumpster works for a full roof replacement?
Most roofing jobs fit in a 15 or 20 yard dumpster, though a larger roof or multiple layers of shingles may need a 30 yard container. The team can help size it based on your roof's square footage.
What size do I need for a home addition or full remodel?
Larger construction and demolition projects typically call for a 20 or 30 yard dumpster, and full teardowns often need a 40 yard container.
Is there a weight limit on dumpsters?
Yes, each size has a weight limit included in the rental price. Heavy materials like concrete, dirt, and shingles fill the weight limit faster than bulky, lighter debris, so ask the team which size fits your material.
Part 3
Delivery, Placement & Permits
Where can the dumpster be placed?
Most dumpsters go on a driveway, but they can also be placed on a street or in a yard if there's enough clearance for delivery. Let the team know your setup when you call.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster?
A permit usually is not needed for a dumpster placed entirely on private property, like a driveway. Placing a container on a public street typically requires a permit from the local city. The team can tell you whether your city requires one when you call.
What surface can a dumpster sit on?
Dumpsters can sit on asphalt, concrete, or gravel without an issue. For grass or a surface you want protected, ask about placing boards under the container.
How much space does a dumpster need?
Plan on roughly 60 feet of straight clearance for the delivery truck, plus room for the container itself, which varies by size. The team can talk through tight-access sites when you call.
Can the dumpster be placed near power lines or a tree?
Drivers need clearance overhead to lower and raise the container safely, so let the team know about power lines, low branches, or other overhead obstacles when you schedule.
Part 4

How do I schedule a pickup once I'm done?
Call the same number, (720) 627-6880, and let the team know the container is ready. Pickup is usually arranged within a day or two, sooner if you need it.
Can I extend my rental if my project runs long?
Yes, just call before your rental period ends and the team can extend the dates for an additional daily or weekly rate.
What if I need a dumpster faster than the standard schedule?
Same-day dumpster rental is available depending on the time of your call and the delivery location. Ask about same-day availability when you dial (720) 627-6880.

What Can and Cannot Go In
What materials can go in the dumpster?
General construction debris, household junk, furniture, yard waste, roofing materials, and demolition debris are all accepted. Ask the team about your specific materials when you call.
What can't go in a dumpster?
Hazardous materials, including paint, solvents, tires, batteries, and refrigerants, cannot go in a roll-off dumpster. Ask the team about disposal options for anything hazardous.
Can I put concrete or dirt in a standard dumpster?
Heavy debris like concrete, dirt, and brick usually needs its own dumpster or a lower fill line because of weight limits. Mention concrete or heavy debris when you call so the right size and load type gets scheduled.
Can appliances go in the dumpster?
Most appliances are accepted, though items with refrigerants, like refrigerators and air conditioners, may need to be handled separately. Ask the team when you schedule.
Who do I ask if I'm not sure whether something can go in the dumpster?
Call (720) 627-6880 before you load anything questionable. The team can tell you what's allowed and, if needed, point you to the right disposal option for hazardous or restricted items.
