How much does a dumpster rental cost in Southern Maine?

A dumpster rental from Waste Away costs $600 for one week with our 16-yard roll-off, and that includes 2 tons of disposal. $600 is the minimum. Extra days are quoted on the call, and weight past 2 tons is billed at the disposal facility rate. We deliver from our yard in Biddeford across Southern Maine.

The price, in one line

One week with our 16-yard roll-off is $600, with 2 tons of disposal included. That is the minimum, and it is the only published price on our site. We run one container size, so there is no size upsell and no menu to decode.

What the $600 includes

  • Delivery and pickup anywhere in our Southern Maine service area
  • One 16-yard roll-off, 16 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4 ft high, about 5 pickup-truck loads
  • One full week on your property
  • 2 tons of disposal
  • Planks under the container to protect your driveway
  • Sorting for donation and recycling before anything is disposed of

What can change the price

  1. Weight past 2 tons. Billed at the disposal facility rate. Shingles, concrete, brick, tile, plaster and dirt reach 2 tons long before the container looks full.
  2. Extra days. If the job runs past a week, extra days are quoted on the call.
  3. Street placement. If the container cannot sit on private property, your town may require a street permit. Any permit fee comes from the town, not from us.

How to keep the cost down

  • Keep dense material in mind. Tell us on the call if shingles or concrete are coming out.
  • Load it level with the top rail. Overfilled containers cannot be legally transported.
  • Keep prohibited items out: tires, car batteries, asbestos, paint and solvents, refrigerant appliances that have not been professionally evacuated, and hazardous or radioactive material.
  • Use the full week. The $600 covers seven days, so a weekend project has room to run long.

What to ask any dumpster company

  • How many tons are included, and what is the rate after that?
  • How many days does the price cover?
  • Are there fuel, environmental or delivery fees on top?
  • What size is the container, and will it fit my driveway?

With Waste Away the answers are 2 tons, 7 days, one published price, and a 16-yard roll-off that fits most residential driveways.

Other services are quoted on the call

Junk removal, hauling and contractor swap schedules depend on weight, access and frequency, so they are quoted by phone. See 16-yard roll-off dumpster rentals for full rental details.
