Most kitchen remodels need a dumpster for about one week, and our rentals include 7 days. Have it delivered on demolition day and schedule pickup when the demo debris is out. Extra days cost $25 each, so a 14-day rental adds $175.
How many rental days does a kitchen remodel take?
| Remodel plan | Days on site | Extra-day cost |
|---|---|---|
| Demo and haul-off in one week | 7 days | $0 |
| Demo, then debris trickles in over 10 days | 10 days | $75 |
| Two-week remodel, dumpster stays throughout | 14 days | $175 |
| Demo week, then a second dumpster for the install mess | Two 7-day rentals | Second rental at the flat rate |
Extra days are $25 each after the 7 included days.
When should the dumpster arrive?
Have it delivered the day before or the morning of demolition day. Book by 3 PM for guaranteed next-day delivery between 7 AM–5 PM. The driver texts or calls 20–30 minutes out, and you don't need to be home if the drop spot is clear.
What size fits a kitchen remodel?
A 20-yard dumpster fits a typical kitchen: cabinets, counters, drywall, flooring and packaging. Mixed remodel debris weighs about 417 lb per loose cubic yard, per EPA, so a level 20-yard can reach about 4 tons. That is over the 3 included tons, at $75 per ton. Granite and tile push it higher.
What if the dumpster fills before the remodel ends?
Call and we swap it: the full dumpster leaves and an empty one arrives. A swap is billed as a new rental. If your contractor will add a lot of install waste later, two shorter rentals can cost less than keeping one dumpster for weeks.

More questions: how Long to Rent a Dumpster for a Kitchen Remodel
Can I keep a dumpster for a month during a remodel?
You can. After the 7 included days, each day costs $25. For a 30-day rental, that's 23 extra days, or $575. A swap partway through may cost less if the first dumpster fills.
Can old kitchen appliances go in the remodel dumpster?
Stoves and dishwashers can go in. Fridges, freezers and other Freon appliances cost $50 each, because the refrigerant must be recovered before disposal under 40 CFR 82.155.
