It's always a good idea to round up — if you're between sizes, choose the larger dumpster to avoid overage fees.
If your dumpster exceeds the included weight limit, an overage fee may apply based on the extra weight recorded at the disposal facility. Using our calculator helps you choose the right dumpster size upfront so you can avoid surprise charges. When in doubt, give us a call at (774) 203-8112 and we'll help you pick the best option.
