20-Yard Dumpster Colorado Springs

A 20-yard dumpster is the middle option in a five-size range: the 10-yard ($595), 15-yard ($650), 20-yard ($695), 30-yard ($795), and 40-yard ($895). The 20-yard holds about 8 pickup-truck loads, roughly double the 10-yard's 4 loads, which makes it the right pick for a full kitchen or two-bathroom gut in a Briargate or Cordera home, a garage-and-basement cleanout in Rockrimmon, or a single-layer roof tear-off on a Stetson Hills ranch house. If your job is a single small room or a light closet purge, the 15-yard at $650 saves footprint and money; if you are clearing an entire Broadmoor estate or running a large addition, step up to the 30-yard at $795 for the extra 4 pickup loads of capacity. The trade-off is driveway space against debris volume: the 20-yard's ~22-foot length needs a clear run of driveway or street, while the taller 30-yard holds more without a longer footprint.

The $695 is genuinely all-in. That price covers delivery, the disposal fees at the transfer station, fuel, and pickup, the number quoted is the number paid. Many Colorado Springs rentals advertise a low base rate and then stack a per-ton tonnage charge on top, which is why a driveway estimate can double at the scale. A 20-yard filled with dense material like tile, concrete, or wet dirt still stays at $695; concrete and clean fill are the one exception where a dedicated heavy-material container is recommended, and that is confirmed on the phone before delivery, not after.

Booking runs in three plain steps. First, call (719) 646-0944 and describe the job, a bathroom remodel, a Powers-corridor rental turnover, a Cheyenne Cañon deck demo. Second, the address is checked for placement: a 20-yard sits fine on most Wolf Ranch and Skyway driveways, but a container placed on a public street in Old Colorado City may need an El Paso County or City right-of-way permit, which the office flags upfront. Third, the container is dropped where directed, boards are laid under the wheels to protect concrete and pavers, and it is hauled off on your scheduled date. A dumpster rental is a load-it-yourself container, the crew delivers and removes it, not the labor of filling it, which keeps the flat rate honest.

Most residential rentals run several days at no extra charge, which suits the stop-start pace of a weekend remodel near Colorado College or a phased Rockrimmon basement project. Overloading past the fill line is the main limitation, debris must sit level with the top rail so the container is safe to haul on I-25 and Powers Boulevard. If a job outgrows the 20-yard mid-project, a swap or a larger 30-yard can be arranged rather than paying twice.
