Dumpster Rental in
Carrington, ND
A dumpster in Carrington takes one phone call: pick a size from 10 to 40 yards, set the delivery date, and the container arrives. The 10 yard runs $870-$945 with 10 days to fill it.
Mon–Fri 7am–7pm CT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
No quote-chasing: the numbers for North Dakota are on the page. One call books the container, one account manager owns the order until pickup, and the delivery date you set is the one the truck works to.
One Carrington job may be light — emptying a house or clearing out a shed — while the next is heavy, like an asphalt shingle roof with two tear-off layers or a concrete slab from behind a farm shop. The older homes near City Park throw out plaster, lath, carpet and furniture; the places out toward Russell Lake send construction scrap, tin and ranch debris. Which container works usually comes down to weight more than volume.
The container will sit on a driveway or a gravel yard rather than a commercial lot. In town that usually means the drive alongside an older house, and most take a loaded container without trouble; out on Highway 281 Northeast or ND 200 it means a farm yard or a shop pad that already handles trucks. The thing to check ahead of time is the ground after rain and the gate width — a lane built for a pickup can be tight for the delivery truck to line up straight. Walk the spot once, check that the ground is firm and anything low is clear, and the delivery takes minutes.
Dumpster Sizes in Carrington
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Carrington, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
The 10 yard is the short container: one room stripped out, a bathroom gut, a small shed. It runs $870 to $945 and sits on a single driveway width.
Holds about 3 pickup truck loads or 50–70 trash bags. Footprint roughly one standard parking space. Heavy-debris configs can carry up to 10 tons.
Best for dirt and soil removal, brick and masonry, concrete demo, and asphalt shingles. Also fits small bath remodels and garage cleanouts.
The 20 yard is the renovation workhorse, $920 to $1155. Cabinets, subfloor and trim from a kitchen and a bath together fit with room to spare.
Holds 8–10 pickup truck loads or about 120 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-house decluttering, mid-size garage and attic cleanouts, mid-size landscaping, and roof replacements on smaller homes.
The 40 yard, $1105 to $1285, is demolition scale: whole-structure teardowns, commercial cleanouts, major additions. It needs a long, straight, level approach — confirm the space before booking.
Holds about 12 pickup truck loads or 230–250 trash bags. The 8-ft walls make rear-door loading essential for bulky items.
Best for new construction, major demos, full kitchen-and-bath gut renos, and large commercial cleanouts. Note: dense debris (concrete, shingles) needs a heavy-debris bin instead.
The 15 yard adds height without adding length, so it still fits a normal drive. Good for a garage cleanout plus whatever came off the walls with it.
Holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads or 80–100 trash bags. Roughly the volume of 15 standard washing machines.
Best for multi-room remodels, flooring removal, garage cleanouts, light demo, larger landscaping, and deck builds. Heavy materials need a smaller heavy-debris bin.
The 30 yard runs $1035 to $1120 and has tall walls, so it earns its price on bulk rather than weight: siding, framing, a whole-house clearout.
Holds about 9 pickup truck loads or 170–190 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for whole-house cleanouts, large home demos, active construction, and commercial mixed debris. Note: cannot accept dirt, concrete, brick, or shingles.
Residential and Construction Dumpster Rental in Carrington, ND
For homeowners
A garage or basement cleanout is the most common homeowner job, and it is a volume job: bulky, light, and done over a weekend. Kitchen and bath remodels add cabinets and flooring. Either way the container sits on the Carrington driveway, and the rear door swings open so heavy pieces roll in instead of going over the wall.
For contractors
On a build or a gut job in Carrington, the debris changes by phase — framing scrap is bulky, demolition is dense, tear-offs are heavier than they look. Matching the container to the phase beats parking one big container for the whole job, and swaps keep the site clear without a second setup.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Carrington
- Call for a quote. Describe the debris, the address, and the dates. One account manager takes the order and stays on it.
- Pick the size and the spot. Clear a straight run for the truck and check for low branches or wires over the drop point.
- Load it. Keep everything level with or below the top rail, and keep heavy material in a low, even layer.
- Call for pickup. Ring the same number when you are done, or at the end of the rental period.
How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost in Carrington, ND?
Dumpster rental pricing in Carrington varies with disposal costs, debris weight, rental length, and delivery distance. The ranges below reflect recent local pricing rather than a fixed quote — the final number depends on the size you pick and what goes in it.
Estimated Dumpster Rental Costs in Carrington
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $870 – $945 | $390 | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $920 – $1155 | $425 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $1035 – $1120 | $405 | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $1105 – $1285 | $500 | Up to 10 days | 5–8 tons |
* Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance from the yard, fuel, and how easy the drop spot is to reach. Where it shows as included, it is already inside the range.
** Each rental carries a base weight allowance. Debris over that allowance is billed as an adjustment at pickup.
Why Is There a Price Range?
Five things move the number inside that range:
- Debris type. Clean wood and household junk dispose cheaply. Shingles, plaster, tile, dirt and concrete are billed by weight and hit the allowance early.
- Weight. A container can reach its tonnage cap while it still looks half empty, which is the single most common surprise on a first rental.
- Rental length. The quote covers 10 days. Longer rentals are extended for an additional fee.
- Delivery distance. How far the truck runs from the yard to your address, and whether it can make a straight approach.
- Local disposal rates. Landfill and transfer-station fees are set locally and are the largest single input to the price.
What Is Included in the Base Rental?
- Delivery to your Carrington address on the date you book
- A 10-day rental period
- Pickup and haul-away when you call
- Disposal up to the size's included tonnage
- One account manager handling the order from quote through pickup
Charged separately: weight over the included allowance, days past the rental period, and any load containing prohibited material.
How to Get an Exact Quote
Have these ready and the quote takes a couple of minutes:
- What the debris is — remodel, roof tear-off, cleanout, yard waste, concrete
- Roughly how much of it there is
- The delivery address and where the container should sit
- The date you want it dropped
Call (888) 712-3005 and describe the job. If two sizes both look plausible, say so — the gap between them is usually smaller than the cost of a second haul.
What You Can Put in a Dumpster in Carrington
Most of what comes out of a house or a job site is fine. The restricted list is set by the disposal facility, not by us, and it is short.
Accepted
- Household junk, furniture, and general trash
- Renovation debris — drywall, lumber, trim, cabinets
- Flooring, carpet, tile, and countertops
- Roofing shingles and underlayment
- Yard waste, brush, and branches
- Appliances with the refrigerant already removed
- Concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt — mention these when you book, because they are priced by weight
Not accepted
- Paint, solvents, and other liquids
- Motor oil, fuel, and antifreeze
- Batteries and propane tanks
- Tires
- Asbestos and other hazardous material
- Medical or biological waste
- Appliances still holding refrigerant
Everything has to sit level with or below the top rail — an overfilled container cannot be tarped, so the driver has to leave it until the load comes down. If you are not sure about an item, ask before it goes over the side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Carrington dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Carrington dumpster costs range from $870 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $1285 for a 40 yard dumpster.
Each dumpster size includes a maximum allowable tonnage and a 10-day rental period. If you need the dumpster longer, you can extend your rental period for an additional fee. Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance, size, and access. The full breakdown by size, including the delivery estimate and the included tonnage, is in the pricing section above.
Carrington's housing stock is mixed in age — older homes near City Park, newer ones on the edges — and the permit answer is the same for both: a dumpster on your own driveway or yard does not need a permit. The only case that involves the City of Carrington is a container in the street or another public right-of-way, and they will want the exact spot and how many days it will be there.
The standard window is 10 days, counted from delivery. Most renovations and cleanouts finish well inside it.
The period is not rigid in either direction. A job that runs long can be extended by phone for an additional daily fee, and a container that fills up fast can be collected early if the pickup schedule has room. Either way, one call settles it.
Usually quickly, but it depends on the week. Deliveries are grouped by direction, so how soon a container reaches Carrington comes down to what is already on the schedule for that part of the map.
If the project has a firm start date, call a couple of days ahead of it. Same-week drops happen all the time; counting on one without asking first is how people end up waiting.
Measure the job by its debris, not its square footage. One bathroom or a single room of flooring is a 10. A full kitchen, cabinets and counters included, fills a 20. Whole-floor gut jobs and big cleanouts run to a 30.
The larger sizes share the same footprint and only grow taller, so a bigger container does not need a bigger driveway. The exception is heavy material: shingles, tile, concrete or dirt hit the weight limit long before the container looks full, so mention them when you call and let the tonnage set the size.
The process depends on where the dumpster sits. On your own driveway there is nothing to apply for; only a street placement needs paperwork. Start at the City of Carrington office with the address, the proposed spot, and about how long the container will be there. They will confirm whether that street can take it and issue the permit if it can, so give yourself a few days of lead time rather than planning the delivery for the next morning.
Carrington's oldest streets go back to the early 1900s and some are narrow, so a container parked on one can turn a two-way street into a one-lane road. Whether street placement works comes down to available width and room for the delivery truck to line up; a quiet side street may have room, but a busier route is likely to be turned down. If you do get approval, the container goes out toward the curb, clear of driveways and hydrants, and traffic still has to get around it.
