When to pick a different box

  • swap_horizConcrete, dirt, brick, or asphalt — never in a 30 yard: a box this size loaded with heavy material is unhaulable and blows the 3-ton allowance instantly; use the 10 Yard Heavy box (flat rate, no weight limit)
  • swap_horizSingle-room projects — a 10 or 20 yard costs less and does the job
  • swap_horizSites with low overhead clearance — the 6 ft walls plus the lift need about 23 ft of clear air; wires and mature trees are the usual blockers

lightbulbTips before you book the 30 yard

  • arrow_forwardVolume is rarely the constraint on a 30 — weight is. Keep dense debris (tile, plaster, wet material) to a fraction of the load and fill the rest with light demo.
  • arrow_forwardThe 6 ft walls mean most loading happens through the rear swing door — plan your loading path so heavy items roll or dolly straight in.
  • arrow_forwardFor construction sites, one 30 yard usually replaces two smaller hauls — fewer delivery windows, less coordination, lower total cost.
  • arrow_forwardRunning long on a big project? Extra days are $50/day with provider approval — cheaper than a rushed second container.

Dumpster rules & permits in Lafayette

Heads up: Lafayette has some of the strictest street rules in Contra Costa County. The essentials:

gavelOn your own Lafayette property: no permit

Driveway or private jobsite placement needs nothing from the city — and given Lafayette's street rules below, it's the way to go when possible.

gavelOn the street: permit + deposit + 5-day max

Lafayette requires a Right-of-Way (Encroachment) Permit for any dumpster or POD on the street, capped at 5 days, with a refundable street-damage deposit on top of the permit fee (lovelafayette.org). Plan your project window accordingly.

gavelThe right-of-way is wider than you think

On most Lafayette residential streets the public right-of-way extends roughly 20–25 feet from the road's centerline — even the shoulder in front of your house may legally be street. When in doubt, keep the box on the driveway.

gavelHillside streets need a plan

Roll-off trucks want ~60 feet of straight approach and 23 feet of overhead clearance — a real consideration on the narrow, oak-covered lanes of Happy Valley and Reliez Valley.

gavelLafayette remodels: 65% debris recycling

California's CALGreen code requires permitted Lafayette projects to divert at least 65% of construction debris. Our providers haul to certified facilities, keeping your paperwork clean.

Rules and fees are set by the City of Lafayette and can change — always confirm current requirements with the city before placing a container in the public right-of-way.

FAQ — 30 yard dumpster rental in Lafayette

How big is a 30 yard dumpster?expand_more
A 30 yard roll-off measures about 22 ft long × 8 ft wide × 6 ft tall and holds 30 cubic yards — roughly 9–12 full-size pickup truck loads. It uses the same driveway footprint as a 20 yard; the extra capacity is in the taller walls.
How much does a 30 yard dumpster cost?expand_more
A 30 yard dumpster starts at $799 when you book 7 or more days ahead — shorter-notice deliveries cost more. The price includes delivery, pickup, a 7-day rental, and 3 tons of disposal. Extra days are $50/day and overweight loads are billed per ton after pickup.
Is a 30 yard dumpster big enough for a whole-house cleanout?expand_more
For most homes, yes — a 30 yard swallows the contents of a typical 3–4 bedroom house: furniture, boxes, garage overflow, and yard extras. Genuine hoarding situations or very large estates sometimes need a swap for a second box mid-project, which you can arrange in your booking dashboard.
Can I put concrete or dirt in a 30 yard dumpster?expand_more
No — heavy material never goes in a 30 yard. Even a shallow layer of concrete across a box this size exceeds the 3-ton allowance and can make the container unsafe to haul. Clean concrete, dirt, brick, and asphalt go in the 10 Yard Heavy box at a flat rate with no weight limit.
How do I load a 30 yard dumpster with 6-foot walls?expand_more
Use the rear swing door — every 30 yard roll-off has one. Walk or dolly heavy items straight in, stack toward the front, and close the door for the last few feet of top-loading. Keep everything below the rim for legal transport.
Does a 30 yard dumpster need more space than a 20 yard?expand_more
On the ground, no — both are 22 ft × 8 ft. The differences are height (6 ft vs 4.5 ft walls) and clearance: the truck needs about 60 ft of straight approach and 23 ft overhead to raise the rails, so check for low wires and tree limbs.
How much does a 30 yard dumpster cost in Lafayette, CA?expand_more
A 30 yard roll-off in Lafayette starts at $799 when you book 7+ days ahead — shorter-notice deliveries cost more. That covers delivery to your Lafayette driveway or jobsite, pickup, a 7-day rental, and 3 tons of disposal. Extra days are $50/day; overweight is billed per ton after pickup.
Do I need a permit for a 30 yard dumpster in Lafayette?expand_more
Not if it sits entirely on your private Lafayette driveway or property — that's how most rentals here work. If the box must go on a public street, Lafayette requires an encroachment permit — see the local rules section on this page for the specifics. Apply before your delivery date.
