Mon–Fri 8am–8pm ET
Fair. Simple. Reliable.
ZTERS keeps the rental simple. You see the price before you call, you talk to one person instead of a queue, and the container lands on the day you booked. The same goes for homeowners, storefronts and crews.
Ridgeland's mix of older highway-era homes and newer construction near Ridge Pointe Square changes what typically fills a container here. Older properties tend to produce more plaster, wood paneling and outdated fixtures during a remodel, while newer builds generate framing scrap and packaging from ongoing construction. A yard cleanup near Harold Turpin Park often adds brush and storm debris rather than building material. Sizing usually comes down to whether the job is a renovation or a straightforward cleanout.
Overhead clearance along US 17 and the narrower side streets branching off it can limit where a truck sets down in parts of Ridgeland. Properties closer to North Jacob Smart Boulevard tend to have wider, more open driveways, while older in-town lots may require careful spotting around trees and utility lines. Homes toward Hardeeville share a similar mix of newer subdivision streets and older narrower roads. Before delivery day, check for any low branches or wires near the driveway and make sure the path in stays clear of parked vehicles.
Dumpster Sizes in Ridgeland
ZTERS rents five dumpster sizes in Ridgeland, from single-room cleanouts to demolition-scale jobs.
- Dedicated account manager
- Best-in-class customer service
- Flat pricing, quoted up front
Smallest of the fleet, the 10 yard takes a bathroom gut or one room's flooring without wasting driveway. $616 to $745, and it leaves space for a car beside it.
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.
Renovation debris — cabinets, drywall, subfloor, trim — is what the 20 yard is built around, at $685 to $805. When two sizes both look right, this is the safer middle.
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.
The 40 yard, $815 to $916, is demolition scale: whole-structure teardowns, commercial cleanouts, major additions. It needs a long, straight, level approach — confirm the space before booking.
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.
The 15 yard carries the awkward loads: couches, cabinets, forty bags from an attic. Taller than the 10, no longer, so the truck places it anywhere a 10 goes.
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 $715 to $826 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 Ridgeland, SC
For homeowners
Cleanouts, moves, remodels, a yard that got away — homeowner debris is mostly light and bulky, and a 10 or 20 yard handles it from the driveway. If the job includes tile, plaster or concrete, say so when you book: dense material changes which size is right.
For contractors
Jobsite loads run heavier than household ones. Shingles, plaster and tile reach the weight allowance while the container still looks half empty, so crews often run a smaller container and swap it out rather than overload one. Stage it where the truck gets a straight shot in and the swaps stay quick.
The Dumpster Rental Process in Ridgeland
- 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 Ridgeland, SC?
Dumpster rental pricing in Ridgeland 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 Ridgeland
| Dumpster Size | Estimated Price Range | Delivery Estimate* | Rental Period | Included Tonnage** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Yard | $616 – $745 | $340 | Up to 10 days | 1–2 tons |
| 20 Yard | $685 – $805 | $515 | Up to 10 days | 2–4 tons |
| 30 Yard | $715 – $826 | $525 | Up to 10 days | 4–6 tons |
| 40 Yard | $815 – $916 | $630 | 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 Ridgeland 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 (866) 443-7930 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 Ridgeland
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
Ridgeland dumpster costs can be impacted by dumpster size, local landfill fees, fuel prices, and any required permits. Ridgeland dumpster costs range from $616 for a 10 yard dumpster up to $916 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.
A clear, level spot on your own driveway or yard is usually all that's needed, and that kind of placement doesn't require a permit. Putting the dumpster in the street instead requires approval from the Town of Ridgeland, so it's worth checking first if the driveway near Ridge Pointe Square or elsewhere won't work.
It depends where the trucks already are that week. Containers run routes, so a drop gets grouped with other stops heading the same direction, and how quickly one reaches Ridgeland moves with how full the schedule already is.
Call with the dates you have in mind and ask for the current window. Ordering a day or two before you actually want to start loading is the habit that saves people a scramble.
A 20 yard or larger container that has to sit in the street rather than a driveway is the case that usually needs a permit here. When that happens, the Town of Ridgeland's public works office along South Jacob Smart Boulevard handles the approval, and it's a short process for most residential jobs.
Measure the job by its debris, not its square footage. One bathroom or a single room of flooring is a 10. A full kitchen, cabinets and counters included, fills a 20. Whole-floor gut jobs and big cleanouts run to a 30.
The larger sizes share the same footprint and only grow taller, so a bigger container does not need a bigger driveway. The exception is heavy material: shingles, tile, concrete or dirt hit the weight limit long before the container looks full, so mention them when you call and let the tonnage set the size.
Three things before the truck arrives. Surface: a level spot on pavement or packed gravel, long enough for the container plus a straight run in behind it. Clearance: nothing overhead, because the bed tilts higher than the container stands and a low limb or service line stops the drop cold. Access: move vehicles off the drive the night before and unlock any gate the driver would need.
Plywood under the rails keeps a soft or freshly sealed driveway from marking. Mark the spot if you will not be home. A blocked drop usually turns into a trip charge and a rescheduled delivery, which is the one avoidable cost in the whole rental.
Street placement is allowed in Ridgeland only with a permit, and only where there's enough shoulder width for traffic to pass safely. Most residential jobs avoid the issue entirely by using the driveway instead, and streets like 3rd Avenue or Grays Highway that carry more traffic are less likely to be approved for placement.
