How is it possible that—in some cases—spending $300 to rent a 20 yard dumpster is a more cost-efficient option than renting a 10 yard dumpster for $250?
\n\nThe math doesn’t seem to add up but this scenario can, and does, happen.
\n\nThe key is looking beyond the booking cost of the dumpster and taking a closer look at weight limitations.
\n\n\nIt’s easy to see the base price of a dumpster and make your decision based on that information alone, but it’s a mistake that could cost you time and money in the end.
\n\nStart by estimating the amount of junk, waste, or debris as accurately as possible.
\n\n\n\n\nThe key to renting the right dumpster for the job is estimating the type and amount of debris as accurately as possible.
\n
In this article, we'll go over:
\n\nIf you have trouble estimating the amount of debris you have to dispose of, a local dumpster rental company is a great resource to turn to.
\n\nThere are plenty of resources out there to help you estimate your disposal volume yourself, like this in-depth dumpster rental sizing guide.
\n\nTIP: One cubic yard is equal to a 3x3x3 ft volume of space—roughly the size of a standard-size kitchen stove. (See image below.)
\n
If you estimate the load to be anywhere from 3 - 6 cubic yards, a 10 yard dumpster makes sense.
\n\nSee the chart below for some examples of dumpster size recommendations for various projects.
\n\nWhat should you do if your debris estimate is 8, 9, 10 or 11 cubic yards?
\n\nThe mistake some people make is trying to get by with renting a 10 yard bin to cram 10 yards of debris inside.
\n\nWhile this may not be an issue in all cases, there are certain situations where this scenario can lead to problems.
\n\n
When you try to save a few bucks by going with a smaller dumpster than what the debris estimates tell you, it can cause headaches in a handful of ways.
\n\nRenting a dumpster that's too small for the job could force you to pay more than the original price you were quoted or end up extending the amount of time it takes to complete your project.
\n\n
You’ll pay overage fees if the weight of the load exceeds the stated weight allowance.
\n\nOverage fees can cost $100+ per ton in some markets, with the average national cost around $75 per ton.
\n\nThese fees can add up fast, especially if the debris is dense and heavy.
\n\nAnother scenario that is sure to cost more and extend the time needed to complete the job is the need to rent additional dumpsters.
\n\nNot only can this easily increase your final cost by hundreds of dollars, but the time needed to arrange another dumpster delivery is sure to slow down the progress of your project.
\n\nIf the truck driver picking up your rental has to unload some of the debris to conform to local transport safety laws, you may incur additional fees for the added labor you've caused.
\n\nNot only does this slow down the rental company's schedule for the day, but you're then forced to come up with a disposal solution for the leftover waste.
\n\nWaiting on additional deliveries, coming up with a solution for leftover debris that couldn't fit in your container, and allotting time for multiple dumpster pickups can all lead to delays in your project.
\n\nIf you're not in a time crunch, these delays may not inconvenience you in any way, but if it inconveniences the company you're renting from, this may reflect the final bill you receive for these services.
\n\nAnytime you’re on the fence as to which size dumpster to rent, go with a size larger than you think you’ll need to finish the job.
\n\nIn many cases, you’ll find that the amount of debris generated during a project (renovation, demolition, construction, etc.) is greater than originally estimated.
\n\nThe “extra” container volume provides a buffer zone to be sure the dumpster is not overfilled.
\n\nUse the chart below as a reference in determining the ideal dumpster size based on different scenarios.

Hopefully, these general guidelines will help you narrow down the dumpster size that will work best for your particular needs.
\n\nAs previously mentioned, the most accurate and best way to determine the ideal dumpster size for the job is to contact a local dumpster rental company in your area.

Dumpster sizes, weight allowances, and costs can vary from company to company, but these nationwide averages can help give you an idea of what to expect when deciding which size will work best for you.
\n\n\n\n
| Size | \n\t\t\tDimensions | \n\t\t\tWeight Allowance | \n\t\t\tCost | \n\t\t
| 10 Yard | \n\t\t\t12 ft x 8 ft x 3.5 ft | \n\t\t\t2-3 tons (4,000-6,000 lbs) | \n\t\t\t$300 | \n\t\t
| 20 Yard | \n\t\t\t22 ft x 8 ft x 4 ft | \n\t\t\t2-4 tons (4,000-8,000 lbs) | \n\t\t\t$380 | \n\t\t
| 30 Yard | \n\t\t\t22 ft x 8 ft x 6 ft | \n\t\t\t4-5 tons (8,000-10,000 lbs) | \n\t\t\t$440 | \n\t\t

To better understand the different sizes that dumpsters come in, you need to first understand what exactly a cubic yard is.
\n\nOne cubic yard is equivalent to an area of 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft, or 27 cubic feet.
\n\nSo, a 10 yard dumpster is equivalent to 270 cubic feet, a 20 yard dumpster is equivalent to 540 cubic ft, and so on.
\n\nIf you'd rather not do any calculating, this list of will give you an idea of what common projects each dumpster size can accommodate, so you can choose the right size for you.
\n\n
Overage fees can greatly increase the price you pay for your dumpster rental if you aren't careful.
\n\nYou can avoid overage fees by being conservative with your debris estimates and renting a larger dumpster than you think you'll need to finish your project.
\n\n
Overage fees vary from company to company, but based on a survey collected by Hometown Dumpster Rental, these are the nationwide average fees you can expect to be charged if you exceed your weight allowance.
\n\n\n\n
| Overweight | \n\t\t\tAverage Fee for Exceeding Weight Allowance | \n\t\t
| 1 ton | \n\t\t\t$62 | \n\t\t
| 2 tons | \n\t\t\t$124 | \n\t\t
| 3 tons | \n\t\t\t$186 | \n\t\t
| 4 tons | \n\t\t\t$248 | \n\t\t
\n\n
Let's look at an example situation to better explain what we mean...
\n\nA homeowner doing spring cleaning rents a 10 yard dumpster for $250, and it comes with a 2 ton weight allowance.
\n\nAfter finishing the job and having the dumpster picked up and hauled away, the dumpster company weighs the load at the landfill, and it weighs in at 3 tons—1 ton over the dumpster's weight limit.
\n\nAssuming the overage fee is the same as the national average for this particular rental company, the homeowner would owe a $62 overage fee on top of the $250 rental price.
\n\nThe total cost for the 10 yard dumpster rental is now $312.
\n\nThe homeowner could have rented a 20 yard dumpster with a 4 ton weight allowance for $300 (or less in some cases), saving them some money and giving them some extra space for additional items.
\n\nThis is an example of how going with a larger dumpster size can save you money on your final rental bill.

\n\nKnowing that, there are a variety of motives behind leaving a false review for a product or service.
\n\n\n\n\nAn average of 39% of all online reviews are fake.
\n
An employee may be incentivized by their boss, or a proud aunt may be driven by love, to leave a gleaming, 5-star review for a company on Google.
\n\nConversely, a local competitor or scorned ex could easily leave a totally false online review for a service they never actually received, all with the intent of deterring business away from that particular company.
\n\nThe younger generation that grew up with the internet (18-34 year-olds) have reportied spotting false online reviews at a much higher rate than older generations, likely due to the fact that they have more exposure to different types of dialect used across the web.
\n\nUnfortunately, there is such a high volume of false reviews online that, even for people are who are good at spotting them, there's still a great chance that they could be fooled by online campaigns created to influence their purchasing decisions.
\n\nThe following are signs to look for when spotting fake online reviews, but these are not blanket statements.
\n\nThere will always be exceptions to the general rule, and while it is much more likely that a review that says, 'My Tommy boy is the best repairman in the biz!!!' was created by a friend or family member, there is always the possibility that this particular customer was just having an excellent day.
\n\nCommon signs that an online review you're reading may be fake:
\n\n
As mentioned above, a passionate review can go one of two ways: positive or negative.
\n\nStudies have shown that reviews that use multiple exclamation points are more likely to be fake and written with an agenda.
\n\nIt's not by accident, either.
\n\nFor whatever reason, people taking the time to leave real reviews on goods and services they've actually received are less likely to format their text in this way, even if they type this way on other websites.
\n\nSocial media platforms are full of overly enthusiastic comments with an emphasis on emotion via multiple exclamation points for all our friends and family to see.
\n\nWe tend to take on a more professional tone, however, when leaving a review online that we know other consumers we do not personally know will see.
\n\nBecause it is so common to see people type this way!!! in our everyday feed while scrolling, people leaving false reviews intentionally include this in their text to, ironically, make their review seem more authentic.
\n\nWith this in mind, here are a few examples of what we're talking about:
\n\nYou get the picture.
\n\n
While it isn't always the case, reviews that are very short in length can oftentimes be a fake review.
\n\nAs most companies will tell you, getting customers to leave reviews can sometimes be difficult.
\n\nSo, when a customer takes special time out of their day to go through the trouble of leaving any kind of review, it's likely that they will also take the time to mention what they did or didn't like about said good or service.
\n\nThere are off-shore companies that businesses can hire to create a marketing campaign targeted to build online exposure via a false 'customer base.'
\n\nThese companies will create dozens of burner email accounts that allow them to leave not one, but multiple fake reviews intended to boost the confidence consumers have in the company in question.
\n\nSince these people are writing multiple reviews, they tend to keep it short and sweet for time efficiency.
\n\nNot to mention the fact that they likely couldn't mention specific details even if they tried due to the fact that they've never actually encountered the product or service they are reviewing.
\n\nOn the contrary, a long-winded review that goes into all details and specs related to a service or product could also be a fake review intended to market their service or product to the public.
\n\nWhile a happy customer may mention a few features that they particularly love about a product or service, it's not likely that they will write out every last one in detail.
\n\n
'Reviewers' from overseas usually speak English as a second language, which can sometimes make grammar, spelling, and punctuation stand out.
\n\nThere are tons of real, authentic reviews online written by real customers who do not speak English as their first language; these aren't the reviews we're talking about.
\n\nIt's when we pair the obvious second-language grammar with the signs mentioned above (several exclamation points and little to no details), that these reviews jump out as fake.
\n\nInternet plug-ins and bots are helping to fix a lot of these errors, but they aren't yet foolproof.
\n\n'Wonderful service from professional gentle men's!!' is a phrase that passes the English spelling/grammar check on this site and is a great example of an obvious grammatical error that could only be detected by real-life humans that fluently speak English.
\n\n
The uphill battle to eliminate fake online reviews has driven many companies to hire their own team to verify that the reviews being left are authentic.
\n\nIt's extra money out of their pocket to employ people to do so, but it is an important step in maintaining a website's integrity.
\n\nMega companies, like Amazon, receive such a high volume of customer reviews that they cannot possibly verify every single review published, but they do employ a staff whose job it is to verify at least some.
\n\nOther companies, like Hometown, service a more manageable amount of clientele that allows them to only publish verified customer reviews.
\n\nBig or small, websites that verify customer reviews do not filter through positive or negative reviews; they publish real reviews whether they are good or bad.
\n\nWhat they filter through are reviews submitted, that they can confirm through a paper trail, to make sure they were written by real customers who paid real money for the product or service they are leaving a review on.
\n\nAt Hometown, we personally verify every review submitted to our site before we publish it so that customers in need of a dumpster rental or junk removal service can feel confident in making a decision.
\n\nWe believe in not only supporting locally-owned companies but making sure that clients have an honest experience when inviting these services into their home or business.
