We Know These Streets, Because We Work Them Every Day
Anyone can drop a steel box on a wide suburban driveway. The test is a narrow rowhome street in Allison Hill with parked cars on both sides, low limbs, and a permit that has to be right.
Dave Reinhart started this company in 2009 after years of watching haulers turn up late, guess at sizing, and leave gouges in customers' driveways. The whole operation is built around not doing those three things.
- Correct sizing, honestly. We will tell you when you need something smaller and cheaper.
- Driveway protection as standard, not a line item.
- Weight allowances stated up front, so no surprise invoice.
- Drivers who call ahead instead of leaving you guessing.
- Permit guidance for street placements before you book.
Container Sizes
Which Dumpster Size Do You Actually Need?
A quick rule that saves people money: heavy debris goes in small containers, light bulky debris goes in big ones. Volume is what you rent. Weight is what you pay for.
| Size | Dimensions | Capacity | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | Roughly 12 ft long × 8 ft wide × 3.5 ft high | About 3 to 4 pickup truck loads | Concrete, brick, block and masonry |
| 15 Yard | Roughly 16 ft long × 8 ft wide × 4 ft high | About 5 to 6 pickup truck loads | Mid-size roof tear-offs |
| 20 Yard | Roughly 22 ft long × 8 ft wide × 4.5 ft high | About 8 pickup truck loads | Whole-floor and multi-room renovations |
| 30 Yard | Roughly 22 ft long × 8 ft wide × 6 ft high | About 12 pickup truck loads | New construction and major renovation |
| 40 Yard | Roughly 22 ft long × 8 ft wide × 8 ft high | About 16 pickup truck loads | Commercial and industrial clear-outs |

Read the guide →Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to rent a dumpster in Harrisburg?
Cost depends on the size of the container, how long you keep it, and the weight of the debris going in. We quote a flat rate that includes delivery, pickup and disposal, along with a clearly stated weight allowance and overage rate, so you know exactly what you are paying before we deliver.
How quickly can you deliver a dumpster?
Next business day is standard across Harrisburg and Dauphin County, and same-day delivery is often available if you call in the morning. Steelton, Lemoyne and Camp Hill are minutes away; Hershey and Mechanicsburg are inside half an hour.
What size dumpster do I need?
For heavy debris like concrete or tile, a 10 yard. For a mid-size remodel or roof tear-off, 15 yards. For most whole-floor renovations and clear-outs, 20 yards. For bulky, light material, 30 or 40 yards. Tell us what is going in and we will size it correctly on the phone.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Harrisburg?
Not if it sits on your own driveway or property. If it needs to go on a city street or the public right-of-way, the City of Harrisburg requires a permit. We will tell you exactly what applies to your address before you book.
Will a dumpster damage my driveway?
We place protective boards under the container's rails on every residential delivery and set it down slowly rather than dropping it. On older or freshly sealed asphalt this makes a real difference.
What can't go in the dumpster?
Paint, solvents, oils, batteries, propane tanks, tires, asbestos, medical waste and refrigerant-containing appliances all need separate handling. Electronics and appliances belong at the Dauphin County Recycling Center. Everything else from a normal renovation or clear-out is fine.
