What affects the price of a dumpster
Every company prices a little differently, and only the one you speak with can quote your job. These are the things that move the number up or down.

The main price drivers
Size
Container size
Bigger boxes cost more to rent, though not always in proportion.
Weight
Allowance and overage
Quotes usually include a set weight. Debris over that is charged by the ton, so heavy jobs need an honest description.
Days
Rental period
A set number of days comes with the quote. Keeping it longer adds a daily or weekly charge.
Debris
What's going in
Clean concrete, dirt, shingles and mixed junk can each be priced differently.
Distance
Where you are
Delivery to Woodland Park, Black Forest or out past Falcon can cost more than a drop near the center of the city.
Permits
Street placement
A city permit for a container in the right-of-way is a separate cost from the rental.
