The 10 yard container in Naperville
The 10 yard is the one we send when the job is one room, one garage or one weekend. It is the shortest container we run, so it fits where the bigger boxes cannot — a tight residential driveway near downtown, a small lot, a back corner of a job site. The trade-off is volume: fill it with cabinets and drywall and it is full fast. It holds about 50 to 70 standard 33-gallon trash bags.
Where the 10 yard earns its keep is heavy material. Concrete, brick, asphalt, rock, tile and dirt hit the weight allowance long before a bigger box looks full — a 10 holds roughly 4,000 to 6,000 pounds of concrete or dirt. A patio or a driveway broken up and loaded level in a 10 is usually the cheaper, safer call. Tell us what is going in and we will say so.
Small remodels, heavy loads and the one-room cleanout
A bathroom tear-out — tile, tub, vanity, a bit of drywall — sits comfortably in a 10 yard. So does a garage that has been collecting boxes since the last move. Roofing works too: a 10 takes roughly 1,500 to 2,000 square feet of shingles. Bigger roofs go in a 15 or a 20.
Naperville homeowners also use it for what curbside service will not take. Groot, the City's contract hauler, takes remodel debris only in small amounts — drywall or paneling in no more than two 32-gallon cans or two bundles a week, and two rolls of carpet — and tires, hazardous liquids and landscape materials not at all. A 10 yard of busted concrete and old tile is the job it was built for.
Heavy material and the weight line
Weight is the limit that matters for this size. One to two tons is the included allowance. A 10 yard filled to the top with concrete or dirt can run past that, so for all-concrete loads, load it level, not heaped. Mixed household junk never gets close. If you do go over, a simple overage fee applies based on weight — and we tell you what that is before you load, not after.
Suitability
Is the 10 yard the right size for you?
Rough working figures. Weight, not volume, is what usually decides.
Choose the 10 yard for
- Bathroom or small kitchen remodel
- Garage or single-room cleanout
- Shingle roofs up to roughly 1,500–2,000 sq ft
- Broken-up concrete, asphalt, brick or tile loaded level
- Dirt and rock
Pick a different size for
- A whole-house cleanout — that is a 20 or 30
- Bulky furniture from several rooms
- A big pile of brush and limbs (bulky — a 15 or 20 eats it, in a clean green load)
- Tires, car batteries, oil, paint, pressurized tanks or chemicals — never in the box
Placing a 10 yard container on a Naperville-area property
It needs about 60 feet of clear space for the truck, a flat, stable surface and at least 25 feet of overhead clearance. On your own driveway or lot in Naperville we found no City permit for a roll-off; in the street, parkway, alley or sidewalk it needs a City Right-of-Way permit — $88, or $120 if part of the street is closed, plus a $5,000 bond and about 14 days for review (§ 9-1A-10). Other towns have their own rules — Glen Ellyn bans obstructing the street or parkway, North Aurora bans containers in the right-of-way, Wheaton wants a street occupancy permit. Check your HOA too: some cover containers in driveways. Boards go under the dumpster on request. Each town page covers its own code.

Answers
10 Yard Dumpster — questions we get asked
How much space does a 10 yard dumpster need?
The container is about 14 feet long. The truck needs about 60 feet of clear space to set it down and at least 25 feet of overhead clearance — watch for power lines and low branches. Move cars and bins out of the way, mark the spot if you will not be home, and the driver places it exactly where you asked.
Can I put concrete in a 10 yard dumpster?
Yes, and it is usually the right box for it — it holds roughly 4,000 to 6,000 pounds of concrete or dirt. Load it level with the sides, not heaped, so it stays under the weight limit and can be lifted safely. Patios, slabs and old driveways are the classic job for it.
How long do I get it for?
The standard rental is 3 to 7 days. Call if you need more time and we extend it at a reasonable daily rate. If you finish early, call and we schedule a prompt pickup.
Is it the cheapest option?
For a small job, yes. A 10 yard typically runs about $350 to $550, depending on where you are in Naperville and the type of debris. If you think you might overfill it, say so — too small means another pickup, and we can swap it for a bigger box if the project grows.
