Dumpster Sizes Available in Harrisville
A 10 or 15 fits most Harrisville projects. Every roll-off dumpster size below is measured in cubic yards of debris capacity, and each comes with a set weight allowance.

10-Yard Dumpster
About 12 ft long, 8 ft wide and 3.5 ft high; holds roughly three to four pickup loads.
The pick for dense debris like plaster, concrete or dirt. Weight fills it before volume does.
15-Yard Dumpster
About 16 ft long, 8 ft wide and 4 ft high; holds roughly five to six pickup loads.
A mid-size container for kitchen remodels and garage purges around the neighborhoods off Route 107.

30-Yard Dumpster
About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 6 ft high; holds roughly nine to twelve pickup loads.
A construction dumpster for additions, new builds and whole-house gut jobs. Taller walls add capacity without a longer footprint.

About 22 ft long, 8 ft wide and 8 ft high; holds roughly twelve to sixteen pickup loads.
Maximum debris capacity for light, bulky waste. Needs a long, straight approach for delivery.
Which size fits common Harrisville projects
| Project | Size | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Single-story roof tear-off | 15-yard | One layer of shingles on a typical single-story home is heavy, so we size by squares, not volume. |
| Kitchen remodel | 15-yard | Cabinets, countertops, drywall and flooring from one kitchen fill most of a 15 without going over weight. |
| Storm tree cleanup | 20-yard | Downed limbs and brush are bulky but light, so a 20 holds a lot without weight trouble. |
| Fence replacement | 20-yard | Wood posts, rails and wire from a few hundred feet of fence fit a 20. Keep concrete footings for a smaller box. |
| Whole-property cleanup | 30-yard | Scrap, old fencing, brush and household junk from a whole rural property usually fill a 30. |
Dumpster Rental Prices in Harrisville
Dumpster rental cost comes down to three things: the size you need, how heavy your debris is and how many days you keep it. We price all three up front on the phone.
| Size | Typical price | Included tonnage | Rental period |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10-yard | $450–$565 | 1 ton | 7 days |
| 15-yard | $490–$625 | 1.5 tons | 7 days |
| 20-yard | $530–$675 | 2 tons | 7 days |
| 30-yard | $615–$795 | 3 tons | 7 days |
| 40-yard | $695–$895 | 4 tons | 7 days |
Harrisville is on a scheduled route, so the quote includes a trip charge for the distance. We keep it fair by grouping Providence County deliveries on the same days.
If you go over the included tonnage, overage charges apply per ton, and we tell you that rate before you book. Need a few extra days? That's a small daily fee.

Types of Waste You Can Put in a Dumpster
Construction Debris
Old basement paneling, ceiling tile, carpet and pad, plaster and lath, and roofing shingles are the most common construction loads we haul.
Household Junk
Furniture, appliances (with refrigerants removed), mattresses, boxes and everything from household, garage and basement cleanouts.
Yard Waste
Yard waste is fine, though many Rhode Island towns run their own leaf and yard-waste collection that may be cheaper for leaves alone. Brush, storm limbs and old fencing are common.
Prohibited items. What cannot go in: hazardous waste, chemicals, liquid paint, oil, antifreeze, batteries, tires, pressurized tanks, medical waste and asbestos. Dried latex paint cans are usually fine; wet paint is not. Rhode Island Resource Recovery runs Eco-Depot collection events for household hazardous waste.
How to keep your Harrisville dumpster cost down
- Keep rain and snow out. A tarp keeps rain and snow from adding weight you pay for at the scale.
- Load flat and full. Lay large, flat items on the bottom and fill gaps with smaller debris. Air pockets cost money.
- Keep heavy material separate. Concrete, brick, dirt and rock hit the weight limit fast. Put them in their own small container and use a larger one for bulky, light debris.
- Pick the right size up front. One correctly sized container is cheaper than a second haul or an overweight charge.
- Pull out scrap metal and donations. Clean scrap metal can often be sold, and usable furniture can be donated. Both free up space.
Nearly all trash in Rhode Island, including roll-off debris from Harrisville, ends up at the Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation's Central Landfill in Johnston. Disposal costs are built into your price up to the included tonnage, which is why weight matters more than volume.
Dumpster Rental for Different Projects

Home Renovation Dumpster Rental
Renovation debris from homes around the neighborhoods off Route 107 runs heavy on plaster and tile, so we size by weight as well as volume.
Construction Dumpster Rental
New construction and additions in Providence County generate framing scrap, packaging and drywall offcuts. We keep a fresh box on site as you go.
Roofing Dumpster Rental
Shingles are heavy. One layer of asphalt shingles on a typical single-story home fits a 10 or 15, and we set the box close to the drip line so the crew can toss straight in.
Moving & Cleanout Dumpster Rental
Moving out of the restored mill village or clearing a house before listing? A 15 or 20 handles furniture, boxes and years of basement storage.
Junk Removal Dumpster Rental
Doing your own junk removal costs less than a haul-away crew. You load it, we take it.
Estate Cleanout Dumpster Rental
Estate cleanouts take time. Keep the container as long as you need while you sort what stays and what goes.
Commercial Dumpster Rental
Businesses near the Jesse M. Smith Memorial Library use short-term containers for remodels and turnovers.
How Dumpster Rental Works in Harrisville
Choose Your Dumpster Size
Call (401) 238-7172 and tell us what you're throwing out. We'll recommend a size based on the project, not the biggest box on the lot.

Call when it's full or you're done, and we'll haul it away.

Dumpster placement
Mill-village lots can be compact. A 10 or 15 fits most.
Dumpster Permits and Placement Rules in Harrisville
Street placement permits
If the container sits on your driveway or other private property in Harrisville, you usually don't need a permit. If it has to go on a street, boulevard, alley or sidewalk, approval comes from the Town of Burrillville. Ask about the fee, how many days it covers and whether cones or reflectors are required, and have it in hand before delivery day.
HOA, condo and landlord rules
If you live in a newer subdivision in Harrisville, check your covenants for container rules before delivery. Short time limits are common, and we can schedule pickup to beat the deadline.
What the delivery spot needs
The truck needs a straight approach of about 60 feet, roughly 10 to 12 feet of width and clear overhead space with no low branches, wires or eaves above the drop spot. In winter, the spot and the path to it need to be plowed or shoveled. On rural and wooded lots, point out your septic tank, leach field, well and buried lines, and keep the container off soft ground after heavy rain.
Storms, Seasons and the Best Time to Rent in Harrisville
Northern Rhode Island gets more snow than the coast, so outdoor projects bunch up from April through November. Winter is busy with basement and interior remodels in the mill-village homes. Local conditions in Harrisville: snowy winters and wooded lots in northwest Rhode Island.
Winter and nor'easters
Heavy rain and wet snow in an open container add weight at the scale. A tarp is the cheapest way to avoid an overage.
Old homes, coast and summer
Hurricane and tropical storm season runs into the fall. If a storm is forecast, call us: we can pull a container early or make sure it's tarped and secured.
