Default Dumpster cost?

Looking to get a dumpster for the end of the driveway.

What do you pay per month/year for one? (ill call the local company on Monday but I'm just curious if its worth it)

I just remembered a buddy used to have one so I text him.
It's around 1600 a year in case anyone else on here is wondering.

So if 4 neighbors went in on it and agreed to only put regular household garbage in it then it would be worth it.

Drop fee and dump fees added on top of the yearly rent. Will depend on how far away the dump is.

We are in the county of Paintearth. Switched a year ago. Paying $45/month plus $50/dump. The guy is pretty good, when you need it dumped shoot him a text and its empty next day. As long as it doesn't start to stink we usually get it dumped every few months but we don't throw out much food and the kids are out of diapers so that helps with the smell.

The last place we used for a few years seemed to up their rate every couple months and the dumpster looked like it feel off a truck 20 years ago. Now we have a brand new one that I am scared to scratch when I have to move it.

Wasteco.

6 yard bin (big one).

We empty ours every 2 to 3 month. Just normal household garbage.

k so if the rent is around $40 a month (480) ,to empty its $60 and you get it dumped once a month($720) your looking at $1200 a year.
Not bad split a few ways unless the smell is intolerable with once a month empty, or you have a neighbor who is a dick and fills it with his latest reno debris.
