Dumpster Rental in
Springfield, TN
A dumpster in Springfield takes one phone call: pick a size from 10 to 40 yards, set the delivery date, and the container arrives. The 10 yard runs $640-$715 with 10 days to fill it.
Mon–Fri 7am–7pm CT
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
No quote-chasing: the numbers for Tennessee are on the page. One call books the container, one account manager owns the order until pickup, and the delivery date you set is the one the truck works to.
Roughly 18,000 people call Springfield home. Most rentals here come from older houses in Highland Estates, Belle Haven, and Sleepy Hollows. Those homes tend to give up roofing tear-offs, drywall, and mixed renovation debris more often than pure household junk. A roof will run you 20 yards minimum. Pull multiple layers of shingles, and plan on a 30. Everything else, from a kitchen remodel to a full cleanout, usually fits a 20 or a 30 without the weight biting you.
The container will likely sit on a concrete driveway in a neighborhood like Summit View or Eden Pointe. Those take a loaded roll-off well. The check that matters is overhead. The truck tilts its bed high to set the container down, so a low limb or a service line over the drive stops more deliveries than anything at ground level. Stand where you want the dumpster and look up. If you are off Memorial Boulevard or United States Highway 41, also give the gate a thought. The truck needs roughly 10 to 12 feet of width. A pickup that fits a farm lane does not mean a roll-off will.
Dumpster Sizes in Springfield
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Springfield, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
A 10 yard holds about three pickup-truck loads. That covers a closet-by-closet cleanout, a deck teardown, or the tile and mortar from one bathroom. $640 to $715.
Holds about 3 pickup truck loads or 50–70 trash bags. Footprint roughly one standard parking space. Heavy-debris configs can carry up to 10 tons.
Best for dirt and soil removal, brick and masonry, concrete demo, and asphalt shingles. Also fits small bath remodels and garage cleanouts.
The 20 yard is the renovation workhorse, $730 to $815. Cabinets, subfloor and trim from a kitchen and a bath together fit with room to spare.
Holds 8–10 pickup truck loads or about 120 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-house decluttering, mid-size garage and attic cleanouts, mid-size landscaping, and roof replacements on smaller homes.
A 40 yard is for jobs that would otherwise take two containers: a full gut-and-remodel, storm cleanup across a property, a commercial refit. $889 to $985, the tallest container we place — same footprint as the 20 and 30, with eight-foot walls.
Holds about 12 pickup truck loads or 230–250 trash bags. The 8-ft walls make rear-door loading essential for bulky items.
Best for new construction, major demos, full kitchen-and-bath gut renos, and large commercial cleanouts. Note: dense debris (concrete, shingles) needs a heavy-debris bin instead.
When a 10 would overflow and a 20 will not fit the drive, the 15 yard splits the difference — extra height on the same length, room for a whole-garage clearout.
Holds about 4.5 pickup truck loads or 80–100 trash bags. Roughly the volume of 15 standard washing machines.
Best for multi-room remodels, flooring removal, garage cleanouts, light demo, larger landscaping, and deck builds. Heavy materials need a smaller heavy-debris bin.
The 30 yard runs $760 to $835 and has tall walls, so it earns its price on bulk rather than weight: siding, framing, a whole-house clearout.
Holds about 9 pickup truck loads or 170–190 trash bags. Footprint roughly two parking spaces end-to-end.
Best for whole-house cleanouts, large home demos, active construction, and commercial mixed debris. Note: cannot accept dirt, concrete, brick, or shingles.
Residential and Construction Dumpster Rental in Springfield, TN
For homeowners
Most household jobs are cleanouts and remodels: furniture, boxes, carpet, cabinets, the layers a house builds up over years. That debris is bulky rather than heavy, so a 10 or 20 yard on a Springfield driveway usually covers it, with room left to park beside it.
For contractors
Roofing crews watch weight, not space: a tear-off hits the tonnage allowance long before the rim. Demo crews are the same with plaster and tile. Framing and cleanup phases flip it — bulky, light, volume-driven. Say what phase the Springfield job is in and the container follows.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Springfield
- Call for a quote. Describe the debris, the address, and the dates. One account manager takes the order and stays on it.
- Pick the size and the spot. Clear a straight run for the truck and check for low branches or wires over the drop point.
- Load it. Keep everything level with or below the top rail, and keep heavy material in a low, even layer.
- Call for pickup. Ring the same number when you are done, or at the end of the rental period.
How Much Does a Dumpster Rental Cost in Springfield, TN?
Dumpster rental pricing in Springfield varies with disposal costs, debris weight, rental length, and delivery distance. The ranges below reflect recent local pricing rather than a fixed quote — the final number depends on the size you pick and what goes in it.
Estimated Dumpster Rental Costs in Springfield
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $640 – $715 | — | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $730 – $815 | $220 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $760 – $835 | — | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $889 – $985 | — | Up to 10 days | 5–8 tons |
* Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance from the yard, fuel, and how easy the drop spot is to reach. Where it shows as included, it is already inside the range.
** Each rental carries a base weight allowance. Debris over that allowance is billed as an adjustment at pickup.
Why Is There a Price Range?
Five things move the number inside that range:
- Debris type. Clean wood and household junk dispose cheaply. Shingles, plaster, tile, dirt and concrete are billed by weight and hit the allowance early.
- Weight. A container can reach its tonnage cap while it still looks half empty, which is the single most common surprise on a first rental.
- Rental length. The quote covers 10 days. Longer rentals are extended for an additional fee.
- Delivery distance. How far the truck runs from the yard to your address, and whether it can make a straight approach.
- Local disposal rates. Landfill and transfer-station fees are set locally and are the largest single input to the price.
What Is Included in the Base Rental?
- Delivery to your Springfield address on the date you book
- A 10-day rental period
- Pickup and haul-away when you call
- Disposal up to the size's included tonnage
- One account manager handling the order from quote through pickup
Charged separately: weight over the included allowance, days past the rental period, and any load containing prohibited material.
How to Get an Exact Quote
Have these ready and the quote takes a couple of minutes:
- What the debris is — remodel, roof tear-off, cleanout, yard waste, concrete
- Roughly how much of it there is
- The delivery address and where the container should sit
- The date you want it dropped
Call (888) 664-7740 and describe the job. If two sizes both look plausible, say so — the gap between them is usually smaller than the cost of a second haul.
What You Can Put in a Dumpster in Springfield
Most of what comes out of a house or a job site is fine. The restricted list is set by the disposal facility, not by us, and it is short.
Accepted
- Household junk, furniture, and general trash
- Renovation debris — drywall, lumber, trim, cabinets
- Flooring, carpet, tile, and countertops
- Roofing shingles and underlayment
- Yard waste, brush, and branches
- Appliances with the refrigerant already removed
- Concrete, brick, dirt, and asphalt — mention these when you book, because they are priced by weight
Not accepted
- Paint, solvents, and other liquids
- Motor oil, fuel, and antifreeze
- Batteries and propane tanks
- Tires
- Asbestos and other hazardous material
- Medical or biological waste
- Appliances still holding refrigerant
Everything has to sit level with or below the top rail — an overfilled container cannot be tarped, so the driver has to leave it until the load comes down. If you are not sure about an item, ask before it goes over the side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Springfield dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Springfield dumpster costs range from $640 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $985 for a 40 yard dumpster.
Each dumpster size includes a maximum allowable tonnage and a 10-day rental period. If you need the dumpster longer, you can extend your rental period for an additional fee. Delivery is quoted separately and moves with distance, size, and access. The full breakdown by size, including the delivery estimate and the included tonnage, is in the pricing section above.
Usually quickly, but it depends on the week. Deliveries are grouped by direction, so how soon a container reaches Springfield comes down to what is already on the schedule for that part of the map.
If the project has a firm start date, call a couple of days ahead of it. Same-week drops happen all the time; counting on one without asking first is how people end up waiting.
A street placement in Springfield usually comes down to whether the road is a state route and whether the spot blocks a lane. On narrower residential streets like those off East 5th Avenue, the city often wants the container on the driveway instead. If a street spot is your only option, expect to keep a few feet clear for traffic. Check with the public works office before the truck arrives. A ticket or a forced move costs more than the phone call.
Start with what is leaving the building. A 10 covers one bathroom or one room of flooring. A 20 handles a kitchen. Several rooms at once, or an outbuilding full of old storage, is where the 30 earns its keep.
Roofing throws off the usual math because shingles are dense, and the load hits its tonnage cap while the container still looks half empty. The same goes for concrete, brick and dirt. Say so at booking and the right size follows. If you are stuck between two sizes, the price gap is smaller than the cost of a second haul.
One end of Springfield might look like new construction around Summit View. The other holds older homes near Highland Estates. ZTERS delivers to both, and to the apartments at Flats at Mooreland and The Meadows, plus the townhomes on 22nd Avenue. We also cover the edges toward Greenbrier and White House. A driver meets a wide driveway in one spot and a tight turnaround in another. The delivery goes smoother when you can tell us exactly where the container is going.
Springfield's housing stock is mostly post-war. That matters because the permit rule applies to the street, not the driveway. A roll-off on private property usually needs no permit here. If it has to sit in the public right-of-way, check with Robertson County's public works or the city's engineering office. They issue the street permit. They will tell you if your spot needs cones or flags. Two minutes on the phone settles it before delivery day.
Give the driver a level spot, pavement or packed gravel, with a straight approach behind it and nothing overhead. The bed tilts higher than the container stands, so a low branch or a service line can stop the whole drop.
Move cars the night before, unlock any gate on the route in, and mark the spot if you will be out. Plywood under the rails protects a soft or newly sealed driveway. A drop the truck cannot make becomes a trip charge and a new delivery date, which is the outcome all of this avoids.
