How Big Is a 30 Yard Dumpster?
30 yard dumpster measurements land around 22 feet long, 8 feet wide and 6 feet tall, though exact dumpster dimensions 30 yard units carry can shift a little by manufacturer. That box swallows framing lumber, drywall, shingles and old furniture without much thought about stacking, and it pairs well with a construction dumpster rental plan if you're running a bigger job. If you are not sure this is the right size for your project, dumpster sizes and dimensions walks through how the 30 fits against the 10, 20 and 40 yard boxes. Revere Porta Pros delivers these across Revere, and jobs 3.3 miles away in Chelsea or 4.4 miles west in Everett get the same truck and the same driver who knows the streets. Before delivery, clear about 60 feet of straight clearance behind where the truck will park, since that's what the roll-off needs to drop the container without dragging it across your driveway or lawn. If your Revere property has a tight alley or a shared driveway, mention that when you book so dispatch can plan the drop, and if you're weighing this against porta potty rental cost for the same project, ask your coordinator to bundle the quote.
How Much Does a 30 Yard Roll Off Dumpster Cost in Revere?
Price depends mostly on rental length and what you're throwing away. Here's what a 30 yard roll-off dumpster rental runs against the shorter options:
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| Week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| Month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
Most Revere customers renting a 30 yard dumpster for a renovation or cleanout land in the week to month range rather than the single-day rate, since demo and hauling rarely wrap in 24 hours. A delivery fee applies separately and a lot of that variation comes down to weight and what's inside the box, similar to how porta potty rental per day pricing shifts with duration and demand. Before you load anything questionable, check what cannot go in a dumpster and dumpster weight limits, because overloaded roll-offs get flagged at the transfer station and that adds cost nobody budgeted for. For a broader comparison across every size we haul, dumpster rental cost breaks down the 10, 20 and 40 yard pricing side by side.
Do I Need a Permit for a 30 Yard Dumpster in Revere?
Placement in the public right of way, meaning on a street or sidewalk instead of a driveway, needs confirming with the City of Revere before delivery. We have not verified a specific permit fee or ordinance number for this page, so ask your Revere Porta Pros coordinator to check with the city on your address before the truck rolls. Driveway placement on private property is usually simpler, much like siting a storage container rental on your own lot instead of the street. For a general rundown of what other municipalities typically ask for, see dumpster permit requirements. If your job also needs debris containment under OSHA 1926.252 for chutes and enclosures, or general site housekeeping under OSHA 1926.25, your contractor's safety plan should already address that separately from any city permit, and a temporary fence rental can help keep the site secured while debris is staged.
If this job is a full construction site rather than a one-time cleanout, pair the dumpster with construction site services and figure toilets into the plan too, since OSHA 1926.51(c) sets crew-based toilet ratios for job sites. Smaller jobs might do better with a 10 yard dumpster rental or 20 yard dumpster rental; bigger teardowns sometimes need the 40 yard dumpster rental instead. Explore roll-off dumpster rental for the full lineup, or start at porta potty rental in Revere if you need restrooms on the same site, and check standard porta potty rental or handwashing station rental if the crew needs sanitation too. Jobs further out, like porta potty rental in Melrose 5.5 miles northwest or porta potty rental in Salem 8.9 miles northeast, get the same roll-off service.
How long can I keep a 30 yard dumpster?
Most rentals run a week or a month, priced as shown above; daily rates exist but rarely make sense for a 30 yard box since loading takes longer than a day on most jobs. Ask about swap-outs if you're generating debris continuously over several weeks, and compare against monthly porta potty rental if your restroom needs run on the same long timeline.
What can't I put in a 30 yard dumpster?
Paints, solvents, tires, batteries and certain electronics are commonly restricted. See what cannot go in a dumpster for the full list before loading, since violations can mean extra fees at pickup.
Will a 30 yard dumpster fit in my driveway?
Most residential driveways in Revere handle it fine, but the truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the drop point to back in safely. Tell dispatch about tight spots when scheduling.
Do I need a permit to place a dumpster on my property?
Private driveway placement usually needs nothing extra, but street or sidewalk placement requires confirming with the City of Revere first. See porta potty permit requirements for how permitting questions generally work locally.
How is weight handled on a 30 yard dumpster?
Weight limits vary by what you're disposing of, and heavier materials like shingles or concrete fill the weight limit before they fill the box. Check dumpster weight limits before loading anything dense.
