I can't be certain about that not being a in/out vs a out only, as i have only driven a out and deadlift. However if its a out the vertical section could be to protect the rails or aid in keeping the dumpster from hopping the rail.

In this one you can see the distance between the rollers and the top of the rail. That section is where the dumpster overlaps the rail.

One is 130 per ton C&d and msw
Another is 150 per ton c&d and msw ( offer discount on the tonnage after you hit x amount of tons a month)
Last one is 190 per ton C&d and msw ( discount after x amount of tons per month)
I still need to call the local landfill (waste management, and last local transfer station, again waste management)
So running the numbers off of those numbers it seems if I started with 5 dumpsters,
1 10 yard
2 15 yard
2 20 yard
There is some profit to be made. I will be doing this in addition to my day job so i will still have income coming in. I need to find out how much it’s gonna cost to buy containers and get them delivered. Working on that now. If all goes well, should be able to get starting by springtime. -
15's will be small to medium roofs and medium sized construction projects. 4-5 tons would be a heavy average.
20's are the most common for asphalt roofing. Easily up to 6-7 tons if its shingles. -
Dont forget to plan for things like overloaded boxes, contaminants like trash in a c&d load, paint batteries ect.. how will you enforce it? How long will the rental be for? Will it be dumpster plus dump fee? Or flat rate?
At 5 tons your in for 650 bucks dump fee minimum. Can you dump by the yard? Some places will do 40-80 a yard no weight charge... your only getting paid for one half the time don't forget. Dropping off makes no money. Theres alot that goes into it. Its good you have other incomes to offset it.... -
Dont understand where the money is?
In Chicagoland area dumpster rates are 300 ish for a 10 yrs, up to 500ish for a 40 yrd. After paying dumping fees (180a ton) wheres the profit?
These dumping fees must be much less than you guys are quoting.
If I dump 1 1/2 tons in a 10 yrd er you'd be losing money -
slim shady Thanks this.

15 get 1.5
20 gets 2-3
30 gets 3-4

A 10 yrd rental fee is $300. ish
So you made $30. -
Ok, good on you for recognizing having to check your load, but where are you dumping that you can mix c&d and msw without being charged? More than a estimated 5 percent trash in a c&d load here will add 75 per ton to discourage dirty loads. And thats the transfer stations prerogative as to when it breaks that point.
I rent a dumpster im paying for space. Not weight, i can't weigh my trash or debris before putting it in, so how does anyone know what anything weighs?
Ok, lets assume you are correct across the board, have you spoken to anyone in your area (small operations) doing this type of work?
Look im not trying to dissuade you, and your area may work completely differently than mine, but theres alot that doesn't make sense to me from some of your answers is all...
