A 10 yard dumpster measures about 12 feet long, 8 feet wide and 3.5 feet tall, and it holds roughly 3 to 4 pickup truck loads of debris. Those 10-yard dumpster dimensions make it the size most Richardson homeowners rent for a garage cleanout or a single bathroom remodel. If you want to rent 10 yard dumpster capacity for a small job, daily rates run from the measured range below.
Richardson Porta Pros delivers this size across Richardson for cleanouts, small renovations and yard debris jobs where a driveway can't spare much space. If you want the full lineup first, the roll-off dumpster rental page in Richardson covers every size we run.
A 10 cubic yard dumpster is the smallest roll-off most companies stock, built for tight driveways and small jobs. Among the 10 yard dumpster sizes we quote, this one is the easiest to squeeze onto a short drive. The box itself sits low, around 3.5 feet at the wall, which makes it easier to toss debris over the side without a ladder. For side-by-side comparisons against 20, 30 and 40 yard boxes, see dumpster sizes and dimensions for Richardson. Every delivery still needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so measure your driveway or street frontage before you book. If your alley or drive is shorter than that, tell us when you call and we'll figure out a placement that works.

Most Richardson homeowners renting a 10 yard trash dumpster book by the day or the week rather than the month, since a 10 yarder is usually a short job. A weekend cleanout in Richardson often lands close to the day rate, just booked Friday through Monday. Delivery is billed separately and typically falls in the $100 to $150 range for a single day, less for week-long jobs. For a breakdown across every size we carry, the dumpster rental cost page in Richardson walks through the full pricing picture, and 10 yard dumpster rental stays the page to bookmark for this specific size.
Placement in the public right of way, meaning the street or curb rather than your own driveway, needs confirming with the city before drop-off. We have not verified a specific Richardson ordinance number for this, so ask the city directly if the dumpster has to sit anywhere near the curb. Keeping the box on your own driveway usually avoids the question entirely. Our dumpster permit requirements page in Richardson lays out what to check before delivery day, and what cannot go in a dumpster covers the materials that get loads rejected. Overloading is its own problem too. Check dumpster weight limits before you fill it with shingles, concrete or wet drywall, since those add weight fast without adding much volume.
A 10 yard roll off dumpster is built for cleanouts, not full builds, so if your project is a full construction job rather than a cleanout, a 10 yard box is often too small. Look at construction dumpster rental or step up to a 20 yard dumpster rental, 30 yard dumpster rental or 40 yard dumpster rental in Richardson instead. Construction crews juggling debris and sanitation at the same time should also see construction site services, since most job sites need both a dumpster and a portable toilet on the same delivery.
About 3 to 4 full pickup truck loads, depending on how dense the material is. Drywall and yard waste pack differently than furniture or scrap wood, so a mixed load fills the box faster than you'd expect. If in doubt, size up rather than order a second dumpster later.
Only after confirming with the city, since street placement in Richardson falls in the public right of way. Driveway placement is simpler and avoids that question. Call ahead if your driveway is short, and we'll plan delivery around your specific access.
