Renovation Debris
Home Renovation Cleanups
Kitchen and bathroom remodels create more debris than most homeowners expect. Cabinets, countertops, drywall, old tile, and flooring add up fast, and a kitchen remodel alone often fills a 20-yard dumpster once appliances and cabinetry come out. Bathroom remodels tend to run smaller, usually fitting a 10- to 15-yard container unless you’re also replacing the tub or removing tile down to the studs.
Quincy has a lot of older homes, and older homes mean more remodeling work. According to U.S. Census data, the median home in Adams County was built in 1958, and about a quarter of homes in the county went up before 1940. Homes from that era commonly need updated plumbing, electrical, kitchens, and bathrooms, which is a big reason renovation debris makes up such a large share of our residential dumpster orders.

Garage and Basement Cleanouts
Garages and basements are where things pile up for years without anyone noticing, until it’s time to actually clear one out. Old furniture, tools, sports equipment, and boxes that never got unpacked after a move all add up. A single car garage cleanout usually fits a 10-yard dumpster, while a two-car garage or a garage plus basement combined often needs a 15- or 20-yard container.
If you’re not sure how much you have, walk through the space and picture how many pickup truck loads it would take to clear it out. A 10-yard dumpster holds about 3 pickup truck loads, and a 20-yard holds about 6. That simple math gets most homeowners to the right size on the first guess.

Estate Cleanouts
Estate Cleanouts
Clearing out a family member’s home is rarely simple, and the last thing you need is to worry about the logistics of the trash. Estate cleanouts usually involve years of accumulated belongings across an entire house, which is why most estate jobs call for a 20 to 30-yard dumpster rather than something sized for a single room. We keep this process straightforward. Tell us the size of the home and roughly how full it is, and we’ll recommend a size instead of leaving you to guess during an already difficult time.

Know Before You Load
What You Can and Cannot Put In a Residential Dumpster
You Can Typically Throw Away
- Furniture, mattresses, and old appliances
- Drywall, flooring, cabinets, and general remodeling debris
- Boxes, household clutter, and garage or basement items
- Yard waste in smaller quantities (ask us if your project is yard waste heavy, since we have a dedicated option for that)
You Cannot Put In a Residential Dumpster
- Paint, chemicals, and other hazardous materials
- Tires and batteries
- Propane tanks and water heaters (check with us first)
- Anything flammable, toxic, or asbestos-containing
If you’re not sure about a specific item, call us before you throw it in. It’s a much easier fix than sorting it back out after pickup.
Pricing
Residential Dumpster Pricing
Most residential dumpster rentals in Quincy run between 300 and 500 dollars for a standard 10 to 20 yard container over a normal 7 to 10 day rental period. Your price depends on the size you choose, how much your debris weighs, and whether your project runs longer than the standard rental window. Heavier materials like tile, old countertops, or a full garage of tools and equipment can push a load closer to its weight limit, so tell us what you’re getting rid of when you call, and we’ll size it correctly the first time.
We build delivery, pickup, and standard disposal into one flat price, so the number we quote is the number you pay.

Questions
Residential Dumpster Rental Questions
What size dumpster do I need for a garage cleanout?
Most single-car garage cleanouts fit a 10-yard dumpster, which holds about 3 pickup truck loads. A two-car garage or a garage combined with basement items usually needs a 15- or 20-yard container. If you’re unsure, it’s usually cheaper to size up than to pay for a second dumpster later.
Will a dumpster damage my driveway?
It can if it’s placed directly on bare concrete or asphalt without protection. Laying plywood or wooden planks under the dumpster before delivery prevents scratches and cracking. We’re happy to talk through placement options when we schedule your delivery.
How long can I keep a residential dumpster?
Most residential rentals run 7 to 10 days as a standard period, which covers most weekend and week-long projects. If your renovation runs longer, we can extend your rental for a low daily rate instead of forcing a strict cutoff.
Can I put yard waste in my residential dumpster?
Small amounts of yard waste are usually fine mixed in with general debris. Larger amounts, like a full landscaping overhaul or storm cleanup, should go in a dedicated yard waste dumpster instead, since Adams County disposal rules require yard waste to be handled separately at scale.
Do I need a permit for a residential dumpster in Quincy?
If the dumpster stays on your own driveway or property, you typically do not need a permit. A permit is only required if it needs to sit on a street, sidewalk, or public right of way, which is uncommon for most residential cleanouts.
