A construction and demolition dumpster differs from a household junk bin because the debris is heavier and denser, a 20-yard bin of stacked drywall and shingles weighs far more than the same bin of furniture and boxes. This service is priced flat so a full load of jobsite debris costs the same $695 for a 20-yard whether it arrives half full or packed to the fill line. Flat pricing exists specifically because C&D loads are hard to weigh-guess, and a per-ton bill on shingles or plaster can double a contractor's budget mid-project. A dumpster rental is not junk removal, the crew drops the bin and you or your crew load it, which keeps the price down on labor-heavy demo work.
Sizing follows the job. A 10-yard bin ($595) holds roughly 4 pickup loads and fits a single-bathroom gut or a small deck tear-down. A 15-yard ($650) or 20-yard ($695) covers a kitchen remodel or a mid-size roofing tear-off, a typical single-family roof in Macalester-Groveland or Merriam Park fills a 20-yard with 25 to 30 squares of asphalt shingle. A 30-yard ($795) fits whole-house renovations and new framing scrap; a 40-yard ($895) suits large demolition or multi-room gut jobs in Summit Hill's older two-and-three-story homes. If the debris is heavy rubble, concrete, brick, dirt, or tile, a smaller dedicated bin is safer, because a 40-yard packed with concrete exceeds legal road weight; confirm heavy loads on the call so the right bin arrives.
Placement is the detail that trips up jobsites. On narrow West Seventh and Frogtown streets, or the tight driveways in older Dayton's Bluff and Battle Creek lots, the roll-off truck needs about 60 feet of clear straight approach and overhead clearance free of low branches and wires. Driveway drops avoid permits entirely. A bin set in the street or on a Saint Paul boulevard typically requires a right-of-way permit from the city, and the address block confirms whether a permit is needed before the truck rolls. Plywood under the bin's wheels protects a fresh Como Park driveway from scuffs and pressure marks.
Booking runs three plain steps: 1) Call (507) 321-4950 and describe the debris, roofing, drywall, concrete, or mixed demo. 2) The size and flat price get set, plus a placement spot with clear truck access. 3) The bin drops on the scheduled day, you load it over the rental window, and one call brings the pickup. The flat number quoted is the number billed, no tonnage true-up arrives after pickup.
