Sizes
Dumpster Sizes Available in Burlington
A 15 fits most Burlington projects. Every roll-off dumpster size below is measured in cubic yards of debris capacity, and each comes with a set weight allowance.

10-Yard Dumpster
About 12 ft long, 8 ft wide and 3.5 ft high; holds roughly three to four pickup loads.
A 10-yard is right for tile, brick, dirt or broken concrete in Burlington, or a quick cleanout where a big box would sit half empty.
15-Yard Dumpster
About 16 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4 ft high; holds roughly five to six pickup loads.
Popular for basement cleanouts and single-room remodels where a 10 is too tight and a 20 won't fit the driveway.
20-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4.5 ft high; holds roughly six to eight pickup loads.
The most-rented roll-off size across Minot & North Central. It holds a full kitchen, a two-car garage cleanout or the tear-off from most single-story roofs.
30-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 6 ft high; holds roughly nine to twelve pickup loads.
Taller walls add capacity without extra length, a good fit for big cleanouts and siding jobs.
40-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 8 ft high; holds roughly twelve to sixteen pickup loads.
Reserved for the biggest jobs in Burlington: new construction, commercial demo and large cleanouts.

What goes in
Types of Waste You Can Put in a Dumpster
Construction Debris
Concrete, drywall, lumber, roofing materials, flooring and general renovation debris all go in. Heavy material like concrete and brick needs a 10-yard on its own.
Household Junk
Basement storage, water-damaged boxes, old furniture and garage clutter are all fine. Mattresses may carry a small handling fee.
Yard Waste
Clean green waste, cut branches and landscaping debris go in. Cottonwood limbs, old fencing and sod are common.
Prohibited items. No hazardous waste, farm chemicals, pesticides, fuel, oil, batteries, tires or asbestos. Old houses can hide asbestos in floor tile, siding and pipe wrap, so test before demolition.
How to keep your Burlington dumpster cost down
- Pick the right size up front. One correctly sized container is cheaper than a second haul or an overweight charge.
- Keep heavy material separate. Concrete, brick, dirt and rock hit the weight limit fast. Put them in their own small container and use a larger one for bulky, light debris.
- Keep snow and rain out. A tarp keeps snow and rain from adding weight you pay for at the scale.
- Break things down. Take apart furniture, cut long boards and flatten boxes. A broken-down couch takes a third of the space.
- Load flat and full. Lay large, flat items on the bottom and fill gaps with smaller debris. Air pockets cost money.
Debris from Burlington goes to permitted landfills and transfer stations serving Ward County. Disposal costs are built into your price up to the included tonnage, which is why weight matters more than volume.

How it works
How Dumpster Rental Works in Burlington
Choose Your Dumpster Size
Tell us the debris and the space you have, and we'll pick the size on the call.
Schedule Dumpster Delivery
Choose your drop-off date and tell us where to place it. We bring boards to protect a driveway in the homes near the Des Lacs and Souris rivers or anywhere else.
Fill the Dumpster
Tarp it whenever you step away. In North Dakota, snow and rain in the box count as weight at the scale.
Schedule Dumpster Pickup
After a blizzard, pickup may slide a day while streets are plowed. We'll keep you posted.
Weather in Burlington
The Des Lacs and Souris rivers meet at Burlington, and spring runoff can affect low-lying homes. Winters are cold and windy.
Dumpster placement
Most Burlington homes fit a 15 or 20. Low-lying lots near the rivers may be soft in spring.
Permits
Dumpster Permits and Placement Rules in Burlington
Street placement permits
If the container sits on your driveway or other private property in Burlington, you usually don't need a permit. If it has to go on a street, boulevard, alley or sidewalk, approval comes from the City of Burlington. Ask about the fee, how many days it covers and whether cones or reflectors are required, and have it in hand before delivery day.
HOA, covenant and landlord rules
Renting? Get your landlord's okay before a container goes on the property, especially on shared driveways.
What the delivery spot needs
The truck needs a straight approach of about 60 feet, roughly 10 to 12 feet of width and clear overhead space with no low branches, wires or eaves above the drop spot. In winter, the spot and the path to it need to be plowed or shoveled. Leave room for a car to pass on shared driveways, and keep the container clear of mailbox and garbage-cart access.
Timing
Winter, Spring Thaw and the Best Time to Rent in Burlington
May through October books fastest. In winter, we confirm road conditions before trips to rural towns and the Turtle Mountains. Local conditions in Burlington: cold winters, river-valley wind and spring runoff.
Winter dumpster rental
Snow in an uncovered container can add hundreds of pounds. A tarp is the cheapest way to avoid an overage in winter.
Spring thaw and road limits
If your drop spot is lawn or gravel, wait until the frost is out and the ground firms up, usually by mid-May.
