A 30 yard dumpster measures roughly 22 feet long, 7.5 feet wide and 6 feet high, and it holds about 9 pickup truck loads of debris. In Elk Grove, CA the 30 yard dumpster rental price runs inside the same measured band as our dumpster rental cost page below. It suits roof tear-offs, whole-house cleanouts and remodels.
Picture a box about 22 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, 6 feet tall. That is the 30 yard dumpster size most crews order for a full kitchen gut or a two-story roof job in Elk Grove. Compare that to a 10 yard dumpster rental, which fits a single-room cleanout, or a 20 yard dumpster rental, the usual mid-size pick. If you are not sure which box fits your pile, our dumpster sizes and dimensions page walks through all four. Delivery trucks need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the unit to drop it flat, so measure your driveway or curb before you call. Placement near Old Town Elk Grove or a tighter residential lot sometimes means using street space instead, and that can trigger a permit question worth sorting out with the city first.

Paint, tires, batteries, appliances with refrigerant and anything soaked in fuel usually can't ride along, and most yards limit certain construction debris too. Check our what cannot go in a dumpster guide before loading, because a banned item found at the transfer station can mean a return trip and a fee. Weight matters as much as volume. A 30 yard box fills with shingles or concrete faster than most people expect, and our dumpster weight limits page breaks down what typically trips an overage charge. If you're running a job site with a crew, pair the dumpster with construction dumpster rental service and keep the yard clear under OSHA 1926.25, which requires scrap and debris cleared from work areas as you go.
Pricing depends mostly on rental length and how full the box gets before pickup.
| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|
| day | $51 | $75 | $112 |
| week | $426 | $600 | $778 |
| month | $91 | $108 | $500 |
Weekend rentals run as a flat premium rate rather than a per-day multiple, so ask when you book if your project falls over a Saturday and Sunday. Delivery is billed separately in most cases; expect a delivery fee on top of the box rate. For a side-by-side on all sizes, see dumpster rental cost or check what daily rental looks like if your job might run short, similar to how porta potty rental per day works for restrooms. Elk Grove homeowners tackling a renovation often pair a 30 yard box with a home renovation porta potty for the crew, since Elk Grove permits for dumpster placement in the right-of-way are not something to guess at; confirming with the city avoids a fine after delivery.
If the box sits on a public street or right-of-way, that placement needs confirming with the city; driveway or private-lot placement usually does not. Our dumpster permit requirements page covers the general pattern, but call ahead since rules shift by location, especially near Franklin, 6.9 miles southwest, or tighter lots close to Florin, 6.4 miles north.
Most renters keep one for a week, matching the weekly rate table above, but daily and monthly terms are both available. Longer renovation projects near Galt, 12.3 miles southeast, often extend to a full month rather than re-ordering delivery each week.
A 20 yard box suits a garage cleanout or small remodel; a 30 yard handles a full roof or whole-house job. See 20 yard dumpster rental for the smaller option side by side with this page's sizing.
Usually yes, but check local rules first since some furniture types carry disposal fees. Review what cannot go in a dumpster before loading anything questionable to avoid a rejected load at pickup.
